I am a computer scientist, broadly interested in networking. More particularly, my research aims at understanding, designing, and developing solutions for (sustainable and energy) efficient networking, mostly leveraging wireless radio resource management schemes. You can check also the projects (MISD, 6G FNS, EERI) we are currently working on.

Currently, I act as Scientific Director of 4TU-NIRICT. 

You can find more details on my research, the excellent team we're working with and our activities at my website: https://suzanbayhan.github.io/
