Alexander E. Mohr's Publications
Research Interests
Since 2008, I've been working at the Google office in Seattle's
Fremont neighborhood. Before that, my research broadly focused on
multimedia networks and systems, with an emphasis on reliable delivery
of time-sensitive multimedia, and the algorithms necessary for such
networks and systems to operate efficiently.
