Resilience in Wireless Networks
Deployment of infrastructure and mobile ad-hoc wireless networks in both urban and remote settings is of great importance to the success of tactical missions. It is imperative to take into account security, robustness, and performance, as well as the trade-off relationships between them. The effect of an attack at a specific layer can spread to other layers. This work, in collaboration with many others, aims to provide an architecture that can adapt to the services desired, with the right trade-off between performance, security, and fault tolerance, providing resilience to both attacks and environmental factors, and taking into consideration the interactions and dependencies of different layers.
