Prof. Shui Yu
University of Technology Sydney, Australia

Shui Yu is Professor of the School of Computer Science in the Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology at UTS, the Deputy Chair of the UTS Research Committee, and is a researcher of cybersecurity, privacy and the networking, communication aspects of Big Data, and applied mathematics for computer science.
In 2013, he initiated a new field, networking for big data, in the networking and communication domain. Shui was the leading editor of Networking for Big Data, published in 2015, which supplied an unprecedented look at cutting-edge research on the networking and communication aspects of Big Data.
Many of his research outputs have been adopted by industry, for example, the auto scale strategy of Amazon Cloud against distributed denial-of-service attacks.
As the corporate world has increasingly adopted new technologies to analyze and store vast amounts of data in a bid to generate valuable insights and unlock strategic value, Shui has concentrated on the privacy and security concerns associated with big data.
Among other issues, he has researched security issues associated with smart grids, which present opportunities to help solve the problems of carbon emissions and the energy crisis.
He has also investigated creating anonymous transactions on Blockchain to deal with threats to users’ privacy. His anonymous communication work for web browsing privacy has been cited by more than 200 US patents.
He has published two monographs and edited two books, and produced more than 600 technical papers, published in top journals such as IEEE TPDS, TC, TIFS, TMC, TKDE, TETC, ToN, and INFOCOM. His h-index is 80.
Shui serves his research communities in various roles, including serving on the editorial boards of IEEE Communications Surveys and Tutorials, IEEE Communications Magazine and the IEEE Internet of Things Journal, among others.
He has been a member of organizing committees for many international conferences, such as the publication chair for IEEE Globecom 2015, IEEE INFOCOM 2016 and 2017, TPC chair for IEEE Big Data Service 2015, and general chair for ACSW 2017.
He served as a Distinguished Lecturer of IEEE Communications Society (2018-2021). He is a Distinguished Visitor of IEEE Computer Society (2022-2024), a voting member of IEEE ComSoc Educational Services board, and an elected member of Board of Governors of IEEE Communications Society and IEEE Vehicular Technology Society, respectively.
