Note to prospective students: My research is primarily theoretical, and thus prospective graduate students should have an excellent mathematical background (particularly in linear algebra and signals-and-systems). A solid background in graph theory, game theory, random processes, distributed algorithms or control theory would also be helpful. If you fit this description, please send me an email. Please note that due to the volume of email that I receive, I can only respond to those whose qualifications match open positions.
