Hoai Phuong Ha

Professor Hoai Phuong Ha is affiliated with UiT The Arctic University of Norway's Department of Computer Science. A leading expert in green computing and cyber-physical systems, they contribute to Arctic research through the Distributed Arctic Observatory (DAO) and Arctic Green Computing (AGC) group.

• Founded ARC (Arctic Center for Sustainable Energy)
• PI in EU FP7 EXCESS and H2020 TAILOR projects
• WP-leader in EEA POLNOR HAPADS and RCN PREAPP projects

Their research focuses on energy-efficient computing, including IoT systems, edge computing, and parallel algorithms. Recent work addresses wireless charging trajectories (eU2U, 2025), smart grid networks (GridWatch, 2024), and pollution monitoring (2024). Publications span cyber-physical observatories, sensor calibration, and distributed systems optimization.

Key trends in their 15 most recent articles (2017-2025) include: energy-aware data structures, Arctic-adapted IoT deployments, and sustainable computing methods. Collaborations span EU and Norwegian grants with applications in smart grids, environmental sensing, and high-performance computing.

• Co-founder of Arctic Center for Sustainable Energy (2017)
• Active in EEA POLNOR (2019-2023) and RCN eX3 infrastructure project

Their lab (Realfagbygget A237) develops systems for Arctic tundra monitoring, including UAV-powered networks and energy-harvesting protocols. Students include researchers from multiple international collaborations.
