    Built privacy infrastructure that serves more than a billion people every day. Improved the scalability, reliability, and security of Zanzibar, a global authorization system that guarantees external consistency. Served on the production system's on-call rotation. Led the publication of an experience paper that has inspired a number of authorization systems outside of Google.

    2010 - 2014: Research in mobility modeling with an emphasis on privacy. • Characterized human mobility patterns using billions of spatiotemporally sparse location samples for hundreds of thousands of anonymous cellphones in the New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco metropolitan areas. Results included range of travel, important places, commuting routes, commuting carbon footprints, and geographic distributions of commuters. • Developed differentially private modeling techniques that generate realistic sequences of locations and times for arbitrary numbers of synthetic people moving within metropolitan-scale regions.

    2008-2010: Research in mobile, edge, and cloud computing with an emphasis on privacy. • Introduced Cloudlets, virtual-machine infrastructure deployed near the edge of the network to support latency-sensitive and resource-intensive mobile applications. This work won the 2022 ACM SIGMOBILE Test-of-Time Award, has 4,500+ citations, and is seminal to edge computing. • Prototyped Virtual Individual Servers, personal virtual machines running in a paid cloud computing utility. VIS owners retain rights and control over the data in their VISs. Ran a VIS user trial. • Developed Vis-à-Vis, a decentralized framework for online social networking that is based on federations of VISs and leverages their privacy-preserving properties.

Research Staff Member
2003 - 2008		 IBM Research
Hawthorne, NY
    2005 - 2008: Research in secure cloud computing and secure mobile computing. • Combined virtual machines, mandatory access controls, and hardware roots of trust to enable Trusted Virtual Data Centers with strong isolation and integrity guarantees. • Virtualized the Trusted Platform Module to enable trusted computing for an arbitrary number of virtual machines on a single hardware platform. • Designed and built a Trustworthy Kiosk system, in which a user leverages his mobile phone to verify the integrity of software loaded on a public computing device, prior to revealing personal information to that device.

    2003-2005: Research in mobile computing and software development tools. • Prototyped and evaluated SoulPad, a new mobility approach based on carrying an auto-configuring operating system and a suspended virtual machine on a pocket-sized device. SoulPad enables rapid personalization of PCs without preinstalled software or network connectivity. This work won the 2005 ACM/USENIX MobiSys Best Paper Award. • Created Composite Projects, a facility for grouping and nesting programming projects in the Eclipse Integrated Development Environment.

Principal Member of Technical Staff
1994 - 2000		 AT&T Labs and AT&T Bell Labs
Florham Park, Murray Hill, and Holmdel, NJ
    1998 - 2000: Research in network measurement. • Introduced MINC, a set of techniques for inferring the internal behavior of networks based on end-to-end multicast measurements. Validated MINC through MBone experiments. Standardized MINC data collection as extensions to the Real Time Protocol. • Developed a tool for monitoring Internet multimedia traffic that parses signaling protocols at packet capture time to track dynamically assigned port numbers.

    1996 - 1998: Research in wide-area networking and wireless networking. • Built and deployed PacketScope, a system for capturing IP packets on high-speed links for unlimited periods. Used the system to gather extensive traces of public Internet traffic. Used the traces to investigate performance issues in Web proxy caching and to evaluate policies for multiplexing Web traffic over flow-switched networks. • Led the deployment of an early wireless LAN with more than 25 access points.

    1994 - 1996: Research in mobile computing and wireless networking. Designed and prototyped a hierarchical handoff scheme for Mobile IP.

Quantified the pros and cons of using flash memory vs. hard disks. Proposed integrating flash memory with DRAM as primary storage.

Post-Graduate Researcher
1987 - 1992
University of California at Berkeley and
International Computer Science Institute
Berkeley, CA
    Research in wide-area networking. Built and deployed systems for capturing IP packets. Gathered traces of wide-area Internet traffic and used them to characterize dominant TCP/IP applications. Findings led to more realistic traffic models by showing that, e.g., most bulk transfers were small and interactive sessions were asymmetric. Used resulting models to evaluate policies and mechanisms for transporting IP traffic over ATM networks. Showed that ATM cell sizes and adaptation layers led to gross bandwidth inefficiencies for Internet traffic, an overhead that became known as the cell tax.

Software Development Engineer

    Unix multiprocessor kernel development. Designed, implemented, and released networking products, including IP over X.25, IP over HDLC, and raw X.25/X.28/X.29. Ported Streams I/O from AT&T to Berkeley Unix. Improved the multiprocessor performance of the Fast File System.

    Pyramid created a line of shared-memory multiprocessor systems based on a proprietary RISC architecture and the Unix operating system. Pyramid went public in 1985 and was acquired in 1995.
