Adisak Mekkittikul received his B.Eng. from King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang in Thailand and M.S. in electrical engineering from Wichita State University [1]. He completed the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering at Stanford University, Stanford, CA. He was a Senior Member of Technical Staff at Berkeley Concept Research Corp.

While studying at Stanford, he worked on high performance networking problems. By introducing two maximum weight matching algorithms, Mekkittikul and his Stanford advisor Professor McKeown proved that it is possible to achieve 100% throughput in an input-queued switch. Dr. Mekkittikul is a co-recipient of IEEE Communications Society Stephen O. Rice Prize Paper Award in the Field of Communications Theory for the best original paper published in the IEEE Transactions on Communications.
