integrated Wireless Information Network (iWIN) Laboratory

I direct the integrated Wireless Information Network (iWIN) Laboratory. Sponsored in part by multiple NSF MRI and state equipment grants, the iWIN lab houses an array of state-of-the-art networking and computing equipment. I work with a group of graduate and undergraduate students. Our research has been funded by NSF, DoE, NSA, DoD, ONR, ARO, the State of Louisiana, and the Commonwealth of Virginia.
