Mobile P2P networks with applications to vehicles and health-nets

Mario Gerla, UCLA ( USA )

Abstract

 

Peer-to-peer (P2P) systems have met enormous success in the Internet because of the many advantages they offer with respect to traditional client/server systems, namely: scalability, dependability and robustness. These advantages are achieved through decentralized organization. P2P systems are now emerging also in wireless, mobile ad hoc networks – for example: content distribution, file sharing, auctioning, distributed games and urban environment sensing. Due to the nature of peer interactions, mobile P2P systems require fundamentally new protocol designs with respect to not only Internet P2P models but also conventional MANET scenarios. Popular MANET routing schemes are not suited. New application level routing schemes such as “gossiping” and “epidemic dissemination” and new concepts inspired by “ social networking ” must be explored.

In this tutorial we define the basic principles of mobile P2P networking and illustrate them in representative applications drawn from vehicle and remote health monitoring scenarios.

 

Biography

 

Dr. Mario Gerla, Professor, UCLA, Computer Science Dept. Dr Gerla is one of the Pioneers of the ARPANET, with over 35 year of experience in Computer and Communications Networks. Dr. Gerla received his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from UCLA in 1970 and 1973. He became IEEE Fellow in 2002. At UCLA, he was part of a small team that developed the early ARPANET protocols under the guidance of Prof. Leonard Kleinrock. He worked at Network Analysis Corporation, New York , from 1973 to 1976, transferring the ARPANET technology to several Government and Commercial Networks. He joined the Faculty of the Computer Science Department at UCLA in 1976, where he is now Professor. At UCLA he has designed and implemented some of the most popular and cited network protocols for ad hoc wireless networks including distributed clustering, multicast (ODMRP and CODE Cast) and transport (TCPW) under DARPA and NSF grants. He has lead the $12M, 6 year ONR MINUTEMAN project, designing the next generation scalable airborne Internet for tactical and homeland defense scenarios. He is now leading two advanced wireless network projects under ARMY and IBM funding. In the vehicular network scenario, with NSF and Industry sponsorship, he has led the development of peer to peer applications for safe navigation, urban sensing and location aware applications (see www.cs.ucla.edu/NRL for recent publications).

The Wi-xx family versus 4G generation

Guy Pujolle, Université Pierre et Marie Curie (France)

Abstract

 

WiMedia , Wi -Fi, WiMAX, WiRAN, the Wi-family is getting bigger; so does the network architecture. It is encouraging to see the fast development of the new IEEE wireless technologies promising the ultimate Internet service deployment on wireless and mobile infrastructures since they would offer larger bandwidth at cheaper price compared to the telecommunication wireless radio resource.

On another hand the 4G systems (LTE, UMB) will be able to provide a comprehensive IP solution where voice, data and streamed multimedia can be given to users on an "Anytime, Anywhere" basis, and at higher data rates than previous generations.

After a survey of Wi-xx family skill and 4G technologies, we will present a comparison and some advices on the key challenges in planning a deployment of these new generations.
