Title : Design of Energy Efficient Communication Protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks Organization : Department of Computer Science, IIT Kharagpur Description : Designed a protocol Assisted-Leach on top of LEACH. Published the algorithm at ICTTA 2013, Copenhagen, Denmark
Title : TWIST Actu - A RESTful Testbed Platform for Remote Experimentation with Home Automation Sensors and Actuators Organization : Telecommunication Networks Group, TU Berlin, Germany. It has been partially supported by EIT ICT Labs, as part of the activity 12149, “From WSN Testbeds to CPS Testbeds” Description : The TWIST Actu platform is aimed at extending the capabilities of the TWIST testbed at TU Berlin with support for remote experiments involving building automation sensors and actuators, as part of a wider effort to migrate the testbed from a pure sensor network testbed to one that can also effectively host more challenging cyber-physical system experimental scenarios. We made RESTful remote experimentation API that supports a “Testbed as a Service” model of use of the testbed resources.
