Autore: Junshan Zhang

Junshan Zhang received his Ph.D. degree from the School of ECE at Purdue University, in 2000. He joined the School of ECEE at Arizona State University in August 2000 and has been Fulton Chair Professor there since 2015. His research interests fall in the general field of information networks and data science, including communication networks, edge computing and machine learning for Io T, mobile social networks, and smart grid. His current research focuses on fundamental problems in information networks and data science, including edge computing and machine learning in Io T and 5G, Io T data privacy/security, information theory, stochastic modeling, and control for smart grid. Prof. Zhang is a Fellow of the IEEE and a recipient of the ONR Young Investigator Award in 2005 and the NSF CAREER award in 2003. He received the IEEE Wireless Communication Technical Committee Recognition Award in 2016. His papers have won a few awards, including the Best Student Paper Award at Wi OPT 2018, the Kenneth C. Sevcik Outstanding Student Paper Award at ACM SIGMETRICS/IFIP Performance 2016, the Best Paper Runner-up Award at IEEE INFOCOM 2009 and IEEE INFOCOM 2014, and the Best Paper Award at IEEE ICC 2008 and ICC 2017. Building on his research findings, he co-founded Smartiply Inc, a Fog Computing startup company delivering boosted network connectivity and embedded artificial intelligence. Prof. Zhang was TPC co-chair for a number of major conferences in communication networks, including IEEE INFOCOM 2012 and ACM MOBIHOC 2015. He was the general chair for ACM/IEEE SEC 2017, Wi OPT 2016, and IEEE Communication Theory Workshop 2007. He was a Distinguished Lecturer of the IEEE Communications Society. He is currently serving as Editor-in-chief for IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications and a senior editor for IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking.
