elderly care monitoring. He is a senior researcher at Microsoft
Research in Redmond, Washington. His work has focused on
low-power sensing architectures, indoor location technologies,
and mobile context sensing for mobile web search services.
Jie Liu (liuj@microsoft.com) received his B.S. and M.S.
degrees from the Department of Automation, Tsinghua
University, Beijing, China, and his Ph.D. degree in electrical
engineering and computer sciences, University of California,
Berkeley, in 2001. He is a principal researcher at Microsoft
Research-NExT, Redmond, Washington, and senior director of
Microsoft's Venture in Embedded Sensing Technologies and
Applications. His research interests are rooted in sensing and
interacting with the physical world through computing. He
has published broadly in areas including sensor networking,
embedded devices, mobile and ubiquitous computing, and
data-center management. He has received six best paper awards
in top academic conferences in these fields. In addition, he
holds more than 90 patents. He has been an associate editor of
IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing and has chaired a
number of top-tier conferences. He is a Senior Member of
