I have been a visiting scholar in the Broadband Wireless and Networking Laboratory (BWN) laboratory, led by Prof. Ian F. Akyildiz. During that time I have worked in the field of Wiress Mesh Networks (WMN), with a special focus on IEEE 802.16 mesh networks. I have developed a distributed algorithm for providing fair and differentiated service, which has been evaluated through packet-level simulation and published in an important networking conference (IEEE INFOCOM) and journal (IEEE/ACM Trans… Show more I have been a visiting scholar in the Broadband Wireless and Networking Laboratory (BWN) laboratory, led by Prof. Ian F.
