Biography
I received my BS degree and MS degree in Computer Science from Huazhong Normal University in China in the year of 2000 and 2003 respectively. I got my Ph.D. degree in Computer Science and Engineering from the Pennsylvania State University (University Park) in August, 2010. I joined the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science in the Catholic University of America as an assistant professor in Fall 2010.
