Paul Havinga is at the Computer Science department of the University of Twente. He participates in the Embedded Systems group of the Department of Computer Science.

Paul Havinga received his BS degree in computer engineering in 1985. Since 1985 he has been working at the Computer Science Department of the University of Twente, the Netherlands. His research has been on parallel processing, ATM switching, and mobile computing and wireless communication. He has been a visiting researcher at the University of Pisa in 1998, and the Communications Research Laboratory in Yokosuka, Japan in 2000. He received his Ph.D. on mobile multimedia systems in 2000, and was awarded with the ‘DOW Dissertation Energy Award’ for this work.

His research interests are in the area of

  • energy-efficient architectures and protocols,
  • wireless communication networks,
  • personal communication systems,
  • wireless sensor networks,
  • multimedia communication and
  • reconfigurable systems.

Since 1996 he participates in the Moby Dick project, which investigates new hardware and software architectures for battery-powered hand-held computers.

Currently, he is project leader of the European project Eyes that deals with Energy Efficient Sensor Networks (http://eyes.eu.org/).

Current work also includes reconfigurable computing architectures, Mobile IP architectures, Seamless Services, and Quality of Service modelling and management. He has been involved in a number of research projects sponsored by the industry, the EC, and the Dutch government (like Pegasus, Moby Dick, Chameleon, Gecko).
