The past decade has seen a dramatic increase in the number of devices and applications for wireless networks.  During this time, wireless networks have undergone a revolution, from fixed-infrastructure networks to mobile ad hoc networks to sensor networks. Not surprisingly, as the network structures have evolved, so have the problems, most notably, bandwidth utilization, power consumption, dynamic reconfiguration, and quality of service. Collectively, these problems add to the complexity of the design and implementation of both connection-oriented and datagram protocols. The objectives of this research are to develop solutions to the problems of bandwidth utilization, power consumption, dynamic reconfiguration, and quality of service in mobile ad hoc and sensor networks through the use of adaptive protocols that allow a node to be both self-aware and neighbour aware. In addition, the research will continue to focus the development of the novel, Cartesian network architecture, as our past experience with this network has lead to the design of an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) router, and several wireless protocols, all of which demonstrate the viability of this type of network design.

在过去的十年中，无线网络设备和应用的数量急剧增加，无线网络经历了一场革命，从固定基础设施网络到移动的ad hoc网络，再到传感器网络。毫不奇怪，随着网络结构的发展，问题也随之而来，最值得注意的是带宽利用率、功耗、动态重新配置和服务质量。总的来说，这些问题增加了面向连接协议和数据报协议的设计和实现的复杂性。本研究的目标是开发解决方案的带宽利用率，功耗，动态重新配置，并在移动的ad hoc和传感器网络的服务质量的问题，通过使用自适应协议，允许一个节点是自我意识和邻居意识。此外，该研究将继续专注于新的笛卡尔网络架构的开发，因为我们过去在该网络方面的经验已经导致了FPGA（现场可编程门阵列）路由器和几种无线协议的设计，所有这些都证明了这种网络设计的可行性。
