Rate My Professor Terry Koziniec

Terry Koziniec is a Lecturer in the School of Information Technology at Murdoch University, where he serves as Academic Chair for the Bachelor of Information Technology (Internetworking and Network Security). His academic background includes a BCom (Hons) from the School of Economics and Commerce at Murdoch University. Koziniec's research specializations encompass computer networks, wireless communications, wireless sensor networks, telecommunications, routing and switching, and network performance analysis. He has made contributions to understanding key aspects of network behavior, including scanning delays in 802.11 networks, the impact of large MTUs on internet performance, routing protocols in multi-hop ad hoc networks, and changes in enterprise network traffic characteristics. His work often involves experimental investigations and collaborations with researchers such as David Murray, Michael Dixon, Kevin Lee, and Sebastian Zander. Koziniec has also explored educational methodologies, examining student perceptions of flipped learning in information technology courses. Additionally, his research extends to practical applications, such as precomputed ionospheric propagation for HF wireless sensor transmission scheduling and reliability mechanisms like D-Proxy in wireless networks.

Key publications include 'An experimental comparison of routing protocols in multi hop ad hoc networks' (with D. Murray and M. Dixon, 2010), 'Student perceptions of flipped learning' (with D. Murray and T. McGill, 2015), 'The state of enterprise network traffic in 2012' (with D. Murray, 2012), 'Scanning delays in 802.11 networks' (with D. Murray and M. Dixon, 2007), 'Large MTUs and internet performance' (with D. Murray, K. Lee, and M. Dixon, 2012), 'An analysis of changing enterprise network traffic characteristics' (with D. Murray et al., 2017), 'D-Proxy: Reliability in wireless networks' (with D. Murray and M. Dixon, 2010), and 'Reliable routing scheme for indoor sensor networks' (with K. Daabaj, M. Dixon, and P. Cole, 2010). Koziniec teaches courses in data communications, scalable network design, and internetworking, utilizing tools like OPNET to enhance student learning. His contributions support advancements in network efficiency, sensor deployments for environmental monitoring such as bushfire detection, and pedagogical improvements in IT education.
