Yang Guo
Senior Computer Scientist
I am a senior computer scientist with the Advanced Network Technologies Division (ANTD) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Prior to the current position, I was a Member of Technical Staff at Network Protocols and Systems Research Department, Bell Labs Research (Crawford Hill, New Jersey) from 2010 to 2015. Prior to that, I was a Principal Scientist at Technicolor (formerly Thomson) Corporate Research at Princeton, NJ. I obtained Ph.D. from University of Massachusetts at Amherst in year 2000, and M.S. and B.S. from Shanghai Jiao Tong University (with Honor, top 1% in the class).
My research interests span broadly over the distributed systems and networks, with a focus on Software Defined Networks (SDN), cybersecurity, and AI/ML. I am the author of many published papers and patents. See my publications at Publication Page or Google scholar, and patents here.
