Interests: The main interest of my research is in the area of database technology. I am especially interested in XML data management in a database environment. XML has become the ubiquitous and “standard” language for web data/document publication; huge amount of data/documents formatted in XML has kept mounting up in a tremendous speed. Effective management and efficient querying of XML data are in great demand. My recent interest is focused on developing new storage models and novel query processing/optimization techniques suitable for XML. My other research interests include data mining, bioinformatics, and the persistence issue of intelligent agent systems.
Current focus: my current focus is on XML data management and XQuery optimization (access limited to team members only).

Opportunities for thesis/dissertation study: plenty of research topics for graduate thesis/dissertation study are available in the context of my research. Please email me if you have any questions or would like to set an appointment with me for a discussion.
Subject for non-thesis master students available as well!!
