I'm a Ph.D. student candidate at department of Computer Science of University of Toronto. My supervisor is Prof. Yashar Ganjali.

I received my M. Sc. degree from Department of Computer Science, University of Victoria under supervision of Prof. Ali Shoja and Prof. Sudhakar Ganti.
Thesis: "Resource Optimization Algorithms for Virtual Private Networks Using the Hose Model".
I received my B.Eng. degree from Department of Computer Engineering, Sharif University of Technology, in June 2005.


About:

My research interests are in the general area of computer networking, including data center networking, transport protocols, switch and router architecture, resource management, network measurement, and online social networks. I am interested in theoretical analysis of new networking protocols as well as building and experimenting with them. My current research is on designing new transport protocols in data center networks. In the past I have worked on sizing buffers in Internet routers.
