معرفی
Shawn Ostermann is an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the Russ College of Engineering and Technology, Ohio University. His research focuses on network communication in challenging environments, cybersecurity, and computer network performance analysis. He holds a Ph.D., M.S., and B.S. in Computer Science from Purdue University.
Education:
- Ph.D., Computer Science, Purdue University, 1993
- M.S., Computer Science, Purdue University, 1987
- B.S., Computer Science, Purdue University, 1985
Research Interests: His work explores resilient communication systems for extreme environments (e.g., space, disaster zones), cybersecurity mechanisms for detecting network intrusions, and optimizing protocols for satellite and lunar networks. He has contributed to protocols like DTN Bundle and LTP, and systems like INBOUNDS for network anomaly detection.
Publications Trends: Recent work emphasizes lunar communication models (e.g., LUNAR LTE) and disruption-tolerant networking (DTN). Earlier research focused on TCP performance over satellite links, intrusion detection systems (e.g., SECURE-RM), and protocol standardization (RFCs).
Grants & Projects:
- Developed INBOUNDS, a network detective service for anomaly detection
- Contributed to SECURE-RM for real-time system security
- Co-created tcptrace for network analysis
Labs/Teams: Affiliated with the Ohio University Network Research Group, contributing to projects like the Ohio Network Emulator (ONE) and tcptrace tool development.
