Welcome to the “Smart Optical Networking” group!! There are two emerging areas, namely quantum internet and artificial intelligence, that will change the world completely. We are looking for motivated and smart PhD/Masters/Bachelor students to join our group and pursue research in the following areas, as well as other communication and networking areas where we could work together to make a better inter-connected world.

Quantum Optical Networking:

  • Quantum Optical Network Design
  • Quantum Network Simulation
  • Quantum Key Distribution

Optical Datacenter Networking

  • Datacenter and High-performance Computing Systems Architecture
  • Intelligent Resource Allocation
  • Resource Optimization

Other areas:

  • Terahertz Communication and Networks
  • Smart IoT
  • Network Security
  • Blockchain
  • AI/ML for Resource Optimization
