Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden

Professor Nahrstedt is one of today's leading researchers in computer science; in particular, in the end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) management for multimedia systems. Her work on QoS brokers, QoS routing, control theory modelling in multimedia, real-time security in mobile systems, and view-based protocols have had a major impact on the field. In Germany, she plans to investigate mobility patterns and social trust in German universities to derive efficient protocols for mobile learning communities.
