Y. Richard Yang is a Professor of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering at Yale, where he is a member of the Computer Systems Lab. His research spans areas including computer networks, distributed systems, wireless networking, mobile computing and network security. His work with collaborators on the Internet has contributed to the establishment of the ALTO Internet Standard, which is the main Internet standard for networks and applications to interact, motivated by the P4P project he led at Yale. His work with collaborators on wireless networking has major influence on NEF and massive-MIMO, which are key features of modern celluar networks such as 5G. His work with collaborators on mobile computing has led to the establishment of a foundational theory of network localization. His work with collaborators on Sprite was among the first distributed mechanism design systems. His work is recognized by best paper awards (including ACM SIGMobile Test of Time Award, ACM SIGCOMM NAI Best Paper Award, IEEE IWQoS Best Paper, ACM SIGCOMM fast track), the National Science Foundation CAREER Award, and industrial awards (including Facebook Faculty Research Award, Google Faculty Research, and Microsoft Research Award). His work has been featured in media outlets including The Economist, Forbes, The Guardian, MIT Technology Review, and Wired, among others. He has been program chairs when topics such as network quality of service (QoS), programmable networking (SOSR), and network-application integrations (NAI) were emerging. His research is supported by both government funding agencies (U.S. NSF, U.S. Army, and U.K. MoD) and leading corporations (Facebook, Google, and Microsoft). He received his B.E. degree in Computer Science and Technology from Tsinghua University (1993), and his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science from the University of Texas at Austin (1998 and 2001). |
