The proliferation of wireless mesh networks (WMN) in metro-areas is expected to have a large impact on our communities and municipalities. WMN is poised to be the infrastructure that enables new types of value-added applications in public safety, business, and entertainment. Enabling novel applications on top of a WMN infrastructure is expected to have a large effect on how people communicate, interact and do business. This research investigates a systems-based approach for building a WMN-based wireless computing platform. The platform will use technologies such as wireless autonomic and service-oriented architectures. With the platform, mesh nodes- with no prior knowledge of each other- can share their resources to facilitate the execution of a given application task. Resources are autonomic individual elements that incorporate specifications of functional and non-functional behaviors. The platform will be equipped with self-* capabilities in order to handle the dynamic characteristics of operating metro-environments such as highways, consumer radio and news services, firefighting and social networking. This will improve the serviceability and performance of municipal wireless network of Canadian cities.

无线网状网络（WMN）在大都市地区的扩散预计将对我们的社区和市政产生巨大影响。WMN有望成为在公共安全、商业和娱乐领域实现新型增值应用的基础设施。在WMN基础设施之上启用新的应用程序预计将对人们的通信、交互和开展业务的方式产生重大影响。本研究探讨一种以系统为基础的方法，以建立一个以无线网状网为基础的无线计算平台。该平台将使用无线自主和面向服务的架构等技术。通过该平台，网状节点-彼此没有先验知识-可以共享它们的资源，以促进给定应用任务的执行。资源是自主的独立元素，它包含功能和非功能行为的规范。该平台将配备自我 * 功能，以处理运营地铁环境的动态特性，如高速公路，消费者广播和新闻服务，消防和社交网络。这将提高加拿大城市的市政无线网络的可服务性和性能。
