Research Interests: networked information systems, wireless and sensor data management, query optimization in resource-constrained distributed environments, scalable architectures for wide-area environments with heterogeneous information servers.

I am a head of the Network Aware Data Management Group and a member of the Advanced Data Management Technologies Laboratory at the University of Pittsburgh.

Highlights:

I am a general chair of the International ACM Workshop on Data Engineering for Wireless and Mobile Access (MobiDE’08) (in conjunction with the ACM SIGMOD/PODS Conference, Vancouver, 2008)

I am a chair of the International Workshop on Sensor Network Technologies for Information Explosion Era (SeNTIE2008) (in conjunction with the MDM Conference, Beijing, 2008)

I am a chair of the International Workshop on Data Intensive Sensor Networks (DISN07).

Tutorial on Network-Aware Wireless Sensor Data Management was presented at 7th International Conference on Mobile Data Management (MDM06), Nara, Japan 

Panel on Data Intensive Mobile Sensornets: Killer Applications and Grand Deterrents was organized at 7th International Conference on Mobile Data Management (MDM06), Nara, Japan  Here are the panel description and panel summary

We started working on a book on Network-Aware Wireless Sensor Data Management to be published by Springer (tentative completion date: March, 2008).
