ABOUT ME
I am an Assistant Professor, leading the Software Engineering and Security group (SESlab) in the Computer and Information Security Department at Sejong University. I am holding the position of oneM2M Test Working Group Chair, IEEE ComSoc Standards for IoT Architectures Research Group Chair, and TTA IoT/M2M Convergence Special Project Gror oup Vice Chair.
Prior to my current position, I worked for NEC Europe Ltd. between 2012 and 2013 as a leading standard senior researcher. At that time, I actively participated in IoT related R&D projects such as the Building as a Service (BaaS) FP 7 project and IoT/M2M standardisations (i.e., ETSI TC M2M and oneM2M). From 2002 to 2008, I worked for LG Electronics as a senior researcher leading a 3GPP SA standard team. I occupied leadership positions in 3GPP and oneM2M standard groups as a rapporteur and active contributor. I received a PhD at Imperial College London in the Department of Computing, United Kingdom. I hold BS and MS in Computer Science from Sogang University.

RESEARCH INTERESTS
My research interests span the areas of software engineering, networked systems and security, with focus on the design and engineering of reliable IoT/M2M platforms, particularly in the context of semantic IoT data interoperability, secure software patch techniques and big data analytics. I also hold leadership roles (Publicity Chair and TPC Co-Chair) in several conferences such as Publicity Chair of IEEE WF-IoT 2014 and TPC Co-Chair of “The 3rd IEEE Workshop on Telecommunications Standards: from Research to Standards”. I have also served as reviewer for many international peer-reviewed journals such as the IEEE Wireless Communications Magazine, IEEE Sensors Journal and Elsevier’s Technological Forecasting and Social Change journal.
