Tiffany Jing Li received the B.S. degree in
computer science from Peking University (Beijing University), Beijing,
China, the masters and Ph.D. degree in electrical
engineering from Texas
A&M University, College Station, in 1997, 1999, and 2002, respectively.
Her graduate advisors are Professor
Krishna Narayanan
and Professor
Costas Georghiades.
She spent the summer of 2000 and 2001 with
Seagate Research, Pittsburgh, PA, and with Tyco Communications Laboratories, Eatontown,
NJ, conducting coding research for magnetic recording systems and long-haul fiber optical communication systems.
Right after obtaining her Ph.D. degree, she joined the
Electrical and
Computer Engineering Department at
Lehigh University where she is now an
associate professor.
Her research interests fall in the
general areas of coding and communication theory, wireless communications and networks, free-space optical
and
fiber optical communications, and digital data storage systems.
Her recent reserach focuses include
turbo/LDPC/TPC codes and iterative decoding,
MDS erasure codes and digital
fountain, quantum error correction coding and quantum communication,
distributed source coding
and joint source-channel coding, user cooperation and network coding,
wireless ad-hoc and sensory networks, and distributed network storage.
Dr. Li is an associate editor for IEEE Communications Letters. She served
as a Symposium Co-Chair for the Signal Processing Symposium in
2005
IEEE
Global Communications Conference (GLOBECOM), the Signal
Processing for
Communications Symposium in 2005 IEEE WirelessCom, the
Signal Processing and Communication Theory Symposium in 2006
Chinacom, and the Communication Theory Symposium in 2007
International Conference on Communications (ICC).
She received many
awards in research, academic performance
and mathematics and physics competitions, including the Ethel
Ashworth-Tsutsui
Memorial Award for Research in 2001 for "demonstrating excellence in
research at Texas A&M University", the Peking University Outstanding
Honors Science Student Award
in 1997, the Chinese Academy of Science Striving Scholarship
from 1994 to 1997, the candidacyship and
third place prize in the '93 Chinese Mathematics Olympiad (CMO, "The
Winter Camp"), and the first place prize in both '92 Chinese National
Mathematics
Competition for High School Students and '92
Chinese National Physics Competition for High School Students
(Zhejiang Province).
