My PhD Project

Research Interests

My primary research interest lies in developing software support frameworks for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) for monitoring applications.

The WSN domain is a relatively new research area, and as such there is little specification of generic hardware or software approaches to use in addressing the research challenges encountered.  This has led to many applications being developed with tight integration between the application and the hardware platform applications are executed on.

My current research focuses on designing a unified architecture for wireless sensor networks, by developing a middleware API for wireless sensing devices. By providing a standardised approach to development for WSN applications, I hope to promote programming best practices of code reuse, interoperability and modularity towards rapid prototyping within the WSN domain.

Providing a structured framework and API  will assist not only the rapid development but also testing and deployment of WSN monitoring applications.
