Über den Autor

Liang Song is currently a Chair Professor with Fudan University, as the director of Fudan Institute on Networking Systems of AI (FINSAI), along with numerous distinguished or adjunct appointments, e.g., Chairman of Institute on Networking Systems of AI, the Professor with the University of Toronto (Canada), and the Chairman of Shanghai 5G-VR Alliance, among others. He also sits in board of numerous high technology companies. Prof. Song's work converges communication networks and AI systems, empowering a myriad of industries. His engineering contributions facilitated the continuous upgrading of telecommunications and the Internet, among which he had made key contributions in developing 5GtoB applications and engineering practices. By laying the foundation for new network infrastructure, his work enables the cross-layer processing of communications, computing and system applications, based on distributed artificial intelligence services. This approach is providing holistic online evolutive learning for real-time AI sensing, control, and generating, becoming an indispensable path for constructing networked AGI. In these technical areas, he has published more than 200 referred papers, 8 monographs, and invented over 100 patents. Due to his significant technical and engineering contributions, he was elected as a Fellow of Chinese National Distinguished Experts in 2013, and a Fellow of Canadian Academy of Engineering (CAE) in 2019.
