Education

  1. PhD Computer Engineering

    Boston University College of Engineering

    Thesis on Economic Frameworks for Spectrum Coexistence in Advanced Wireless Networks. Supervised by Prof David Starobinski. Research focus in developemnt of economic models for interactions between passive radiometers and active communications users, with additional work in development of Markov Decsion Process-based attack modeling for cloud application autoscaling. Published seven total conference and journal papsers: four IEEE conference papers with one Best Paper Runner Up accolade; one ACM conference paper; one IEEE JSAC paper; and one VLDB paper. Two additional follow up works based on the research are pending. Additionally, I have presented my work to industry funders and CTO teams and served as a Guest Lecturer for the Computer Communication Networks course on three occasions while covering for the professor’s absence.
