About me

Welcome! I am a Lecturer in Computer and Information Sciences at Northumbria University, UK. Before that, I was a Postdoctoral researcher in the Chair of High Performance Computing, Helmut-Schmidt-Universität/Universität der Bundeswehr Hamburg (HSU/UniBwH), Germany, working on the “Smartship” Project. I have a multidisciplinary background, having received a Ph.D. degree from Department of Computer Science, the University of Exeter, UK., graduated from the Beihang University, Beijing, China, with a Master Degree in Control Science and Engineering, and a Bachelor Degree in Mechanical Engineering.

My research interests include:

  • Mobile edge computing
  • Internet of things
  • Intelligent transportation systems
  • Decision-making strategies for future mobile networks

I am also enthusiastic to teach and work with highly motivated students, and very excited to see students making progress. In qualification, I am an Associate Fellow of UKPSF for teaching and supporting learning in higher education, recognized by Advance HE.
