SUMMARY:Supporting Drone-based Autonomous System with Mobile-and-Edge\, Software-and-Hardware Co-Design
DESCRIPTION:Mode: Online via Zoom\nZoom Link: https://hku.zoom.us/j/93338747328\nMeeting ID: 933 3874 7328 \n \nAbstract\nDrones are among the most disruptive innovations in the past few years\, spawning many novel applications including aerial imaging\, instant delivery\, sky networking\, and industrial inspection. Building system supports for drone-based autonomous applications is critical to simultaneously enhance accuracy\, efficiency\, and minimize resource overhead. In this talk\, I will present my recent research focused on developing such system supports\, guided by a research motto “working codes on flying drones trump all hypes.” First\, I will discuss how to create “working codes suitable for flying drones”\, using GPS-denied localization as a case study to demonstrate improved system performance through algorithmic innovation. Second\, I will explore enabling “flying drones to effectively run working codes” by leveraging edge-based computational platforms\, illustrated through a collaborative drone system for industrial inspection. Third\, I will move beyond isolated algorithm design and computational platform optimizations\, discussing advancements achieved through software-hardware co-design. Finally\, I will outline future research directions aimed at advancing system performance and facilitating system deployment\, including (1) data reuse among drone control-computing-communication modules\, and (2) resource virtualization across mobile-edge-cloud infrastructures. \nSpeaker\nDr. Jingao XU\nPostdoctoral Research Associate\nCarnegie Mellon University \nBiography of the Speaker\nDr. Jingao Xu is a postdoctoral research associate at Carnegie Mellon University\, working with Prof. Mahadev Satyanarayanan. He completed his Ph.D. in Tsinghua University advised by Prof. Yunhao Liu and Prof. Zheng Yang. His research focuses on edge computing\, drone-based mobile computing and visual SLAM. He has published over 40 works in top-tier conferences and journals including NSDI\, MobiCom\, MobiSys\, Sensys\, ToN\, and TMC. He received the Honored Doctoral Dissertation Award from ACM SIGCOMM China 2022\, the Best Artifact Award at ACM MobiCom 2024. \nOrganiser\nProf. Kaibin HUANG\nProfessor & Head of Department\,\nDepartment of Electrical and Electronic Engineering\,\nThe University of Hong Kong \nAll are welcome!
