About Me

I received the B.Sc. degree in the School of Management from Xi’an Jiaotong University （西安交通大学）, China, in 2002.

Then I received the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in the Department of Computer Science and Technology from Nanjing University（南京大学）, China, in 2008 and 2011, respectively. My advisor is Professor Daoxu Chen （陈道蓄） and Professor Qing Gu （顾庆）.

Now I am an associate professor in the School of Information Science and Technology at Nantong University.

I am a member of ACM, IEEE and senior member of CCF (China Computer Federation).
