Now I am a graduate student in Computer Science department, University of Saskatchewan. My supervisor is Nadeem Jamali. My research interest lies in distributed systems, mobile agents, and concurrent programming, especially resource management among concurrent objects. There is increasing interest in Mobile Agents, which are active objects that migrate across machines. However, management of resource sharing is critical in this area. CyberOrgs, organizing computations and resources in a hierarchy, is one of the approaches to manage resources among competitive and collaborative agents. At present, I am trying to develop an efficient implementation for CyberOrgs, and test it on an existed concurrent object-oriented system--Actor Archetecture, which was developed in Open System Laboratory based on Actor Theory.
