John Heidemann

John Heidemann is an engineer at the USC Information Sciences Institute in Marina del Rey, California. He was named a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) in 2014[1] for his contributions to sensor networks, internet measurement, and simulations.

John Heidemann was very active in the field of sensor networks in the 2000s. With Nirupama Bulusu and Deborah Estrin, he developed the first wireless, range-free localization system for wireless sensor networks. [2] With Wei Ye and Deborah Estrin he developed S-MAC, an early energy-conserving media access protocol for wireless networks. In the 2010s his work examined Internet measurement, including the first complete IPv4 census (scan) in 2006, techniques to detect network outages in the Internet, and evaluation of anycast stability and under denial-of-service attack.
