I am currently working as a Lecturer in the Programmable Networking Lab at the University of New South Wales (UNSW), Sydney, Australia. I received my B.Eng. (First Class Hons.) and Ph.D. degree from the University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia in 2017 and 2022 respectively.

My current research interests encompass Internet and Computer Networks with a specific focus on Network Measurement for multimedia Quality-of-Experience and Cybersecurity, leveraging novel techniques of programmable networks, data-driven analytics, and AI/machine learning.

I actively publish at the two top conferences (ACM SIGMETRICS and ACM IMC) of the Measurement & Performance Analysis System Discipline ranked by CSRankings; and JCR Q1 journals in the Computer Networks and Communications discipline.

The website also contains a list of my publications, blogs, teaching and professional services. You may also find my profile at Google Scholar and ResearchGate.

(For Future Students): Our group is continously looking for PhD students and UNSW undergraduate/honours thesis students who are self-motivated and have strong background in computer networks and systems. If you are interested, please do not hestiate contacting me via email [minzhao.lyu@unsw.edu.au].
