Waterman Award

美国国家科学基金会 (NSF) 很高兴地宣布，普林斯顿大学电气工程系 Arthur LeGrand Doty 教授 Mung Jiang 被选为 2013 年艾伦 T. 沃特曼奖获得者。蒋博士还是普林斯顿大学计算机科学系和应用与计算数学系的附属教授。沃特曼奖是美国国家科学基金会 (NSF) 的最高荣誉。该年度奖项旨在表彰 NSF 支持的任何科学或工程领域 35 岁以下的杰出研究人员。除了奖牌之外，今年的获奖者还将在五年内获得 100 万美元的资助，用于在其领域进行进一步的高级研究。蒋教授是普林斯顿 EDGE 实验室的创始人，该实验室通过跨多个学科边界以及学术界和工业界的合作，弥合网络理论与实践的鸿沟。他的团队不断重新审视网络工程制品的数学结晶。 他的研究调查了一系列不断发展的项目，涵盖技术网络和人类网络的建模、分析和设计。蒋教授还获得了 2012 年 IEEE Kiyo Tomiyasu 奖（表彰通信网络分析和设计新理论基础的实用性）、2008 年美国总统科学家和工程师早期职业奖、2007 年海军研究办公室青年研究员奖和 2005 年国家科学基金会职业奖。 2007年当选为IEEE Fellow，2012年当选为IEEE Fellow。

The National Science Foundation (NSF) is pleased to announce the selection of Mung Chiang , the Arthur LeGrand Doty Professor of Electrical Engineering at Princeton University, to receive its 2013 Alan T. Waterman Award. Dr. Chiang is also an associated faculty of Computer Science and an affiliated faculty of the Department of Applied and Computational Mathematics at Princeton.The Waterman Award is the National Science Foundation's (NSF) highest honor. The annual award recognizes outstanding researchers under the age of 35 in any field of science or engineering that NSF supports. In addition to a medal, this year's awardee will receive a $1 million grant over a five-year period for further advanced study in his field.Professor Chiang, is the founder of the Princeton EDGE Lab, which bridges over the theory-practice divide in networking through collaboration across many disciplinary boundaries as well as the academia-industry boundary. His team constantly re-examines the mathematical crystallization of engineering artifacts in networking. His research investigates an evolving set of projects spanning the modeling, analysis, and design of networks, both technological and human ones. Prof. Chiang also received the 2012 IEEE Kiyo Tomiyasu Award -for demonstrating the practicality of a new theoretical foundation for the analysis and design of communication networks', a U.S. Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers in 2008, an Office of Naval Research Young Investigator Award in 2007, and a National Science Foundation CAREER Award in 2005. He was named as an MIT Technology Review TR35 Young Innovator in 2007, and was elected an IEEE Fellow in 2012.
