I joined the Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering in Concordia University in June 2008, after five years as a Researcher Officer in the Institute for Information Technology (IIT) in the National Research Council's (NRC). I am also an Adjunct Professor in the Faculty of Computer Science in University of New Brunswick.
Office Hours in Winter 2011-212
I am on medical leave until Jan 25. I will come back to work gradually before that date, giving teaching the first priority.
No office hours before Jan 25. Emails will be answered with prioritization. My graduate students and the cap stone students, I encourage you
to work hard while I am unable to give a close supervision.
Regular office hours after Jan 25:
Tue, Thur 10:30am-12:00pm. EV3.227.
Research Topics
Service Computing, Mobile Computing and Cloud Computing
Service computing brings flexibility, interoperability, and composeability to software systems. Service computing combining with mobile computing and cloud computing is going to pave the new landscape of software engineering, pervasive computing and high performance computing. I am exploring the domain from the following aspects:
- Web service modeling: formal models, such as automata, process algebra and Petri net, to model Web service
- service composition: automatic planning algorithms
- monitoring, diagnosis, repair, and reconfiguration
- personal information aid with mobile devices: use marsh up, search, and composition for personal information aid.
- services over clouds, multi-tenent architecture
Potential Students
If you are looking for a supervisor for your graduate study and self-motivated, you are welcome to contact me. I am recruiting students in the directions of Web services, Web service composition, cloud computing, data mining, and software engineering.
Tips: in order to be poped up from all the queries I receive everyday, I suggest you to include the following information in your email: 1) your transcripts from the recent program you finished or will finish; 2) what kind of topics interested you; 3) your career expectation; 4) your demand on scholarship.
