We are already in an era in which not only your own computers and smartphones, but also all other devices including automobiles, small sensors, etc., are connected to the network. In this major, you will learn the basic technologies to understand the digital society in which all things are connected through the Internet and wireless communication technologies, required to develop the future. This major fosters engineers who have a broad perspective on both various basic technologies in network computing and the application services provided by networks.

Research Introduction
A sensor network is a system in which a large number of installed sensors work together to collect a set of measurement data. However, because the battery capacity of each sensor node is small in general, each sensor must keep power consumption at a low level, while data must be delivered reliably even if a small portion of sensors fail. This research intelligently coordinates a large number of nodes in order to build and maintain data collection paths that are efficient and reliable in collecting data.

In the event of a disaster, it is necessary to obtain a variety of information, including information about the disaster and information necessary for evacuation. However, in the event of a large-scale disaster, cell phones and the Internet, which are used daily, may not be available due to damage to communication facilities. We are studying network technologies useful in such situations.
