CEG 7470-01: Advanced Wireless Networks

This course covers advanced topics in wireless networking and mobile computing, including supporting wireless technologies, various types of wireless networks, mesh networks, mobile protocols, mobile security, emerging wireless and mobile technologies, and so on

Wireless and Pervasive Healthcare: Applications, Requirements, and Research Problems

With an increasingly mobile society and the worldwide deployment of mobile and wireless networks, the wireless infrastructure can support many current and emerging healthcare applications. In this tutorial, we present pervasive healthcare applications and requirements, and discuss how the current and emerging wireless and mobile technologies can be used to support these applications

CEG 7900-01: Emerging Networks

This is a graduate level course on emerging networking technologies. The course involves various components, including reading/lecture/presentation/discussion, paper review, and a project. It will provide an in-depth study on a number of focused areas: dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) optical networks, ELASTIC optical networks, optical burst/packet switching networks, peer-to-peer networks, Internet of Things, Cloud Networking, Enterprise Networking and wireless mobile networks (including Ad-hoc wireless networks, cognitive radio networks). Various technical and research issues involved will be studied. These areas of emerging networking technologies will play central roles in future communication networks

Demystifying Wireless Technologies: Navigating Through The Wireless Technology Maze

A significant part of the growth in consumer-to-business electronic commerce is likely to originate from the increasing numbers of mobile computing devices and smart telephone devices. Most of the data from mobile computers will be carried over by emerging wireless networks. Many wireless technologies and standards are now available. As a result, it is becoming increasingly difficult for non-domain experts like managers, to sort through the maze of wireless technologies and standards to make business decisions involving these technologies. This article surveys existing and emerging wireless technologies and uses the Open System Interconnect (OSI) framework to organize the wireless landscape. The survey provides a quick reference to the entire spectrum of wireless technologies in use today
