This is a short summary of the current research interests of Professor Michael Worboys of the Department of Spatial Information Science and Engineering.
Numerous visions have been suggested for protecting personal information privacy in pervasive sensing and computing environments. This presentation argues that some visions are better than others and suggests how the research community can help us arrive at better societal solutions.
This video discusses ongoing collaborative research on energy efficient wireless sensor networks by UCSD's Computer Science and Engineering department, with a substantial focus on experimentation at San Diego State University's Santa Margarita Ecological Reserve.
Water quality assessments are becoming more and more critical in Southern California and elsewhere. This video describes ongoing activities related to HPWREN-enabled real-time hydrology sensors at San Diego State University's Santa Margarita Ecological Reserve. Both permanent and mobile approaches are being discussed.
This video describes expanded collaborations between HPWREN and Native Americans in the areas of environmental sensors and high-resolution network cameras, via the Southern California Tribal Digital Village network. Additional considerations include and increased focus on green energy, by augmenting solar powered sites with wind generators.
