Building a secure decentralized world

Celebrated Professor of Engineering at Stanford University
& co-founder of Babylon Protocol.

The inventor of the legendary proportional-fair scheduling algorithm, David has redefined the landscape of cellular technology, with billions of users worldwide benefiting from its unparalleled speed.

It's no exaggeration to say that if you're experiencing the lightning-fast connectivity of 3G, 4G, or 5G, you're already utilizing the revolutionary technology developed by David Tse.

For this and his many other contributions to wireless communications, he received the IEEE Claude E. Shannon Award and the IEEE Richard W. Hamming Medal, the two top awards in the information sciences. Named after the pioneers of the information age, previous recipients of these awards include Whitfield Diffie and Martin Hellman (inventors of public-key cryptography) and Andrew Viterbi (co-founder of Qualcomm Inc. and pioneer of CDMA technology)

ABOUT DAVID TSE

Pioneering Blockchain Research for a Decentralized Future

Driven by his belief that the current control of information infrastructure by a handful of companies is detrimental to society, David has in recent years turned his sights to blockchains, which he saw as a solution that could empower people and propel innovations. With his characteristic strategic mindset, David initiated a research program in blockchain infrastructure and soon found a new home in this field.

Today, David's research group at Stanford is actively collaborating with top industry blockchain projects, such as the Ethereum Foundations, Protocol Labs, and Cardano, on improving the security and scalability of blockchain consensus protocols.

David's team has recently made significant contributions to enhancing the security of the PoS Ethereum Consensus protocol.
