Granite 情報科学領域

ソフトウェア設計学研究室 博士課程2年Kang Xingyuanさん

あなたの研究テーマについて教えてください。What is your research theme?

My research focuses on enhancing data synchronization between nodes in distributed Software-Defined Network (SDN) environments.
Specifically, I explore the Open Networking Operating System (ONOS) platform to optimize synchronization efficiency and reliability.

My work addresses issues such as latency, consistency, and scalability in distributed networks, aiming to improve the overall performance of SDN systems. These systems are critical for managing high-throughput, large-scale data operations.

なぜ博士課程へ進学しましたか?Why did you decide to pursue a doctoral program?

I decided to pursue a doctoral program because of my passion for solving complex problems and advancing knowledge in networking and distributed systems. During my undergraduate studies, I developed a strong interest in algorithms, logic, and full-stack programming.
My experiences further sparked curiosity about SDN's potential to revolutionize network management.
A doctoral program provides an opportunity to deeply explore these fields and contribute innovative solutions to real-world challenges.
