Hello, I’m Chengzhang Li. I am currently a research scientist at NSF AI-EDGE Institute, the Ohio State University, supervised by Prof. Ness Shroff. I received my Ph.D. degree in Computer Engineering from Virginia Tech in 2022, supervised by Prof. Tom Hou. I received my B.S. degree in Electronic Engineering from Tsinghua University in 2017. My current research interests are AI on edge networks, Internet of Things, real-time scheduling in 5G/6G, and network optimization. My email address is li.13488@osu.edu.

I will join Department of Computer Science, Luddy School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering, at Indiana University Indianapolis as a tenure-track assistant professor in January 2026. I plan to recruit two fully-funded Ph.D. students starting in Fall 2026. If you are interested, please send me your CV and transcript.
