CSR-DMSS, SM: DoC - Distributed Opportunistic Computing (0834493)The objective of this project is to carry out preliminary, fundamental research work in the area of opportunistic computing. When pairs of devices come within each others? communication range, opportunistically, short-lived links (or opportunistic links) are created. Opportunistic computing exploits the opportunistic links created by pair-wise contacts, to share information content, resources and services, leading to a wide variety of applications. Groups of computing nodes and their associated pair-wise contacts in an opportunistic network give rise to a distributed opportunistic computing system. Essentially, opportunistic computing can be described as distributed computing with the caveats of intermittent connectivity and delay tolerance.The novelty of the proposed work lies in the exploitation of opportunistic communication contacts to provide collaborative computing services to applications and users. The unique contributions of this project include the development of an adaptive protocol for opportunistic communication in support of computing, a middleware architecture for masking the disruptive nature of the underlying network from applications and users, and a mechanism for delay tolerant, remote execution of tasks. The research will lead to tangible contributions to the improvement in human quality of life and make significant impact on Internet based applications, computer science and engineering. The project outcomes have relevance to applications in crisis management situations, entertainment, transportation, education and military. In general, the outcomes of this project have broad applicability in such areas as entertainment, health care, transportation and automobiles, military and education. Research findings will be incorporated into graduate and undergraduate courses.

CSR-DMSS，SM：DoC - 分布式机会计算（0834493）该项目的目标是在机会计算领域开展初步的基础研究工作。当成对的设备相互接触时？在通信范围内，机会性地创建了短期链路（或机会性链路）。机会计算利用成对接触创建的机会链接来共享信息内容、资源和服务，从而产生各种各样的应用。机会网络中的计算节点组及其相关的成对接触产生了分布式机会计算系统。本质上，机会计算可以被描述为分布式计算，但需要注意间歇性连接和延迟容忍。所提出的工作的新颖性在于利用机会通信联系来为应用程序和用户提供协作计算服务。该项目的独特贡献包括开发用于支持计算的机会通信的自适应协议、用于屏蔽应用程序和用户底层网络破坏性的中间件架构，以及延迟容忍、远程执行任务的机制。该研究将为改善人类生活质量做出切实贡献，并对基于互联网的应用、计算机科学和工程产生重大影响。项目成果与危机管理情况、娱乐、交通、教育和军事中的应用相关。总体而言，该项目成果在娱乐、医疗、交通与汽车、军事、教育等领域具有广泛的适用性。研究成果将纳入研究生和本科生课程。
