About

I am Md Washik Al Azad. Currently, I am pursuing my Ph.D. degree in Information Technology at the University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO), USA. I also received my Bachelor's degree in Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering (ETE) from Rajshahi University of Engineering & Technology, Bangladesh. My research interests include edge computing, network systems, and security. Currently, I am working at the Network Systems Research laboratory at UNO under the supervision of Dr. Spyridon Mastorakis.
