Dr Chin Teck Min’s research highlights the application layer’s overlay network for distributed information-sharing systems and efforts to improve its reliability and efficiency in heterogeneous environments (computers, network capability and working hours). His research focuses on the overlay network that exhibits the reoccurrence characteristic where a node arrives and leaves the networks in a constant pattern. Through research, he aims to achieve faster convergence speed and efficiency in terms of network resource usage. Besides the research area, he also has taught Object Oriented Programming, Functional Programming Principles and Distributed system.
