Boxun Zhang's Research Page

Short Bio

I am a PhD candidate in the Parallel and Distributed Systems (PDS) Group of the Faculty of Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science (EWI), TU Delft, and my supervisor is Prof. Henk Sips. I received my Master degree in computer science from Kungliga Tekniska högskolan (KTH), Sweden, and my master thesis supervisor was Prof.Mihhail Matskin.

My research mainly focuses on Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks, particularly the analysis and modeling of P2P systems. I am also interested in Content Distribution Networks (CDN).
