Research:

My research is focused on the architectural aspects of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), in particular on the design of local and network-wide system abstractions for WSNs that reconcile the conflicting requirements between application-specific performance optimization with portability, re-usability and productivity.

On the operating system level, our Hardware Abstraction Architecture (HAA) enables flexible selection of the appropriate level of abstraction for maximum performance or portability. The HAA has been selected as the blueprint for the abstraction of hardware in TinyOS 2.0, the most popular operating system for WSNs.

On the distributed-system level, our Publish/Subscribe Service provides a natural data-centric API that decouples the application logic from the complex inner workings of the system. At the same time, the service supports custom selection of the communication protocols for subscription dissemination and notification collection, allowing application-specific optimizations.
