Dynamic Virtual LANs for Adaptive Network Security

Abstract

The development of Network-Enabled capabilities in support of undersea research requires architectures for the interconnection and data sharing that are flexible, scalable, and built on open standards. This is essential to ensure transparent interoperability between shore laboratories (both NATO and national) and assets located at sea (research vessels, buoys, autonomous vehicles, sensors and acquisition systems). Also, a wide range of communications media needs to be supported (e.g. SATCOM, wireless at-hoc networks, acoustical undersea communications).The efforts in the development of Network-Enabled concepts are specifically oriented towards the definition of new generations of scientific instruments. The network will be used to improve the transmission of data from sensors to processors, increasing the capabilities of individual instruments. The resulting increase in efficiency will be larger than the sum of the individual instruments efficiencies.
