The Challenges

Connectivity is the defining feature of the modern world and has enabled many of the exciting technologies that we have come to rely upon every day. From personal social interactions to crowd-driven applications, from device-to-device communication to long-distance remote sensing, from vehicular networks to smart infrastructure, integrating computation with varied methods of communication is fundamental to this advancement. As this trend continues apace, we must address questions of how to scale bandwidth to support orders of magnitude more connected devices, how to integrate more intelligence in these constrained systems, and how to do this within a more environmentally conscious energy budget.

Our Research

The Connected Systems Group brings together academics and research staff with interests in wireless, optical molecular/nanoscale communications, cyber security, and the tight interplay between computation and communication to explore technologies for transforming how we live and interact with modern infrastructure and services, from online processing and autonomous adaptive systems, to secure networks and wireless systems. The fundamental advances in the group will produce impact in application areas such as next-generation mobile networks (5G/6G), IoT networks, vehicular communications, cyber physical systems, smart grids, robotic networks, and future healthcare systems. Our specific research areas are as follows:
