Research

My main research interests are in the design and analysis of algorithms, in particular approximation algorithms for combinatorial NP-hard problems. Recently, I have been focusing on problems in wireless communication. Additionally, I have been interested in bioinformatics and biological computing, as well as networked computation and reliable computing.
