Sessional Lecturer and Research Assistant at Western Sydney Unversity, Australia

Bio

I’m a Sessional Lecturer (Casual Academic) within the School of Computer, Data and Mathematical Sciences at Western Sydney University, Australia. I also work as a Research Assistant at the Smart and Distributed Computing (SDC) Lab under the guidance of Prof. Bahman Javadi and Associate Prof. Rodrigo N. Calheiros.

My research interests lie in improving resource management within the edge–cloud continuum using adaptive and autonomous solutions. I envision a fully operational, autonomous, and self-healing distributed system that adapts to real-time variability in the compute continuum to deliver optimal resource allocation.
