Dr. Peyravi has joined the faculty of
Computer Science at
Kent State University in 1985. From 1987 to 1989, he was a Member
of Technical Staff at AT&T Bell Laboratories in New Jersey. During
this period, he conducted research in network architecture, adaptive
routing algorithms for ISDN network controllers, and frame relay. He
has been awarded two research grants from NASA Space Communication
Division to design, study and evaluate the performance of multiple
access control (MAC) protocols for the Mars Regional Network. He has
been awarded by CAIDA
(Cooperative
Association for Internet Data Analysis) to establish an
Internet Engineering and Teaching Laboratory at Kent State University,
and to study traffic management, network management and routing
protocols for IP routers. He has been awarded by the Internet2
Technology Evaluation Center (ITEC) to study the QoS provisioning and traffic
management for the next generation of
IP networks.
Dr. Peyravi has participated in the review
process of numerous transactions papers and journal articles for the
major computer and communication societies including IEEE, ACM, Elsevier, The Society for
Modeling and Simulation International, and The International Society for
Optical Engineering .
He has also participated in the review process of several NSF panels and a few
academic review boards.
Dr. Peyravi has served as a member of the
executive committee for the Internet2 Technology Evaluation Center
(ITEC-Ohio), and a member of the program committees for several
international conferences including International Conference on
Parallel Processing (ICPP), Wireless Networks and Mobile Computing, QoS
over Next Generation Data Networks, and the International Society for
Optical Engineering.
Dr. Peyravi's research encompasses multiple
access protocols, traffic management and congestion control, optical switching
and transmissions, interconnection networks, systems modeling and
performance evaluation.
