\"\"<\/a>I am a PhD candidate in the department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Notre\u00a0Dame, where I work in the Wireless Institute<\/a> under the direction of Dr. Aaron Striegel<\/a>. My current research focuses on network performance measurement, security, and privacy.<\/p>\n

In particular, I am exploring the spillover effects of active network probing tools also knows as speed\u00a0tests on user quality of experience (QoE) for both Wi-Fi and cellular networks. I am also investigating ways to reduce the cost of these tools through pre-staging useful content as part of speed tests. Additionally, I am looking at how passively observing beacon signal strength, block acknowledgement gaps, and other control packets can be used to characterize neighborhood density, patterns of life, and other interesting environmental effects.<\/p>\n

My recent paper, published in ICC 2023, showcases my work in mitigating the cost of speed tests for improving quality of experience (QoE) for users. In the paper, I presented rePurpose, a novel system that reduces the data cost of network performance measurement tests and improves user QoE by repurposing traditionally discarded speed test data into useful content.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
