Huilong Huang


I am a PhD student at the Department of Computer Science, University of Arizona. My advisor is Dr. John Hartman. My interested research areas include computer networking, wireless mobile ad hoc networks, sensor networks, routing algorithms and protocols, distributed systems, database systems. I also work for Dr. Richard Snodgrass on his database projects.

Current Projects

&tau BerkeleyDB

Berkeley DB is a widely used embedded DBMS. &tau BerkeleyDB project adds transaction time support to Berkeley DB so that every record in the database keeps its history of changes. This project is supported by NSF and led by Prof. Richard T. Snodgrass. I am in charge of the transaction time stamping and recovery module in this project.

Hierarchical Routing for Wireless Mobile Ad hoc Networks

The research is under the advise of Prof. John Hartman. I designed and implemented an efficient, scalable routing protocol for wireless mobile ad hoc networks. The new protocol greatly reduces the routing overhead and is much more scalable than existing protocols.


Past Projects

Efficient Data Centric Routing for Wireless Sensor Networks

The project is supported by HP and led by Prof. John Hartman. I designed routing algorithms for efficient data centric routing and robust query processing in wireless sensor networks.

Route Optimization for On Demand Routing Protocols in Mobile Ad hoc Networks

The project is under the advise of Prof. Stephen Pink. I designed path compression algorithms for on-demand ad hoc routing protocols and verified their effectiveness through simulation.

Automatic Header Analysis for Generic Protocol Header Compression

The project is under the advise of Prof. Stephen Pink. I designed and implemented a header analyzer for automatic analysis of unknown protocol headers for effective protocol header compression.

Eventually Reliable Message Transmission Protocol for Radio Communication

The project is under the advise of Prof. Stephen Pink. I designed and implemented a protocol for reliable message transmission over low-bandwidth radio channels with minimum communication overhead.
