He has been the leader of the TRON project since 1984. In this capacity, he has designed the TRON open computer system architecture, which has been used in many consumer electronics appliances including mobile phones (esp. its radio control), digital cameras, FAX machines, engine control of automobiles, etc. The latest TRON specification OS is called T-Kernel. Today, the IoT (Internet of Things) or Ubiquitous Computing is a major research and development target, and basic research and application developments and leading-edge prototype systems are being built (http://www.t-engine.org/). He has held the position of the director/CEO of YRP Ubiquitous Networking Laboratory since January 2002. He has been elected as fellow and golden core member of the IEEE Computer Society. He was awarded Takeda Award in 2001, Ichimura Academic Award from the new technology development foundation in 2001, the Medal with Purple Ribbon from Japanese government in 2003, and Okawa Prize in 2004, Prime Minister Award in 2005 and Japan Academy Prize in 2006.
