Case Summary:

Chen Immigration Law Associates recently received an approval for a software engineering researcher specializing in the field of electrical engineering and computer science. Our client has made original and significant contributions to the field of computer science through her innovative work on peer-to-peer (P2P) streaming and computer networks. In peer-reviewed articles, first-authorship is indicative of contribution and our client is listed as the first author of 11 out of the 14 publications that bear her name. She is also the peer reviewer for at least 16 internationally-recognized prestigious scientific publications, reviewing 43 manuscripts. Our client’s expertise can also be seen in a quote by a full professor for the Department of Computer Science, “[The Petitioner’s] work in the design and modeling of mesh-based live peer-to-peer streaming mechanisms and her comparison of tree- vs. mesh-based peer-to-peer streaming solutions for fast and efficient content flow is an invaluable resource to other researchers in the field. In her work, [the Petitioner] has identified the performance bottlenecks in scalable streaming of high bandwidth multimedia to users and proposed the idea of two phases process of diffusion and swarming to overcome these obstacles. [The Petitioner’s] proposal focusing on the global flow of content rather than a local view of peers is both scientifically brilliant and technically illuminating. Additionally, [the Petitioner] proposed a novel algorithm and creative metrics to capture the performance of P2P streaming applications.” It was our goal to prove that this client qualifies for classification as an alien of extraordinary ability given that she seeks to remain in the United States to continue work in the area of extraordinary ability, and her continued research will substantially and prospectively benefit the United States.
