My research interests belong to the broad category of parallel & distributed systems and interconnection networks. Specific topics include:
• Data Center Networks (DCNs): design and analysis of DCN architectures, flow scheduling with software-defined networking technologies.
• Cloud computing: virtual machine placement, cloud application scheduling, cloudlet deployment for mobile cloud computing.
• Green computing: energy-aware scheduling on multiprocessor platforms and on network-on-chip systems, power and energy related issues in cloud computing and data centers.

Reinforcement learning and its applications to control and multi-agent systems where my doctoral studies originated. In general terms, reinforcement learning is concerned with computational approaches to learning from reward. Here I consider how a learning agent can learn as quickly as possible from limited interaction with other agents and its environment.
Image retrieval, in particular content-based retrieval where I consider indexing schemes that allow flexible retrieval metrics to be created on the fly so that very large databases can be accessed efficiently and accurately.
Classification and data mining, where I am particularly interested in adaptive metric nearest-neighbor techniques and compact subspace representation for building robust classifiers from limited training data.
