A Mobile Testbed for the Development, Validation, and Deployment of Networking Protocols

Abstract

The goal of this project is to develop, from the ground up, a mobile testbed for real world mobile testing for communications, control and distributed computing. We worked on Pharos, a testbed that enabled us to understand mobility patterns in ad hoc networks, delay tolerant networks, autonomous agents and decentralized control systems. This DURIP was highly successful in instrumenting research in these and related domains such as robotics and computer vision at the University of Texas, Austin and collaborative institutions.
