Prof. Wendi Heinzelman tests app for donating excess space on cellphones

Wendi Heinzelman, Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering and our Dean of Graduate Studies, is testing a computer application, called the Green Energy Mobile Cloud, that allows volunteers to donate extra space on their Androids for research. The app was developed by He Ba, an Electrical and Computer Engineering grad student, while doing an internship for UCB Pharma. You can read more about this project, and other efforts to expand donated computer time, at this Democrat and Chronicle article.
