MISSION
 
The Mobile Computing and Networking (MCN) lab conducts research in many areas of wireless networks and mobile computing, with an emphasis on designing and evaluating mobile systems, protocols, and applications. Our mission is to prepare the next generation of researchers, developers, and educators in these areas by working on cutting-edge technologies and investigating high-impact research projects. Our projects span a large spectrum: wireless sensor networks, wireless network security, data dissemination, distributed fault tolerant computing, and power aware resource management in mobile computing systems. Protocols, algorithms, and systems developed within the lab are typically tested through analysis, simulation and/or implementation. The lab is supported by NSF (CAREER, ITR, NeTS/WN, NOSS, CT), Army Research Office, DoD/MURI, DoD/DTRA, PDG/TTC, HK CERG, and industry companies Cisco, Narus, Telcordia, IBM and 3ETI.
