Dr. Peyravi joined the faculty of Computer Science at Kent state
University in 1985. From 1987 to 1989, he was a Member of Technical Staff
in the Systems Architecture at AT&T Bell Laboratories in Holmdel,
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 a research grant from Space Communication Division of
NASA
to study and evaluate the performance of multiple access control (MAC)
protocols for the Mars Regional Network. Recently, he has been awarded
by CAIDA
( Cooperative Association for Internet Data Analysis) to establish an Internet
Teaching and Research Laboratory to study traffic management and
routing protocols.
He is a member of the executive committee of the
Internet2
Technology Evaluation Center (ITEC) ,
a member of the program committee for International Conference on Parallel
Processing (ICPP), and a committee member of QoS over Next Generation Data
Networks Conference.
Currently he is a professor
of computer science at Kent State University.
His research focus includes
medium access protocols, traffic management and congestion control,
interconnection networks, switching architecture,
optical networks,
computer architecture, system modeling
and performance evaluation.
