Short Bio:

Dr. Baek-Young Choi is an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science Electrical Engineering at the University of Missouri - Kansas City. She received her Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. She held positions at Sprint Advanced Technology Labs, and the University of Minnesota, Duluth, as a post-doctoral researcher, and 3M McKnight distinguished visiting assistant professor, respectively. She has been a fellow of U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory, Visiting Faculty Research Program (AFRL-VFRP). Her research interests lie in the broad area of algorithm and system development for diverse types of networks, especially in resource management and network monitoring. She has authored a book, ‘Scalable Network Monitoring in High Speed Networks.?She has served on NSF and DOE panels multiple times, and is currently an associate editor for Springer Journal of Telecommunication Systems. She has also served as a technical program committee member, session chair, organizing committee member, and reviewer for more than 40 international conferences and workshops. Her research has been supported by several agencies including NSF, Sprint-Nextel, AFRL, U. Missouri System, and UMKC.
