Md Tariqul Islam ‘Pavel’ is an Assistant Professor of Trustworthy Cyberspace in the School of Information Studies at the Syracuse University. Pavel received his bachelor’s degree (2008) in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Dhaka, Bangladesh. He earned his master’s (2016) and Ph.D. (2020) in Computer Science from the University of Kentucky. Pavel’s work in general focuses on the security and fault tolerance of distributed computing systems. His aim is to devise novel schemes, algorithms, and protocols that support the development of secure, reliable, and trustworthy distributed networks (e.g., cloud, edge, and vehicular networks). His research supports these undertakings, and he always thrives to design and deliver practical approaches to problems being experienced in industry or society. Other than the above areas, Pavel would also like to investigate new research topics in closely related areas such as, mobile cloud, sensor network, software-defined network, Internet of things (IoT), and block chain-based distributed systems.
