Hello

, it's me

Ehab Ghabashneh

I am a Ph.D. candidate at Purdue University focusing on the area of computer networks and software systems. Specifically, I develop measurement-based network systems to optimize Internet applications. Through my PhD, I constructed a longstanding collaboration with Meta to build large-scale network system to characterize traffic dynamics.

📣📣 I am currently open to research scientist and software engineering positions

Research Projects

Through Ph.D., I led the following projects:

Dragonfly. A new 360° system designed for interactivity by proactively skipping playback stalls while maintaining high perceptual quality.

Millisampler. Characterization tool of traffic bursts, buffer contention, and loss which is deployed across all Meta (AKA Facebook) servers.

MPC-CDN. A modified version of MPC (i.e., adaptive bitrate algorithm) which incorporates Content-Delivery-Networks(CDN) information for higher throughput prediction accuracy.

P-VP9. A modified version of VP9 (i.e., Google video encoder) to parallelize encoding and transmission of 4K video frames. [Project stopped]
