About me
I'm Reza, and welcome to my personal website. I'm a Ph.D. researcher at the Horizon Europe Graph-Massiviser project of Alpen-Adria-Universität Klagenfurt (AAU), Austria, advised by Prof. Radu Prodan. Before that, I was a Ph.D. researcher at the Christian Doppler laboratory ATHENA of Alpen-Adria-Universität Klagenfurt (AAU), Austria, advised by Prof. Hermann Hellwagner and Prof. Christian Timmerer. My research is focused on Network and Service Management, Multimedia systems, Next Generation Networks (SDN, NFV, MEC, SFC, P2P), Computing Continuum, Serverless Computing, Parallel and Distributed Systems, Optimization, and Learning-based approaches.
I received my B.Sc. in 2014 and M.Sc. in 2019 from the University of Isfahan, IRAN, and the University of Tehran, IRAN, respectively. During my M.Sc., I worked with Prof. Naser Yazdani and Prof. Mohammad Ghanbari at the Router Lab of the University of Tehran.
During these years, I also worked in the computer networks field in different roles, e.g., network administrator, ISP customer support engineer, Cisco network engineer, network protocol designer, network programmer, and Cisco instructor (R&S, SP).
