New: IEEE Fellow (2009)
I am a Distinguished Member of Technical Staff with the Mathematics of Networks and Communications Research Department in the Mathematical and Algorithmic Sciences Research Center at Bell Laboratories, Alcatel-Lucent , Murray Hill, NJ. I joined Bell Labs in 1991. I received the B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from Polytechnic University of New York, and the Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from Columbia University, New York. I developed theory and algorithms for resource management and QoS support for several products. I hold six patents (and five pending patents) on network feedback congestion control, VoIP, packet scheduling, admission control and information processing in IP/MPLS networks. I received multi-year research funding from DARPA on traffic engineering and routing, and network modeling and optimization. I received the Best Paper Award in ACM SIGMETRICS/IFIP Performance 1995 on statistical modeling and analysis of multi-media traffic. I contributed to the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), wrote RFC's and helped in creating the Traffic Engineering Working Group. I served on NSF panels and on executive and technical program committees of IEEE and MPLS conferences, and was a guest editor of IEEE JSAC. I gave invited tutorials in IEEE INFOCOM and in INFORMS Telecommunications Conferences. I was an adjunct Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering in Polytechnic Institute of New York University (NYU). I am an elected member of Tau Beta Pi National Engineering Honor Society, Sigma Xi Scientific Research Society and IFIP Working Group 7.3.
