Title: On Large Scale Sensor Network and Internet of Things Date: 10:00 AM ~ 11:00AM, 30, September, 2016 (CS402) Speaker: Prof. Yunhao Liu (Tsinghua University), hosted by Prof. Kyle Jamieson Abstract: Yunhao started working on IoT and Sensor Network since early 2000. In the past years, he and his team deployed the world first working sensor network system in the D. L. Coal Mine, the world second largest coal mine, one of the world earliest RFID localization systems called LANDMARC. They implemented the GreenOrbs prototype system in the campus woodland of Zhejiang Forestry University with 330 sensor nodes and each node with several sensors. The system scale reached 400 in April 2010 . Later, the Tianmu Mountain deployment includes 200 nodes and was in continuous operation since August 2009 and lasted for more than three years. The deployment area is around 200,000 square meters. From 2011 through 2016, Yunhao and his team conduct TagSys system in the Beijing International Airport and more than 100 thousand RFID tags are used. The resulted publication was awarded MobiCom 2014 Best Paper. In this talk, he is going to share the experience learned from large scale Sensor Network and IoT system deployments, and also discuss the concept Sensorless Sensing they proposed. Bio: Yunhao Liu, Cheung Kong Professor and Dean of School of Software at Tsinghua University, China. Being an ACM Fellow and an IEEE Fellow, Yunhao serves as the Chair of ACM China Council and also the Associate Editor for IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking and ACM Transactions on Sensor Network. Yunhao was the Associate Editor-in-Chief for IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems from 2011 through 2014.
