Jack Lee received his B.Eng and Ph.D in Information Engineering from the Chinese University of Hong Kong in 1993 and 1997 respectively. He participated in the research and development of commercial video streaming systems from 1997 to 1998, and later joined the Department of Computer Science at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology as Assistant Professor from 1998-1999. In 1999 he joined the Department of Information Engineering at the Chinese University of Hong Kong and established the Multimedia Communications Laboratory to conduct research in distributed multimedia systems, fault-tolerant systems, peer-to-peer systems, multicast communications, and Internet computing.
In addition to academic research in multimedia systems and network communications, Jack is also active in applied R&D projects. Recent examples include Project OPERA and the Hong Kong IP Multicast Initiative.
