Dr. Ahmad Taghinezhad
Assistant Professor of Computer Engineering, University of Tabriz
I have the privilege of leading the Distributed Systems & Intelligent Systems Lab at the University of Tabriz. Our research explores mathematical modeling, formal verification, and scalable cloud–edge architectures, with a focus on efficient scheduling, robustness, and system correctness in distributed environments.
Beyond theory, we also develop AI-powered applications for industry, bringing innovative ideas into practice. I truly enjoy mentoring graduate and undergraduate students, helping them apply scientific thinking to solve real-world challenges.
Collaboration is at the heart of our work. I actively build international partnerships that accelerate technology transfer and open new directions for research and innovation.
If you are a student or researcher excited about distributed and intelligent systems—or if you are curious about collaborating on impactful project, I’d be glad to connect.
