About me
I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from SUNY Binghamton, under the supervision of Prof. Yifan Zhang. During my Ph.D. studies, I also collaborated on a project with Prof. Kanad Ghose.
My current research interests lie in mobile systems, embedded systems, operating systems and virtualization, with a special emphasis on security. I am particularly passionate about designing and implementing robust security mechanisms using virtulization techniques for resource-constrained mobile environments. My goal is to fortify these mobile systems against a broad spectrum of attackes.
