CISE Research Infrastructure: CISE Pervasive Computing: Applications and Systems

普林斯顿大学CISE研究基础设施：CISE普适计算：应用与系统我们正在进入一个计算的新时代，普适计算的时代。在这个世界上，我们的教室、实验室、办公室和家庭将充满各种各样的传感器、显示器和计算设备。无处不在的显示器将彻底改变我们使用计算机的方式。在这样的环境中，将网络视为在客户机和服务器之间提供位管道的传统观点将不再合适。环境中可用的许多设备将具有有限的计算能力，并通过有限容量的网络连接。因此，我们需要一个智能网络，它将由覆盖物理网络基板的服务器和可编程路由器的集合来实现。该奖项旨在建立一个由三个部分组成的研究基础设施。在系统的“边缘”，将是各种显示技术和传感器。该系统的“核心”将是一个使用商用pc机和新兴网络处理器的智能网络。一切的基础将是商品有线和无线网络，以提供智能网络中边缘设备和节点之间的连接。该网络将增强CS部门目前的网络，该网络已经包括有线和无线组件。

EIA-0101247David P. DobkinPrinceton UniversityCISE Research Infrastructure: CISE Pervasive Computing: Applications and SystemsWe are entering a new era in computing, the era of ubiquitous computing. In this world, our classrooms, labs, offices, and homes will be filled with a diverse collection of sensor, display and computing devices. Ubiquitous and pervasive displays will revolutionize the way we use computers.In such an environment, the conventional view of the network as providing bit-pipes between clients and servers will no longer be appropriate. Many of the devices available in the environment will have limited computational capabilities and be connected by limited-capacity networks. So, we need an intelligent network that will be implemented by a collection of servers and programmable routers that overlay the physical network substrate.The award is to build a research infrastructure consisting of three components. At the "edge" of the system, will be a variety of display technologies and sensors. At the "core'' of the system, will be an intelligent network using commodity PCs and emerging network processors. Underlying everything will be commodity wired and wirelessnetworks to provide connectivity among the edge devices and nodes in the intelligent network. This network will augment the CS Department's current network, which already includes both wired and wireless components.
