Networking research at UNC is centered on how to provide better or more efficient communication services by making sure that the components of distributed computers and networks all work together seamlessly. Specifically, the research focus of Drs. Jeffay, and Aikat is on network management software, software for routers and experimental methods for networking research. Dr. Kaur concentrates on the communications software found in PCs as well as large systems and Dr. Mayer-Patel’s research is directed at different ways to make the media used in applications richer. Dr. Nirjon works on low-power networks and radio frequency (RF) sensing techniques.
