About me

I am a lecturer (assistant professor) at the School of Electronic Engineering and Computer Science of Queen Mary University of London. I am also Alan Turing Institute fellow and PI on the EPSRC New Investigator Award project NEAT. My research interests cover a broad spectrum of topics in both networks and systems. Specifically, they span network monitoring, networking systems performance characterization and Software Defined Networking. Lately, I have been also focusing on understanding how better dataplane programmability can impact the design of networks as well as their services. Details of my publications can be found on my Google Scholar profile or my publications page. I co-authored “Re-architecting datacenter networks and stacks for low latency and high performance”, awarded with the best paper at ACM SIGCOMM 2017, which proposes a new congestion control approach for datacenter networks that leverage dataplane programmability. I also acted as joint investigator on multiple projects, both EU H2020 (ENDEAVOUR and SSICLOPS) and UK EPSRC (EARL).
I am always looking for motivated students willing to collaborate with me.
