Brief Bio (CV in HTML)

Fan ZHANG was a Visiting Assistant Professor at the Department of Computer Science, HKUST from August 2005 to July 2006. He received his BS degree in Computer Science from Fudan University, Shanghai, in 1999, and PhD in Computer Science from HKUST in July 2005. His thesis advisors were Professor Samuel T. Chanson and Professor Lionel Ni.

....I am now a Software Development Lead with Microsoft Server and Tools Business China (Shanghai) working on Windows Home Server. While I still check my CSD email account every day, this account will expire as soon as this page is taken down :).
