Systems

Researchers in this area investigate computer and network systems:

• Design, develop, and prototype systems and networks with scalability, efficiency, reliability, privacy and security in mind.
• Evaluate their performance and effectiveness through experiments, measurements and analysis.
• Develop cutting-edge next-generation algorithms, architectures, and protocols for distributed systems and networks, including Internet of Things (IoT), cloud systems, pervasive and mobile systems, wireless and sensor networks.
