Since 2002, Professor Teruo Higashino has been leading Mobile Computing Laboratory, Graduate School of Information Science and Technology, Osaka University, Japan. In our laboratory, we are studying about algorithms, software and design methodologies concerning with mobile/ubiquitous computing systems such as localization/behavior estimation of pedestrians/crowds, design and development of context aware services, ITS (inter-vehicle communication), advanced sensing systems, IT technology for disaster mitigation and green innovation, and so on. We are also studying Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) and Big-Data science for constructing future smart and connected communities using sensing information from mega-order sensors.
