It must be difficult to keep this posture for so long!
This is a real person!
Imperial College
I visited University of Cambridge in this trip and especially enjoyed their King's College.
I attended WWW'06 at Edinburgh, Scotland. We had a reception at the Edinburgh Castle. The castle is beautiful (pic1 pic2) and have a nice view. It was well-defended. I like Scottish music.
The conference provided simple lunch in the exhibition room. On the last day of the conference, we had a nice dinner at a Chinese restaurant. The son of the restaurant's owner performed magic shows for us.
We went on a bus tour to the highland. I like the grassland (pic 1 pic 2), the mountain, and the Scottish cows. Later, we went to a Scottish Lochs. There is a run down castle (pic 1 pic 2) near the lochs.
I'm looking forward to next year's WWW.
I attended Cornell Computer Science 40th Anniversary Symposium. I re-visited the apartment I lived in during my second year there.
This photo was taken with my co-author at ICDCS'05 in Ohio.
We had a walking tour in Tokyo after the WWW'05 conference.
Later, I visited a Chinese professor at University of Tsukuba.
I also took a photo with a famous scientist. Can you guess who he is?
Summer 2004
This photo was taken when Geoff Volker and Leeann Bent visited AT&T Labs in February 2004.
Later, the four of us had a lunch together at the WWW'04 conference.
Our work on the evaluation of the Inktomi Personal Edge product won the Research Excellence Award from the Vice President of AT&T Labs.
I visited San Francisco in June 2003 during the DSN conference.
I really enjoyed the Golden Gate and watching the Sea Lions.
I had a dinner with my Cornell alumni at a Chinese restaurant in Seattle during my USITS trip in March 2003.
I visited Paris in November 2002 during the SIGCOMM IMW workshop.
This photo was taken on the Alexander III bridge.
This photo was taken at Napoleon Tomb. I was sitting on a canon. You can also find the Alexander III bridge, big and small palace on the picture.
The Versaille Palace is big (pic1 pic2 pic3) and has a lovely garden, but I was a bit sleepy that day.
