Biography
Jonathan Hui's primary focus is in building the Internet of Everything, by extending the Internet to include low-power embedded networks. As part of his PhD dissertation, Jonathan designed, implemented, and evaluated, the world's first complete IPv6/6LoWPAN stack for low-power wireless networks. At the same time, Jonathan also helped start Arch Rock Corporation, where he led the development of the world's first commercial IPv6/6LoWPAN product. Jonathan also participates in the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and IP for Smart Objects (IPSO) Alliance to standardize and promote the use of IP in resource-constrained networks. Jonathan received his PhD in Computer Science at UC Berkeley, where he was advised by David Culler. Learn more about Jonathan's recent work here.
