Brief Bio

I've been teaching in Knight Foundation School of Computing and Information Sciences at FIU since Fall 2017. During the first five years, I've taught 19 different courses including three graduate courses and one Ph.D. core course to more than 4000 students and my average teaching evaluation score according to students perception of teaching surveys is 4.6+/5. I received my Masters and Ph.D. in Computer Science from Florida International University in 2016 and 2017 respectively. Also, I received my B.S. degree from University of Tehran in 2012. I've authored and edited a total of six books published by MIT Press and Springer publications. My peer-reviewed journal papers and conference proceedings have been cited more than 900 times since 2017.
