Research Projects

My research addresses the issue of bridging extreme-scale urban sensor infrastructure, effective data analysis and system designing for complex urban systems in an interdisciplinary perspective. Currently, my research fruitions cover the follow topics:

Data-driven Intelligent Transportation System

Metropolitan-scale traffic data generated by vehicles inspire research in various fields (e.g., urban sensing, traffic data analytics, facility planning, routing). How to extract and utilize significant information for designing intelligent transportation system is challenging and necessary.

Mobile Opportunistic Networks

Unlike mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) that require end-to-end communication paths, the communication in mobile opportunistic networks takes place when device carriers come into contact. The proper utilization of the mobility patterns of the nodes requires fine-grained analysis and modeling.

Mobile Content Sharing

Distributed content sharing in networks formed by mobile devices can potentially support various useful applications. In such networks, nodes often present certain social network properties of their holders in terms of contents (i.e., interests) and contacts. How to utilize such properties to maximize content retrieval performance is worth exploring.
