Radia is a Fellow at Dell EMC. Her work shaped much of how computer networks work today. Her innovations in routing protocol design made network routing more robust, more scalable, and more easily and safely configurable. Her spanning tree algorithm transformed Ethernet from a single shared link into a technology that can support complex topologies and fairly large networks. She is the author of the textbook "Interconnections" and coauthor of "Network Security: Private Communication in a Public World". She has been recognized with many industry awards including induction into the National Academy of Engineering, the Inventor Hall of Fame, the Internet Hall of Fame, and lifetime achievement awards from ACM and Usenix. She has a PhD in computer science from MIT.
