The NextG Faculty Spotlight Series is hosted by Princeton NextG, an initiative of Princeton’s School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. The NextG Initiative at Princeton is creating the foundation for intelligent networks of the future across wireless, backbone networking, and cloud systems. The initiative focuses on cross-disciplinary approaches, bringing theory to practice, and covering the ‘full stack’ from the underlying technological fabric in integrated electronic and photonic circuits and systems, edge networks, IOT and cloud, to foundational theory, algorithms and AI approaches that make these networks scalable, efficient, secure, and accessible.
