Dr. Sudhir Aggarwal is Professor in the Computer Science Department at Florida State University, since the fall of 2002. From 2002-2005 he was the Department Chair. Previous to joining FSU he was Chief Technology Officer of the Internet Content Delivery and Distribution business unit of Lucent Technologies, where he was responsible for the architecture, portfolio, and design and development of the Imminet content delivery networks product line that included intelligent 4/7 switches and caches (static, steaming, secure). Sudhir was also Director of the Network Computing Research Department at Bell Laboratories where he directed a research group exploring software infrastructures for next generation networks. Before joining Lucent Technologies, he was Professor and Chair of the Computer Science Department at the State University of New York at Binghamton. Sudhir received the Ph.D. degree from the University of Michigan in Computer and Communication Sciences in 1975, and M.S. and B.S degrees in Mathematics from the University of Michigan and Stanford University respectively.
