Biography

Scott Pudlewski is a PhD student in the Department of Electrical Engineering at the University at Buffalo, The State University of New York (SUNY). He is currently working in the Wireless Networks and Embedded Systems Laboratory under Professor Tommaso Melodia.
Scott received his B.S. in Electrical Engineering from the Rochester Institute of Technology, Rochester, NY in 2008,and his M.S. in Electrical Engineering from the University at Buffalo, The State University of New York (SUNY), Buffalo, NY in 2010. His main research interests are in compressed sensing for video encoding and transmission, cooperative communications in wireless multimedia sensor networks using compressed sensing,video distortion based networking, and in wireless multimedia sensor networks in general. He is the recipient of the the SAP America Scholarship in 2008.
On April 20th 2012, Scott Pudlewski successfully defended his Ph.D. thesis titled "Compressed-sensing-based Video Streaming in Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks."
