معرفی
Y. Richard Yang is a Professor of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering at Yale University, where he leads research in computer networks, wireless systems, and distributed computing. He is a core member of Yale's Computer Systems Lab and has pioneered Internet standards like ALTO (RFCs 7285/9439/9569). His work on massive MIMO (Argos) laid foundations for 5G cellular networks.
Education:
- Ph.D. in Computer Science, University of Texas at Austin (2001)
- M.S. in Computer Science, University of Texas at Austin (1998)
- B.E. in Computer Science, Tsinghua University (1993)
Research Interests: Yang's work spans network architecture (ALTO/P4P), wireless innovations (beamforming, superposition coding), and network verification (Flash, Trident). His recent focus includes deep application-network integration and scalable data plane verification for cloud/CERN-scale systems.
Publication Trends: Recent articles emphasize SDN programmability (Maple, Trident), Internet-scale optimization (ALTO extensions), and high-speed verification (Flash). His works consistently bridge theory (game-theoretic models) with practical deployment (RFCs, CERN integration).
Awards:
- ACM SIGMobile Test of Time Award (2022)
- ACM SIGCOMM NAI Best Paper Award (2022)
- NSF CAREER Award
- Facebook/Google/Microsoft Faculty Research Awards
Students & Funding: Advised recent graduates including Jackie Dong and Lily Zhou. Secured grants from U.S. NSF, Army, U.K. MoD, Facebook, Google, and Microsoft.
Labs: Directs projects in the Computer Systems Lab at Yale, collaborating with CERN, Microsoft Research, and Tsinghua/Peking Universities.
