Evgeny Khorov

Evgeny Khorov received his BS and MS degrees with honors from MIPT in 2008 and 2010, respectively, and PhD degree in Telecommunications from IITP RAS in 2012. His PhD thesis focused on Quality of Service (QoS) provisioning in multihop wireless networks. Specifically, he has developed a theory of link management in multihop ad hoc networks, which was presented at the International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems in 2012 and evaluated with the Best Paper Award. Evgeny Khorov is also a recipient of Moscow Government Prize for Young Scientists (2013) for in-depth study of channel access in wireless multi-hop networks.

Evgeny Khorov has developed numerous mathematical models of networking protocols and designed several algorithms and protocols, which are described in over 50 papers. Evgeny has led a number of national and international projects sponsored by academia foundations (RSF, RFBR, Ministry of Education) and industry. For breakthrough results of the joint project, in 2015 and 2017 Huawei RRC awarded him as the Best Cooperation Project Leader. Evgeny Khorov is also a voting member and contributor of IEEE 802.11 that develops and standardizes Wi-Fi. In 2015-2016, he designed several improvements, which were included in the 802.11ax standard aka high efficiency WLANs. In 2015 he studied technologies for the Internet of Things as a Visiting Research Fellow in King's College London. In 2016 Evgeny Khorov received Russian Government Prize in Science and Technology for Young Scientists for remarkable results of research and development of wireless networks.

Evgeny Khorov gives tutorials and participates in panels at large IEEE conferences (incl. Globecom 2017, PIMRC 2017, ICC 2016, ISWCS 2014, etc.). He is an Executive Chair of WiFlex 2013, ITaS 2014, 2015 and 2016 and Tutorial Chair of IEEE BlackSeaCom 2018. He serves as an expert of Russian Academy of Sciences and Russian Science Foundation, and also as a reviewer for high-reputed scientific journals and conferences.
