Computing Systems
Department of Computer Science Research area

The study, design and development of modern computing systems.

Internet has catalysed modern computing to evolve towards distributed architectures rapidly, creating novel technology paradigms like cloud computing and IoT. Computing Systems conducts interdisciplinary research into the infrastructure and systems that support such novel technology paradigms. The research ranges from theoretical, such as distributed systems, distributed system architectures and distributed algorithms to applied such as IoT, Web Services, Analytics, Ubiquitous Computing, Systems for Machine Learning and Distributed Multimedia systems. These research areas are intersectional in their design, underlying infrastructure and service delivery constraints. Focus areas include IoT management, networking and applications, vehicular networks, edge computing, web service design and analytics, system analytics, video delivery optimization and low latency distributed multimedia systems including cloud/edge rendered XR. The research uses empirical methodologies to leverage human factors like human visual system and human computer interaction in system design, specifically in cloud rendered XR and ubiquitous computing.
