Our Research Lab is a part of the Computer
Science Department, Faculty of Automation and Computer Science,
from Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania. http://cs.utcluj.ro/
Our main research areas are in the fields
of:
- Computer and communication networks
- Wireless Sensor Networks and IoT
- Communication protocols
- Software-defined networks (SDN) and Network function virtualization (NFV)
- Applications to different domains: data acquisition, VANETs, smart grids, environmental monitoring, etc.
- Software products: wireless and sensors communications,
adaptive routing, secure communications
Our research facilities are:
- Research lab
- Data Center Room: HVAC system and hosts site grid with
512 core and 12 Terrabytes storage
- Hardware and software: 9 routers (Cisco 1721,2501), 6
switches (Cisco 2950, 2960), HTC mobile gear, wireless routers
and access points, kit with Crossbow sensor motes, PIX 515E-DMZ
Bundle (Chas, Restricted SW, 64MB, 3 FE), 7 switches (Catalyst
2960 24 10/100 + 2 1000BT LAN Base Image), routers (3 Cisco
2600 si 6 2801); Virtual infrastructure (VMs); AirCheck G2 analyzer,
Libelium gateway and nodes, different IoT components
Our strategically development directions are:
