Bio

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher in HIIT/University of Helsinki. My research focus is Sensor and Data-driven System and Resource optimization. I am exploring the efficiency of smartphone energy sources, applications in mobile and distributed computing platforms such as Spark. I am also investigating new charging, SoC estimation algorithms, and battery design for prolonged battery life (Lithium). I completed my Master's Degree from Aalto University in Mobile Computing in 2010. From the same University, I received my Ph.D in Energy Efficient mobile multimedia communication in 2013.
