| Networking Research Lab (NRL) is led by Injong Rhee along with a number of graduate students and research scientists. We study network protocols that enhance the well-being of computer networks, particularly, what we call today the Internet. In the evolution of the Internet, we have observed the birth and demise of many different types of computer networks, including ATM, Ethernet, optical networks, wireless networks, sensor networks and delay (or disruption) tolerant networks. With the evolution of new network technologies, network protocols must also adapt to and evolve with the new technologies. The mission of NRL is to enable this evolution of network protocols. We build protocols that are fast, scalable, adaptable, realizable and deployable. In the midst of these efforts, we discover fundamental properties of computer networks involving humans as the major enablers, which makes the research work all the more interesting. Our approaches are fundamental, but at the same time highly practical; we pursue lasting work that can help network users of today as well as of future. |

New Human Movement Model Can Aid In Studying Epidemic Outbreaks, Public Planning
Dr. Injong Rhee, associate professor of computer science, is developing a new statistical model that simulates human mobility patterns, having a host of potential uses ranging from land use planning to public health studies of disease outbreak.
