Abstract:

To be posted.

Jason Hill was a core member of UC Berkeley's TinyOS research platform.As a developer of the TinyOS operating system and the architect of the Mica node, he provided a robust platform for the exploration of wireless sensor networks. His research was funded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's (DARPA) Network Embedded Software Technology (NEST) project and supported by Intel Research. Jason's cubic-inch scale mote designs have been programmed and deployed by hundreds of research organizations. Motes designed by Jason have been proven in application scenarios that include building safety, habitat monitoring and asset tracking systems. At Berkeley, Jason demonstrated a fully integrated millimeter-sized wireless network node measuring just 2.5 mm per side. He was a Research Fellow for Robert Bosch Corporation, Researcher for Intel Research and worked in development teams at both Microsoft and Oracle. Jason holds a PhD, MS and BS in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from UC Berkeley. A copy of his PhD theses can be found at http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~jhill/jhill_thesis.pdf
