Hound Team

During my PhD, I had the pleasure of supervising a number of talented students and grouped our work under the name Holistic Offensive Unit for Networked Devices (HOUND). Ok, I admit it, the name is a bit of a stretch, but look at my dog in the logo! Isn’t he cool? It was not an official research group, just a way to make the students feel part of something and give them credit for their work. Everyone listed below is now an alumnus of the team, together with their project or thesis. HOUND Logo
