Bio
Dr. Xiao Wang completed his PhD at Carnegie Mellon University's Silicon Valley Campus in Electrical and Computer Engineering. He is now a Research Scientist at Facebook. He earned his BS degree in Electrical Engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in July 2011. As a member of the Institute of Wireless Communication Technology, he focused on connectivity and coverage of wireless sensor networks in the undergraduate research. His research interests now generally involve wireless networking, network security and performance evaluation of sensor and ad-hoc networks.
