OBJECTIVE

I am an experienced

software engineer, researcher, and technical communicator. My objective is

to work on advanced R&D projects.

Qualifications

I research, design and prototype new ideas in

data

management systems.

o Ph.D. thesis research on Web-databases and Real-time databases

(admission control, CPU scheduling, concurrency control to balance Quality

of Service and Quality of Data).

o Research

on data mining, in particular, graph based link analysis and anomaly

detection.

I have in-depth knowledge and extensive development

experiences with databases.

o 4 years Java development

experience of a prototype system to simulate a full-fledged in-memory

web-database.

o Experience of processing

millions of NYSE and NASDAQ Trades and Quotes data sets using Python and

Perl.

o 3 years application

development experience on database systems: Sybase, Microsoft SQL server,

and Oracle.

o 2 years kernel development

experience using C++ on OpenBASE Mini (a mobile database system deployed on

palm OS or windows CE).

o Experience with data

analysis using Matlab.

Professional experience

User-centric Web databases in a e-Trading

system Jun 2005

C now

Research Assistant, Advanced Data Management Lab, University of Pittsburgh

Built a comprehensive in-memory web database simulation using Java (over 10K

lines of source code).

Designed a real-time transaction

scheduling scheme [2, 3] and an admission control algorithm [4] to balance

response time and data freshness in e-Trading systems.

Built a prototype for user-centric web servers on NYSE Trades and Quotes

data set, including different CPU scheduling schemes, concurrency control

mechanisms, and admission control algorithms [1].

Graph mining towards Relevance Search and Anomaly Detection Jan 2005 C Dec 2005

Class

project, Carnegie Mellon University

Proposed a neighborhood formation and anomaly detection

algorithm using random walk with restart.

Applied on IMDB (the International Movie Database) and DBLP (the

computer science bibliography website) databases through Matlab and

C++ implementation.

Mobile Data Management System

Sep

2000 - Jul 2002

Software Engineer,Data Management Dept., Middleware Technologies

Co., Neusoft Group, China.

Developed a replication module for OpenBAES Mini (a mobile database management system for mobile devices with palm OS or windows CE) to synchronize its data with

heterogeneous main database systems like Sybase, Microsoft SQL, and Oracle.

Designed and implemented a clinical mobile data management

system using OpenBASE Mini for the Clinical Institute of China Medical

University.
