Research: |
My research interests include computational complexity theory,
optimization algorithms, and network security. I am interested in average
complexity and average-case NP-completeness; in algorithmic problems arising
from practical applications, including wireless sensor networks, biomedicine,
computational medicine, networking, and network-processor-based application
performance modeling; and in applications of cryptography in network
security, security protocols, and wireless security. |

The Path to
Greatness -- by Bill Hybels
In each heart is a built-in
mechanism that craves self-promotion and advancement, the climb of ego. Our
role models and heroes reinforce the theme: Ascend and flex the muscles of your
self-will. Do whatever it takes to conquer gravity. Whether you do it blatantly
or wear the disguise of humility, make yourself
upwardly mobile. Why? Because that is the direction of
greatness.
Philippians 2 said: If you want to be truly great, then the
direction you must go is down. You must descend into greatness. At the heart of
this paradox is still another paradox: Greatness is not a measure of self-will,
but rather self-abandonment. The more you lose, the more you gain.
