My primary research interests are component-based software development, distributed systems and ubiquitous computing. I'm particular interested in building autonomous infrastructure to allow service composition and system restructuring.

I'm currently participating in the research and development of Project RADAR, working on the high-level architecture of RADAR under Prof. David Garlan's guidance. The most significant challenge facing us is how to enable a variety of heterogeneous agents to coordinate seamlessly and effectively to accomplish sophisticated tasks. At present I'm experimenting on a prototype of a key component in the architecture: the Task Manager, which is intended to manage high-level tasks and coordinate communications among agents in a personal space.

I also participated in several other challenging and cool projects. Check my projects page for more details.

During my spare time, I enjoy reading novels.
