Design and implementation of scalable switch architectures for large networks with varying quality of service. In addition to performance design metrics, implementation metrics such as power, space, and cost effectiveness are explored in the design of switch architectures.
Design of unifying network architectures based on GMPLS control plane for various existing and future services. Research issues include intelligent traffic management, secure and fault-tolerant control plane, management of multi-layer and cross-layer interactions, and optimization of network resources in multi-layer networks.
Design and development of distributed network security management system for heterogeneous networks including wireless infrastructure. Research issues include modeling and detection of network attacks, machine learning and data mining of network data, real-time network and host monitoring, and fast response, fault isolation, and prevention of network failures.
