Research Interests

My main research interest lies in the computer network and systems, with intersection over multimedia, human-computer interaction, and machine learning.

Now we are closer to next-generation real-time interactive multimedia streaming systems (e.g., metaverse, cloud gaming, virtual reality, or videoconferencing) than anytime in the history. However, the underlying network is still not enough to provide a consistent low latency and support a satisfactory experience for users. I proposed several networked systems to provide consistent low latency for real-time interactive multimedia streaming systems, across all network stacks to reduce end-to-end latency fluctuations. Going forward, my plan is to enable real-time interactive multimedia streaming systems to be a part of real life with more consistent low latency.
