Evaluation and Development of Multimedia Networks in Dynamic Stress (EDMUNDS)
Abstract
Existing network protocols cannot satisfy the requirements of future command, control, and communications (C3I) applications over dynamic, stressed networks with multiple transmission media (multimedia). EDMUNDS is a project directed by Rome Laboratory (RL) under the Advanced Research Projects Agency's (ARPA's) Secure Tactical Internet (STI) Program, which is aimed at advancing the state of survivable network protocols in order to provide the foundation required for these future tactical networks. First, descriptions of the EDMUNDS development environments are presented in Sections 2 through 5; we then describe the STI protocols developed under EDMUNDS, in Section 6; the benchmark protocols used in analyzing the STI protocols are described in Sections 7 and 8; and our emulator development efforts are described in Section 9. Finally, we present concluding remarks in Section 10. The appendices to this report are as follows: 'The Network Environment Profile, ' (Appendix A); 'How to Execute a NAPI + simulation,' (Appendix B); 'How to Analyze a NAPI + Simulation,' (Appendix C); 'How to Implement a Protocol in NAPI +,' (Appendix D) a report on the Secure Tactical Internet Protocol (STIP)3 (Appendix E); and finally, three papers published under the EDMUNDS project (Appendix F).
