The BITS Networked Systems Laboratory was established in 2009 at the University of Illinois at Chicago to facilitate research in Networked Systems. Our work currently focuses on two main areas (a) networks of cooperating strangers, and (b) cell-phone based transit network navigation. Most of our work is intensely applied, and one of our explicit goals is to be significant contributors to existing open-source projects in our areas of study.
