I am a postdoctoral Researcher at Advanced Digital Sciences Center (ADSC), a research center established by the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign (UIUC) in Singapore. I am also a research affiliate at the Coordinated Science Laboratory (CSL) at UIUC.
I received my PhD (2016) degree from City University of Hong Kong and BE (2009) degree from Sichuan University.
My research interests include security of cyber-physical systems, optimal power flow in power systems, wireless network coding, optimization and distributed algorithms.
