My research is driven by the interplay between physical mobility and networked systems. I am curious to advance wireless networked systems such as human opportunistic networks and drone networks by leveraging knowledge about physical mobility, and - the other way round - to get new insights about physical mobility by analyzing network data. This research involves data-driven mobility modeling, network performance analysis, delay modeling in human-drone teams, and the development of anticipatory wireless networking techologies. Such networked systems are aware of physical mobility and make to some extent use of mobility forecasts to self-optimize leading to, for example, less energy consumption or experienced good service quality despite weak network performance.
