Dr Sijing Zhang

Sijing Zhang obtained his B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees, both in Computer Science, from Jilin University, Changchun, China in 1982 and 1988, respectively. He earned a PhD degree in Computer Science from the University of York, UK in 1996. He then joined the Network Technology Research Centre (NTRC) of Nanyang Technological University, Singapore as a post-doctoral fellow. In 1998, he returned to the UK to work as a research fellow with the Centre for Communications Systems Research (CCSR) of the University of Cambridge. He joined the School of Computing and Technology, University of Derby, UK, as a senior lecturer in 2000. Since October 2004, he has been working as a senior lecturer in the School of Computer Science and Technology, University of Bedfordshire, UK. His research interests include wireless networking, schedulability tests for hard real-time traffic, performance analysis and evaluation of real-time communication protocols, QoS provision, vehicular ad-hoc networks, and wireless networks for real-time industrial applications.
