Benyuan Liu is a professor at the University of Massachusetts Lowell with over 13 years of academic experience focused on protocol design and performance evaluation of computer communication networks, wireless and mobile computing. His research spans network architecture, routing, topology control, mobility support and network management, combining theoretical analysis with practical evaluation. Trained in physics (USTC, Yale) and with advanced study at UMass Amherst, he brings a strong analytical foundation to complex networking and inverse-problem domains. Beyond networking, he contributes to computational imaging and FPGA-accelerated algorithms—work reflected in GitHub projects touching electrical impedance tomography, computational graphs, and HLS/SpinalHDL. He also maintains practical engineering artifacts such as a LaTeX thesis template used for graduate theses, showing attention to reproducible, user-facing tools. Based in Lowell, MA, he blends deep research insight with hands-on development of high-performance, application-oriented systems.
