Future scientific and technological efforts to achieve better understanding of oceans and water-related applications will rely heavily on our ability to jointly consider communications, actuation and sensing in a unified system that includes instruments, vehicles, human operators and sensors of all types. The goals of this project are to design networking tools for mobile underwater networks, develop novel navigation mechanisms for communication-constrained autonomous underwater vehicles and to ultimately integrate sensing and classification to provide solutions for the exploration-exploitation tradeoff.This project will lead to development of underwater communication methods with applications to science, security, and industry in the areas of environmental monitoring, aquatic eco-system analysis, ocean accident remediation, surveillance for defense applications, homeland security, oil and gas, aquaculture, geological and oceanographic science, and marine biology. It will also contribute to the training of new information technology professionals and scientists with expertise in interdisciplinary research spanning underwater networks, oceanography and computer science.

今后为更好地了解海洋和与水有关的应用而进行的科学和技术努力，将在很大程度上取决于我们是否有能力在一个包括各种仪器、车辆、操作人员和传感器的统一系统中共同审议通信、驱动和传感问题。该项目的目标是为移动的水下网络设计网络工具，为通信受限的自主水下航行器开发新的导航机制，并最终整合传感和分类，为勘探开发权衡提供解决方案。该项目将导致开发水下通信方法，并将其应用于环境监测、水生生态系统分析、海洋事故补救、国防应用监测、国土安全、石油和天然气、水产养殖、地质和海洋科学以及海洋生物学。它还将帮助培训新的信息技术专业人员和具有跨学科研究专长的科学家，这些研究涉及水下网络、海洋学和计算机科学。
