Connected sensing, resilient networks and applied AI — from underwater acoustic channels to the microclimates of heritage buildings.
I graduated with a Bachelor of Engineering (Computer) from UTM in 2000 and began my career here as a tutor. A JPA scholarship took me to Heriot-Watt University for an MSc in Embedded Systems Engineering, continuing directly into a PhD in Electrical Engineering, awarded in 2007.
I coordinate the PhD in Computer Science programme at the Faculty of Computing. Previously Head of the Pervasive Computing Research Group, Faculty Research Manager (2022–2025), and Deputy Director of UTMDigital. In 2012 I was a visiting researcher at Eindhoven University of Technology.
Protocols, routing and topology control for networks that must hold together with scarce energy, unstable links and no maintenance window. The thread that runs through every other area on this page.
Advisory and applied work with industry partners on sensing deployments, network resilience and data-driven monitoring.
