About Me

I received my B.S. degree and Ph.D. degree in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China, in 2016 and 2023. I am very fortunate to be supervised by Prof. Jie Li and Prof. Weijia Jia. My current research interests include edge computing, task scheduling, and container management. From 2018 to 2022, I have been a research assistant in the University of Macau and Beijing Normal University. I has published several papers in leading journals and conferences (e.g., ToN, TMC, TSC). I have served as a reviewer for INFOCOM, ICDCS, CN, JPDC, IoT-J, and CCGRID.
