The main objective of this proposal is to introduce a next-generation overlay network that lies between the applications and the underlying heterogenous substrate networks.  This overlay understands the performance requirements specific to each application, and optimizes them by managing and allocating various types of network resources. The overlay acts as the glue that holds the different substrate networks together and presents a transparent interface to the applications. It also functions as an intelligent optimizing network managing layer which takes specifications from applications and optimally delivers services to satisfy the differing requirements.To achieve such an objective, first an accurate mathematical model of the overlay network residing on top of heterogeneous substrates (wired, wireless mobile, wireless sensor) will be developed.  Then, the model identification must be obtained, in a decentralized manner.  Finally, methods and algorithms for the application-aware network optimization will be developed.

该提案的主要目标是引入下一代覆盖网络，该网络位于应用程序和底层异构底层网络之间。该覆盖网络了解每个应用程序的特定性能要求，并通过管理和分配各种类型的网络资源来优化它们。覆盖层作为胶水将不同的基板网络保持在一起，并为应用提供透明的界面。为了实现这一目标，首先需要建立一个精确的异构覆盖网络的数学模型，然后根据不同的业务需求，对覆盖网络的性能进行优化（有线的、无线的移动的、无线传感器）将被开发。然后，必须以分散的方式获得模型识别。最后，将开发用于应用感知网络优化的方法和算法。
