Research Interests

His primary interest, since 1998, has lain in the computer/network security, in particularly intrusion detection, intrusion trace, DoS / DDoS, computer viruses/anti-virus, and network survivability. His primary approach in the security is biologically inspired. For example, he is closely looking at the biological immune system and the evolutionary theory from which he may draw any idea that can efficiently be applied to the computer security. Besides, he is happy to delve into other systems stuff such as networks, wireless sensor networks, embedded systems, and operating systems.

Current/Ongoing Project

• He's just started a research on Internet censorship, still with interests in malware detection and anti-mechanism against web worms that exploit XSS-vulnerabilities.
  • Here is the link to his advisor, Dr. Jedidiah R. Crandall.
  • Here is the link to a UVA survey on intrusion detection.
  • Here is the link to a GaTech's reading list on intrusion detection.
  • Here is the link to seminal papers compiled by UC Davis.

Past Projects

• Building a digital library, at the UNM University Library, using DSpace, in particular aiming at social tagging and image query
• Developing a next-generation high-performance Alpha processor with 0.13-um CMOS technology at SEC
