   Congratulations on Fei Xing being the Dissertation Award recipient of 2009 Nancy G. Pollock Award.   Sponsored by the NC State University Graduate School, the Nancy G. Pollock Thesis and Dissertation Award program is designed to reward outstanding scholarly research and to demonstrate the positive impact of graduate-level research on both the economy of North Carolina and the quality of life for all its citizens. The Dissertation Award carries a $1000 stipend. Details can be found at ECE NEWS.   Great job, Fei!



The Networking of Wireless Information Systems (NetWIS) laboratory led by Dr. Wenye Wang,  is focused broadly on in-depth understanding, algorithm and protocol design in mobile wireless networks. Our vision is that by developing new models, measuring experimental results, and understanding basic properties of wireless networks in different circumstances, it is possible to design algorithms, protocols, and architectures that enable a wireless network to have robust architecture, better performance, and more flexibility. With underlying network architecture, applications beyond communications and networking can be developed for large-scale distributed, intelligent systems.

Our lab members include undergraduate students who gain their experience in research and prepare for their graduate study, and graduate students who aim to make novel contributions to wireless networking area. Currently, we are focused on the issues like mobility modeling and characterization, network reliability and resilience in the presence of failures and abnormality, performance analysis, and design of algorithms and protocols in order to optimize networking performance.
