Brief Description of Research：
In recent years, there is a rapid growth in the internet of things and intelligent devices due to the substantial
increase in the amount of information. As a result, the intelligent networking technology with edge computing
can provide more reliable and fast transmission capability. The future research direction of this research group
is as follows: Internet of things and applications, big data analysis, fog computing and edge computing, mobile
computing, wireless networks, and UAV networking.
