SHORT BIOGRAPHY Dr. Ziguo Zhong is an Assistant Professor with the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln. He received his Ph.D. degree in Computer Science (under the guidance of Dr. Tian He) from the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities in 2010. He worked with Dr. Bodhi Priyantha and Dr. Jie Liu at Microsoft Research - Redmond from 2010 to 2011. Before coming to the U.S., Ziguo obtained B.E. and M.E. degrees in Radio Engineering (with highest distinction and exempted from both college and graduate admission exams) from Southeast University (Chien-Shiung Wu Honors College), Nanjing, China, in 2003 and 2006, respectively. Ziguo is currently a member of the ACM and the IEEE Computer Society.
RESEARCH INTERESTS I enjoy building embedded systems and have a strong passion for computer systems, wireless networking, mobile and energy-aware computing, event-driven OS, radio technology, digital signal processing and robotics that enable new commercial applications and explore potential research directions. Currently, my research theme is Networked Embedded Computing Systems (NECS) including but not limited to the following topics
– Cyber-physical Systems, Wireless Sensor Networks, and Mobile Computing.
– Low-cost Localization and Tracking Systems, Network Time Synchronization.
– Resource-constrained and Energy-aware Computing, Event-driven Real-time OS, and Embedded Security.
