Ad-hoc
networking has been recognized as an important research area,
and there are basically two types of technological developments that
have enabled ad-hoc ne
tworks: first, end-user devices, like PDAs, are small and light enough
to carry them around and use them whenever and wherever it suits, and
second, wireless ne
twork interfaces are available (and affordable) for these types of
devices. While most research on ad-hoc networks so far has aimed at
routing mechanisms and service location, this project focuses on:
content management, including automatic ad-hoc integration of
multimedia content from different sources, seamless integration of
content distribution infrastructures with ad-hoc networks,
efficient and fault-tolerance management and control mechanisms, and
protection of resources and data with appropriate security mechanisms.
It is the goal of this project, to develop a set of services for
information access and sharing in ad-hoc networks. These services are
located on top of the (ad-hoc) network
layer and below the applications and are therefore regarded as
middleware services. These middleware services shall basically provide
information and network integration.
The project is funded by the Research Council of Norway and the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences at the University of Oslo.
