Nicholas Race

Profile

Dr Nick Race Nicholas graduated from Lancaster University in 1996 with a degree in Computer Science. Following this, he joined the Distributed Multimedia Research Group as a research student. During his time with the group, he has worked on a number of European projects, including CoBrow, Eurescom P702 and PeterPan (Provision of an Enhanced Transport by Exploiting Reservation in IP and ATM Networks). The Eurescom P702 and PeterPan projects both examined various issues concerning the integration of IP and ATM technologies, with particular focus on the use of IPv6.

He was awarded his PhD in November 2000, which investigated how multimedia caching techniques could be used to support the delivery of continuous media. He is now employed as a research lecturer, teaching CSc 211/212 (Computer Networks) and working on the MISRL (Mobile IPv6 Systems Research Lab) project.
