Energy profiling and management for networked embedded systems and smartphones
We try to understand how embedded applications spend energy in two fronts: wireless
sensor
nodes and smartphones. In the former front, we use the Quanto framework to determine the
breakdown of energy among hardware components over time. By associating energy
consumption
with high-level activities, we intend to create a framework that enables energy
management for
operations between nodes and internal scheduling. In the latter front, we use a similar
approach
by instrumenting the Linux kernel to collect energy-relevant events and associate them
with the
overall energy expenditure and process owners to enable application-level energy
profiling.

Localization Techniques for Mobile Ad-hoc Networks
Monte Carlo-based Localization in Mobile Sensor Networks: Based on the idea of
representing
location estimate as a probability distribution over the deployment area, we investigated
the
usage of probabilistic methods on the localization problem in mobile, error-prone
communication
networks. In special, we verified the effectiveness of particle filtering technology
applied to range-
free localization.
An RFID-based Positioning System for Mobile Ad-hoc Networks: In this research, we
proposed,
designed and built the software component for an envisioned national infrastructure in
Japan,
which aims at enabling ubiquitous safety-enhancing services by deploying RFID tags across
the
nation, developing novel positioning mechanisms, and providing key application services.

Energy Consumption Optimization in Wireless Sensor Networks
Development of an effective solution that allows for the reduction of power consumption
in sensor
nodes. Our proposal leverages radio transmission power adjustment and Quality of
Information
in a dynamic mechanism, named \Maximum Survival Algorithm". As a consequence, besides
obtaining the maximal probability of a node's survival, we can estimate how much energy
can be
saved through our technique.

Intrusion Detection for Wireless Sensor Networks
An intrusion detection system (IDS) acquires information related to attack techniques
from ma-
licious nodes inside the network and uses it to discern regular nodes from infringing
ones. We
modeled and implemented a simulator for intrusion detection in WSNs considering its
hardware
and energy restrictions, and also evaluated our model using a real testbed.

Applications for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs)
Vehicle Detection and Classification Using Wireless Sensor Networks: Development of a
frame-
work for vehicle detection using wireless sensor nodes. We proposed a distributed system
used for
discovery and categorization of automobiles. We could infer this output based on the
variance of
the Earth's magnetic field induced by the ferrous mass of moving vehicles.
