2024 UETN Tech Summit

I am a Computer Networking and AI Scientist and currently serve as Group Lead to ORNL’s Quantum Networking and Communications Group. My research focuses on 'Engineering Self-Driving Networks', exploring AI/ML solutions for improving network performance, flexibility and high-speed distributed data transfers for science. Involving themes of deep learning, software engineering and complex networks, I have developed solutions for optimizing data movement, TCP/IP protocols, learning controllers for Wide area network (WANs), wireless/5G (& Beyond) and Quantum networked devices. 
My research impacts DOE’s infrastructure used for high-energy physics, neutron science, materials science, biology, ecology, smart grids and nuclear energy applications
