I am the Principle Investigate of the following research projects:

Network Survivability and Availability Analysis (With Bell Canada and NSERC)

The project is mainly on the design and development of novel spare capacity allocation schemes that can achieve network survivability and E2E availability-guarantee for each connection in WDM and IP/MPLS networks.

Research Partners : Dr. Janos Tapolcai , Mr. Anwar Haque , and Prof. Xiaohong Jiang

IEEE 802.16 (Wimax) and Wireless Network Security (with SparekMatrix, NSERC, and OCE)

IEEE 802.16 networks (Wimax) have been one of the most promising approaches that can integrate the various wireless telecommunication technologies and provide integrated broadband wireless services (up to 150 Mpbs and 50 miles). It has the potential to replace the "last mile" of an IP core and is expected to provide the end users with guaranteed QoS.

This project looks into the issues of architecture design, channel scheduling, admission control and routing on the four types of provisioned services: UGS, rtPS, nrtPS, and Best effort supported in Wimax. We are particularly interested in the mesh/relay architecture defined in IEEE 802.16j, where relay stations are deployed for extend the coverage of a base station and to improve the total throughput.
