• the Host Identity Protocol, an architecture to provide a new namespace for the Internet.
• Mobile Ad Hoc Networking in general.

• I am an Affiliate Assistant Professor in the University of Washington Electrical Engineering department, where I taught Introduction to Computer Communications Networks in 2002-03. My course materials are available on-line here.
• I am currently serving as the co-chair of the IRTF Host Identity Protocol research group, and am a member of the Internet Research Steering Group.

Prior to Boeing, I worked at Geocast Network Systems (a former technology company focused on developing an end-to-end data broadcasting system, using MPEG-2 based broadcast systems, for consumers), where we studied reception characteristics of the emerging ATSC digital television standard. I also helped to design and implement Geocast's IP-based data broadcasting network, which distributed data feeds via satellite to several U.S. television stations.

I obtained my Ph.D. in EECS at U.C. Berkeley in the late 1990s, where I was a member of the BARWAN/Daedalus research project (short video here)

I also worked for COMSAT Laboratories (now part of Viasat) for several years in their data networking division.

Before that, I attended Stanford University for undergraduate and Masters degrees. My hometown is Greensburg, PA, outside of Pittsburgh.
