  INDUSTRIAL EXPERIENCE

> Nokia Research Center
Palo Alto, CA
May.2008 ~ Dec.2008
Research Intern
with the Social Proximity Networks team
Studied and prototyped location-aware opportunistic messaging applications on mobile devices, which enable multiple forms of communications through heterogeneous wireless connectivities. The prototype was implemented in Python on the Symbian S60 platform on Nokia N95 8GB smart phones.

> Nokia Research Center
Palo Alto, CA
Jun.2007 ~ Dec.2007
Research Intern
with the Wireless Grids and Collaborative Devices team
Studied and prototyped video/voice streaming-enabled messaging and sharing
applications on mobile devices, which build proximity social networks through wireless peer-to-peer connections. The prototype was implemented in C on the Linux-based Maemo platform on Nokia N800 Internet tablets.

> ALi (Shanghai) Corporation
Shanghai, China
Mar.2003 ~ Aug.2003

Software Engineer
with the Rewritable DVD Recorder group
Developed the UDF file system module for ALi DVD recorder chip firmware.
