Intelligence. He co-founded The Colorado Research
Center for Democracy and Technology as well as The CU CyberSafety
Research Center at CU-Boulder. He serves as a member of
the CU
Honor Code Advisory Board, Boulder
Faculty Assembly and the newly formed Faculty
Governance Council in the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences.
He served as associate chair of the Computer Science Department as chairs
of the undergraduate or graduate programs for over 20 years. He was the
General Chair of The 47th Annual
IEEE/IFIP International Conference on Dependable Systems and Networks (DSN
2017) and The First and Second International Workshop on Computational
Methods for CyberSafety (CyberSafety
2016. And CyberSafety 2017) which he co-founded.
He has also served as the Program Committee Chair/Co-Chair of CyberSafety 2020, CyberSafety
2018 and MobiCASE 2014.
He enjoys doing research
in Distributed Computing & Networking as well as in Social Computing.
His current research includes developing system-level support for edge
computing and digital twins at the edge, building socio-technical systems
to empower environmental justice communities, strengthening democracy
through technology, and investigating cybersafety
issues in social networks. In the past, he has conducted extensive research
in the areas of mobile group recommendations, cyberbullying in social
networks, misbehavior detection in online video chat systems, multiplayer
online game analytics, secure and intrusion-tolerant sensor networks,
delay-tolerant networking, and group communication systems.
He teaches systems
courses both at the undergraduate and graduate levels. These include
Computer Systems and Operating Systems at the undergraduate level and
Distributed Systems, Computer Networks and Advanced Operating Systems at
the graduate level. In addition, he has taught several special topics
courses including Strengthening Democracy through Technology, Sustainable
Computing, and Dependable Distributed Systems.
