Research

My research interests lie broadly in computer networks, distributed systems, operating systems and real-time computing. Currently, my research is mainly focusing on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), a new information paradigm based on the collaboration of a large number of self-organized sensing nodes. These networks form the basis for many promising applications such as immersive gaming, intelligent battlefields, hazard response systems, smart hospitals and learning environments. My research is mainly system-oriented - building practical systems such as VigilNet. I also devote my research effort to several major topics in WSNs such as localization, energy efficiency, real-time, networking, programming abstraction and wireless modeling.
