About Me:

I'm a Ph.D. student and research assistant in the Department of Electrical and Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) at Massachusetts Institure of Technology (MIT). I am working with Prof. Eytan Modiano in the Communications and Networking Research Group (CNRG). I received my M.S. degree in EECS from MIT in 2007 and my B.S. degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from the Middle East Technical University (METU), Ankara, Turkey with second highest ranking in 2005. In August 2010 I was a visiting researcher at Bell Labs in Mathematics of Networks and Complex Systems Research Group in NJ and in summer 2007, I joined Microsoft Research (MSR) Systems and Networking Group in Camrbidge, UK as a research intern. You can see my publications here, and my resume here.

My research interests are in wireless network control, queuing theory and communication theory. In particular, I'm currently working on scheduling, routing and resource allocation for network control and optimization, dynamic server scheduling in queing systems and trajectory control for data gathering in mobile wireless networks.

I love the magic in sharing through conversation, traveling, discovering and learning about new ideas and new cultures, trying new activities and spontaneity in life. I play the guitar and compose songs. I am an intermediate level Argentine Tango dancer. Hiking, photography, wine tasting, mountain biking, skiing, basketball and soccer are among the activities I really enjoy.
