Web technology
Study effective methods and techniques for Web caching, scalable Web
server design, proxy/cach placement and replacement. Recent focuses
include development of optimal methods for en-route Web caching in
tree networks and multimedia objects placement for transparent data
replication.
Optical Comptuing
Study efficient architectures and algorithms for optical computing.
Recent focuses include fault-tolerant routing in optical WDM networks
and efficient realization of parallel computations in optical
architectures.
Network Topology Discovery and Performance Evaluation
Study effective methods and techniques for network traffic analysis
and performance evaluation. Recent focuses include topology discovery
and performance analysis in multicast networks and wireless networks.
Mobile agents in e-applications
Study new methods and techniques for analyzing statistical behaviors
of mobile agents, monitoring agent's performance and controlling
agent's activities, to improve the performance of agent-deployed
e-applications.
Parallel Algorithms
Study efficient parallel algorithms for problems ranging from
combinatorial and graph-theoretic to data-intensive applications.
Recent was done for combinatorial problems on partially ordered data
sets and critical sections in networks.
Interconnection Networks
Study interconnection network topologies of high performance in terms
of hardware (wiring), software (routing) and maintenance (scalability)
costs, and techniques for efficient switching among network elements.
Recent work was done in design and analysis of high performance
multi-stage interconnections.
Parallel Databases Query Evaluation and Data Mining
Study efficient techniques and methods for efficient databases query
evaluation and data mining in parallel and distributed environments,
with the focuses on multple join operations and discovery of
association patterns in large databases.
Routing
Study efficient methods and techniques for routing in high-speed
networks and time-embedded systems with the focus on group
communication including multicast in multiple multicast.
Data hiding, multimedia coding and transmission
Study effective methods and techniques for embedding high-capacity
data imperceptiblly in a host media (audio, image and video etc) in a
robust and secure manner, for error-resilient coding and transmission
of multimedia applications in noisy and time-varying network
environments.
Network security and privacy-preserving computation
Study effective models, methods and techniques for anomaly-based
intrusion detection in hosts and networks with provision of
adaptability, scalability, and dependability; for privacy-preserving
computation in vavious applications.
Wireless Communication and Networking
Study efficient methods and techniques for wireless communication and
networking. Recent focuses include: Design orthogonal and
quasi-orthogonal space-time block codes with high rates and low
delays; Develop efficient, robust and secure routing protocols for
MANET.
