CUHK DREAMS Lab invites PhD and Hong Kong PhD Fellowship applicants
The DREAMS Lab (Design of Reliable and Efficient Algorithms, Models, and Systems) at The Chinese University of Hong Kong is led by Prof. Minghua Chen (http://staff.ie.cuhk.edu.hk/~mhchen/), at the Department of Information Engineering, CUHK. The department is known to be the birth place of Network Coding.
Prof. Minghua Chen received his BEng from Tsinghua University and his PhD from University of California at Berkeley. The Information Engineering department is perhaps best known to be the birth place of Network Coding, a fast-growing field across the areas of Information Theory, Communication, Networking, Distributed Storage and Coding, and Security. It also recently gains reputation in energy area due to the contribution in energy efficient data centers and smart grids.
The research of the DREAMS Lab spans a wide spectrum from theory development to system building. The current research themes of the DREAMS lab focus on analysis, design, and system-building of energy systems (including power grids and data centers), distributed network optimization, peer-to-peer networking, wireless networking, network coding, and delay-constrained communications. The DREAMS Lab has close collaboration with renowned research groups worldwide, such as Tsinghua University, MSR Redmond, UC Berkeley, Princeton, and UMass. The research in the Lab is supported by various funds from Hong Kong government, including the prestigious Area of Excellence Grant (108M HKD) and Theme-Based Research Grant (60M HKD), two China 973 grants (35M RMB), and three gift grants from MSR and Cisco.
Researchers from DREAMS Lab have received world-wide reputation for their substantial contributions. For example, they received the Eli Jury Doctoral Thesis award from UC Berkeley in 2007, The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) Young Researcher Award 2013, CUHK Faculty of Engineering Outstanding MPhil Thesis Award 2013, the ICME Best Paper Award in 2009, the IEEE Transactions on Multimedia Best Paper Award in 2009, and ACM Multimedia Best Paper Award in 2012. Other recognitions include several journal/society paper and researcher awards nominations, CUHK Faculty of Engineering Outstanding MPhil Thesis Award Honorable Mention in 2012, and ACM MobiHoc 2014 Best Paper Finalist. They have published extensively on premier venues such as IEEE Trans on Information Theory, IEEE Trans on Networking, IEEE Trans on Multimedia, IEEE JSAC, IEEE Trans on Distributed and Parallel Systems, IEEE Trans on Knowledge and Data Engineering, IEEE ISIT, ACM Multimedia, IEEE ICNP, IEEE ICDCS, IEEE INFOCOM, WWW, ACM SIGMETRICS, ACM MobiHoc, and ACM MobiCom. Their recent work on WISER for exploring indoor vacant TV channels for wireless networking receives a number of International news coverage. See http://staff.ie.cuhk.edu.hk/~mhc ... or.white.space.html for more details.
The DREAMS Lab now invites strong PhD applicants for the 2014-15 application season. In particular, we encourage students to apply the prestigious Hong Kong PhD Fellowship Scheme:

http://www2.cuhk.edu.hk/gss/hkphd/
“The Fellowship provides an annual stipend of HK$240,000 (approximately US$30,000) and a conference and research-related travel allowance of HK$10,000 (approximately US$1,300) per year to each awardee for a period of up to three years.”
If you are interested, please contact Prof. Minghua Chen (http://staff.ie.cuhk.edu.hk/~mhchen/) with your CV. If you have a two-body problem, we are open to explore solutions for resolving it.
