Biography & Research

My name is Changlei Liu. I have been a PhD student at department of Computer Science and Engineering, Pennsylvania State University since 2004. I belong to the Mobile Computing and Networking Lab, which is part of the Networking and Security Research Center. Prior to my comming to Penn. State, I received my MPhil. degree from the University of Hong Kong in 2003, and B.S. degree from the University of Science and Technology of China in 2000. My research initiative is motivated by my favor on both the theoretical analysis and protocol design, which relates to the area of wireless networks, mobile computing, and sensor technology. My advisor is Prof. Guohong Cao
