Open Trainee Position: Building up large-scale simulation platforms for machine-to-machine networks
As ever-increasing M2M applications and services are deployed around every corner of the world, the number of communications-enabled wirelessly connected devices will run into tens of billions. However, with the huge number of participants, scalability stands out to be a salient problem for M2M networks to deal with. On the other hand, deployment of such large-scale M2M networks is not only time-consuming, but also cost-consuming. Simulations come into use in such scenarios because of its relative simplicity, cost-saving, etc, characteristics. In this task, we utilize computer simulations to conduct scalability research for M2M networks; network emulators such as Emulab will … Read more
