Professor Weijia Jia (賈維嘉教授)
Contact Information: |
Prof. Jia is currently a full Professor in the Department of Computer Science and the Director of Future Networking Center, ShenZhen Research Institute of City University of Hong Kong (CityU). He received BSc and MSc from Center South University , China in 1982 and 1984 and Master of Applied Sci. and PhD from Polytechnic Faculty of Mons, Belgium in 1992 and 1993 respectively, all in Computer Science. He joined German National Research Center for Information Science (GMD) in Bonn (St. Augustine) from 1993 to 1995 as a research fellow. In 1995, he joined Department of Computer Science, CityU as an assistant professor.
Prof. Jia’s research interests include next generation wireless communication, protocols and heterogeneous networks; distributed systems, multicast and anycast QoS routing protocols. In these fields, he has a number of publications in the prestige international journals (IEEE Transactions, e.g., TPDS, TC, TMC etc.), books/chapters and refereed international conference proceedings (e.g. ACM WiSec, MobiHoc, SenSys, IEEE ICDCS, INFOCOM etc.). He (with W. Zhou) has published a book “Distributed Network Systems” by Springer where the book contains extensive research materials and implementation examples. He has received the best paper award in a prestige (IEEE) conference and (with J. Chen et. al) has proposed an improved algorithm for well-known Vertex Cover and Set-packing NP-hard problems with time bounds of O(kn+1.2852k) and O((5.7k)kn) respectively. Both results stand on the current best time-bound to date for the fixed-parameterized intractable problems.
Prof. Jia is the Chair Professor of Central South University, Changsha, China, Guest Professor of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, University of Science and Technology of China, Beijing Jiao Tong University and Jinan University, Guangzhou, China. He has served as the editor and guest editor for international journals and PC chairs and members/keynote speakers for various prestige international conferences. He is the Senior Member of IEEE and the Member of ACM.
