I'm a Computer Science Engineer from Universidad del Norte, in Barranquilla, Colombia. I finished the B. Sc. in 2002 at this university. Currently, I'm in my fourth year of the PhD program under supervision of Dr Ken Christensen. My research interests include Performance Evaluation of Computer Networks, and Power Management for Networking end devices. Also, I'm interested in software development and assessment. News!!! I have my first video on YouTube!!! please see here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdAm4olcVoo. It's about a project I'm working on. It consists on a system running on a Linksys router that can enable IP phones to sleep for long periods of time, and be woken up by a call directed to it. Given the amount of IP phones currently in use, the power consumed by them and the low true usage, this can lead to great energy and monetary savings, and of course with its environmental impact. If interested, a short version just with the demonstration can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXTr1wF6c-Y. Some info about me: During my studies, I've worked as Research Assistant for the CSE department and I've been funded by NSF and during Fall 2008 and Spring 2009 I was funded by Cisco. I also worked teaching a class for my department. I am currently working as T.A. and preparing my dissertation defense. I have over 3 years of experience as Software Engineer in my country, where I worked with Java, J2EE, C, VB6, PHP, ASP, Html, and other programming languages. I came to USF sponsored by Universidad del Norte, where I'll work as a professor after finishing my PhD program at USF. Besides English for my PhD and Spanish as my native language, I learnt German in high school education.
