Inwoo Hwang

I am a graduate student in Computer Science and Engineering at Seoul National University, advised by Byoung-Tak Zhang and Sanghack Lee. I am affiliated with AIIS. Prior to joining Ph.D program, I did my master study in School of Computing at KAIST. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Department of Mathematical Sciences from KAIST.
