  • Prof. Anna Scaglione

    Associate Professor Anna Scaglione received her "Laurea" and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Rome "La Sapienza", Rome, Italy in 1995 and 1999 respectively. She received the IEEE Signal Processing Transactions Best Paper Award in 2000, the NSF Career Award in 2002, and was co-recipient of the Ellersick Best Paper Award (MILCOM 2005) and the 2005 Best paper for Young Authors of the Taiwan IEEE Comsoc/Information theory section.

  • Dr. Zhifang Wang

    Dr. Wang is a post-doctoral research associate and joined CRiSP in 2008. She is sponsored by the UIUC center for Trustworthy Cyber Infrastructure for Power networks (TCIP). She received her Ph.D degree from Cornell University in 2005 and her M.S. and B.S. degrees from Tsinghua University, Beijing, China in 1998 and 1995 respectively. Her research interests include: decentralized real-time control scheme under communication constraints of power network, trustworthy information sharing and exchange architecture for the real-time control of power grids, and optimized restoration in power grids.

  • Dr. Ramy Tannious

    Dr. Tannious joined CRiSP in 2009. He is working on Body Area Networks and in particular on the design of codes and receiver architecture for Ultra-Wideband CMOS radios that would be providing Zigbee rates but operating at micro-watts rather than milliwatts of power.

  • Shrut Kirti

    Shrut Kirti is a graduate student at Cornell University since 2005. He graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering in May 2005 and received his M.S degree in Electrical Engineering from Cornell University in July 2008. His current research focuses on the design and analysis of physical layer communication protocols using cooperation. Prior to that he worked on gossiping algorithms.

  • Lin Li
