Research Programme
The future impact of
pervasive computing is an area of very active research. We are
interested in the applications of dynamic hardware, wireless
networking, ad-hoc sensor networks and protcol design in this
area to improve system performance. We are also looking at the
applications of advanced coding techniques in the area of
mobile third generation networks. The Group has links with
both the Aston Institute of Photonic Technologies and the Neural Computing
Research Group. A range of theoretical, experimental and CAD
design techniques are used to investigate novel architectures
and protocols.
