  [ CCIED, Enterprise Tracing]

I am a computer scientist in the networking group at the International Computer Science Institute (ICSI) and also adjunct faculty in EECS at Case Western Reserve University. Prior to joining ICSI in 2003, I worked for the Internetwork Research Department of BBN Technologies at NASA's Glenn Research Center for six years and prior to that was part of Ohio University's Internetworking Research Group. My current research interests are in the areas of network architecture, network measurement, security, transport protocols and congestion control.
