I received my Ph.D. from Beijing Institute of Technology, China, in 2020 in Computer Networks. My research focuses mostly on communication and protocol evaluation of Software Defined Networking, Internet of Things, and resource management of Multiaccess Edge Computing (MEC). My current interests include the Internet of Things, Edge Computing, Blockchain, and DL/ML in Computer Networks. Currently, I am working as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science, School of Engineering and Digital Sciences (SEDS) at Nazarbayev University, Astana, Kazakhstan.
