Biography
Ren Ping Liu (刘仁平) received his B.E. and M.E. degrees from Beijing University of Posts and Telecomms, China, and the Ph.D. degree from the University of Newcastle, Australia. Since joining CSIRO in 1995, he has been heavily involved in and led commercial projects ranging from QoS design, TCP/IP inter-networking, security, wireless networking, to next generation network architectures. As a CSIRO consultant, he delivered networking solutions to government and industrial customers, including Optus, AARNet, Nortel, Queensland Health, CityRail, Rio Tinto, and DBCDE.
Dr Liu is a principal scientist of networking technology in CSIRO ICT Centre. His interests include network security, scheduling, QoS modelling and performance analysis of wireless networks, including IEEE 802.11, Wireless Mesh Networks, Wireless Sensor Networks, LTE, and Cognitive Radio Networks.
