- Project Title:
Complex Adaptive Networks for Computing and Communication (CANCCOM)
- Short Project Description:
The growing complexity of high-speed networks makes
the incorporation of advanced mathematical methodologies important for achieving
efficient designs. Future high-speed networks require: i) topologies optimized
with respect to costs, ii) compatible and secure communication protocols
and iii) fault tolerance. In order to achieve the required performance characteristics,
networks must be learning, adaptive and require major conceptual and technological
advances over the current generation. The following issues need to be addressed:
robustness, reliability, scalability, security and ease of use, management
and operation.
This project is part of the Communication and Information Networks Research
Consortium and the Information
Technology research projects of MITACS. It brings together a team
of computer scientists, computer and systems engineers, statisticians, mathematicians and
industrial partners to drive a joint research effort to develop innovative
approaches to problems of next generation networks. The research areas of
this project are network design, network computing: algorithms and protocols
and network security.
