Objective

The goal of this laboratory is to investigate issues in mobile computing and multimedia and to find solutions to the technical problems in these areas. The future integration of these two technologies will also require solutions to the specific problems that arise with these combined.

Currently we are looking at wireless and mobility problems such as routing protocols and algorithms, resource and service location protocols, performance evaluation of NFS and TCP, and mechanism to improve throughput over wireless links. On multimedia and ATM networks, we are concerned with (video) data encoding and compression, resource allocation, traffic characterization and shaping, and multimedia teleconferencing. We are also working on designing a new class of operating system especially suitable for multimedia applications.
