Jie Gao

Jie Gao received his Ph.D. degree in electrical and computer engineering from the University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB, in 2014, supervised by Prof. Sergiy Vorobyov (IEEE Fellow) and Prof. Hai Jiang (IEEE Fellow). He was an NSERC postdoctoral fellow with Toronto Metropolitan University, Toronto, ON, from 2017 to 2019, supervised by Prof. Lian Zhao (IEEE Fellow), a research associate with the University of Waterloo, Waterloo, ON, from 2019 to 2020, supervised by Prof. Xuemin (Sherman) Shen (Fellow of IEEE, RSC, CAE and EIC) and Prof. Weihua Zhuang (Fellow of IEEE, RSC, CAE and EIC), and an assistant professor with the department of electrical and computer engineering, Marquette University, Milwaukee, WI, USA, from 2020 to 2022. In July 2022, he joined the School of Information Technology, Carleton University, Ottawa, ON. Dr. Gao’s research interests include machine learning for communications and networking, cloud and multi-access edge computing, Internet of Things (IoT) and industrial IoT solutions, and next-generation (6G) wireless networks in general.
