Kun Tan received the B.E., M.E. and Ph.D. degree in Computer Science and Engineering from Tsinghua University, Beijing, China, in 1997, 1999, and 2002 respectively. He joined Microsoft Research Asia as an Associate Researcher, in April 2002. He is now a Researcher in Wireless and Networking Group. His research interests include transport protocols, congestion control, delay-tolerant networking, and wireless networks and systems. He is a member of IEEE. He has filed 6 pending patents after he joined Microsoft. Dr. Tan studied Multimedia Transmission and Transcoding in the Internet and wireless networks in his Ph.D thesis work. He implemented a content-sensitive streaming protocol for video over wireless networks, when he visited Siemens Corporate Research in New Jersey in 2001. After graduated and joined Microsoft, he has studied various issues related to transport and congestion control for wireless networks and very high-speed Internet. He developed the STODER method for spurious timeouts detection for TCP over slow wireless links and then the Compound TCP for the very-high speed Internet links. Recently, he focus on addressing various issues related to infrastructure-less wireless networks—mobility, measurement, optimization, and management.
