Biography

James graduated with first-class honours from his undergraduate degree in Computer Science from º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ in 2021. He is now studying for a PhD in computer science, with particular focus on networking, visualisation, and emulation. He was awarded an Internet Society Pulse Research Fellowship in early 2024 and has worked on global Internet measurement, including giving an invited talk at the IETF-120 in Vancouver.

Research

In his PhD, James' research focuses on reducing the size of the BGP routing table using compact landmark routing. The potential for massive reductions in state size allow greater in-router processing on existing devices, as well as benefits for carbon-aware networking. He had a short paper published at CoNEXT'23 (https://doi.org/10.1145/3630202.3630226).
