TMM, Inc. (PINKSHEETS:TMMI) ("TMMI") or (the "Company") is pleased
to announce the appointment of Dr. Mung Chiang to its advisory
board, effective November 1st, 2012.
Mung Chiang, PhD, is a Professor of Electrical Engineering at
Princeton University, and has served as the Director of Graduate
Studies in Electrical Engineering since 2009. He is also an
affiliated faculty in Applied and Computational Mathematics, and in
Computer Science.
Dr. Chiang is a leader in studying the structure and dynamics of
digital and wireless communications networks, such as cell phone
networks and the Internet. The field of "network science" has
advanced rapidly in recent decades as researchers have discovered
fundamental mathematical properties that are common to many types
of networks.
Chiang's research areas include the Internet, wireless networks,
broadband access networks, content distribution networks, network
economics, and online social networks. His research on networking
received awards such as the IEEE Kiyo Tomiyasu Award in 2012 "for
demonstrating the practicality of a new theoretical foundation for
the analysis and design of communication networks"; the U.S.
Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers in
2008 "for fundamental contributions to optimization, distributed
algorithm and stochastic analysis of communication networks"; the
Office of Naval Research Young Investigator Award in 2007, the
National Science Foundation CAREER Award in 2005; a selected
participant at the National Academy of Engineering Frontiers of
Engineering Symposium in 2008.
He has received numerous other awards for publications,
including the 2012 IEEE INFOCOM Best Paper Award; an ISI Citation
Fast Breaking Paper in Computer Science; a Young Researcher Award
Runner-Up in Continuous Optimization over 2004-2007; and IEEE
GLOBECOM. In recent decades, the field of "network science" has
advanced rapidly as researchers have discovered fundamental
mathematical properties that are common to many types of
networks.
With his extensive knowledge of video content delivery systems,
he will be a key contributor to the formation of TMM, Inc.'s
business plan. He has seen TRUDEF(TM) codec compression and
decompression of digital video in which high image quality with
small file size show huge potential financial benefit to content
delivery providers.
Dr, Chiang received his BS (Hons.), MS, and PhD degrees from
Stanford University in 1999, 2000, and 2003, respectively. He was
an Assistant Professor 2003-2008 and a tenured Associate Professor
2008-2011 at Princeton. He was a Hertz Fellow in 1999-2003, a H. B.
Wentz Junior Faculty at Princeton in 2005, and was elected an IEEE
Fellow in 2012.
