Research interests
My current research interests focus on optical network abstraction. Optical network abstraction enables a unified view of different optical networks, thus being able to provide a uniform solution for orchestrating services in multi-domain optical networks. Apart from that, my research also includes globally optical network resources (time, space and frequency) management, intelligent and autonomous power management/adjustment ROADM and optical amplifiers, algorithms design for optical network resource optimisation.
