Virtual Collaboration and Distance Learning (2/2002 ~ 1/31/05) 

CGM(Computer Graphics Metafiles) version 4 library (7/2003 ~ 6/2004) 
CGM is a graphics data interchange standard which defines a neutral computer-interpretable representation of 2D graphical (pictorial) information in a manner that is independent from any particular application or system.

The focus of this project is to develop a parser, editor and viewer that utilize full feature of CGM version 4.

Voice over IP Capacity Estimation and Quality Measurement in Wireless LAN (1/2005 ~ 1/2006)
Voice over IP (VoIP) is a rapidly evolving technology that has taken the communication world by a storm. In VoIP, voice traffic is transmitted in the form of packets over the Internet. Unlike a circuit switched network, a dedicated voice circuit is not required in VoIP. A packet based network, like the Ethernet is used in VoIP.

This technology is still in the early stages of deployment in the wired telephone network and it is also being extended to include the wireless networks which are becoming popular by the day. VoIP is still very far from being deployed in commercial applications on a large scale.

Child Fatality Review (CFR) (6/2004 ~ 5/2005)
Towson University Information & Computer Sciences Department and Maryland State Chief Medical Examiner Office joined forces to develop an online uniform data collection system for the review of child fatality statistics in Maryland.

CFR Web Application:
CFR web application's main goal is to implement an online uniform data collection system for use by the CFR Teams in all counties. This online data collection system will provide CFR Teams a tool to review child fatalities in Maryland and develop strategies to prevent future child fatalities.

Objectives of CFR Web Application:
- Data to be downloaded automatically from OCME database of Maryland Chief Medical Examiner Office.
- CFR members can create vital statistics in various types of reports to determine the causes of child deaths.
- CFR members can examine data confidentially online and administer the application securely.
