Collaborative Research: CT-T: Security and Survivability of Real-Time Systems with MANETs

Yau-Kim摘要协作研究：CT-T：移动自组网实时系统的安全性和可生存性移动自组网实时系统在科研、医疗保健、灾难恢复、环境控制、军事和国土安全以及工业过程控制等领域具有潜在的应用前景。例如，这种系统可以为灾害和救援情况下的行动提供至关重要的支持，例如最近在整个南亚发生的毁灭性海啸，整个通信基础设施被摧毁。本研究从三个相互作用的方面来研究系统对安全性、生存性和实时性能的要求：对MRT的安全和实时需求的描述和分析；为MRT提供可靠无线通信的约束感知生存性通信技术；以及MRT的安全性、容错实时性能和可生存性无线通信的集成。该项目旨在开发：(A)用于指定安全和实时需求的通用MRTS模型和策略描述语言；(B)用于MANET中的约束感知容错拓扑控制的算法；(C)用于延迟敏感和延迟严格的实时应用的信道接入调度协议。该研究建立在已有的时间触发消息触发对象编程和规范框架以及情景感知分布式安全策略实施方案的基础上，该研究成果有望极大地提高移动自组织网络的应用，如灾难救援，并将促进自组织网络与现有全球信息基础设施之间的交互。在安全和可生存的实时系统中正在开发新的课程材料，结果在网络上自由传播。

Yau-Kim abstractCollaborative Research: CT-T: Security and Survivability of Real-time Systems with MANETsReal-time systems with mobile ad hoc networks (mRTS) have potential applications in many areas, including scientific research, healthcare, disaster recovery, environment control, military and homeland security, and industrial process control. For example, such systems can providemission critical support for operations in disaster and rescue situations, such as the recent devastating tsunamis throughout South Asia, where the entire communication infrastructure was destroyed. This research focuses on system requirements for security, survivability and real-time performance by focusing on three interacting aspects: specification and analysis of security and real-time requirements for mRTS; constraint-aware survivable communication techniques to provide reliable wireless communication in mRTS; and integration of security, fault-tolerant real-time performance, and survivable wireless communication for mRTS. The project seeks to develop: (a) a general mRTS model and a policy specification language for specifying security and real-time requirements, (b) algorithms for constraint-aware fault tolerant topology control in MANETs, (c) a channel access scheduling protocol for real-time applications that are delay-sensitive and delay-stringent. This research builds on prior work that developed a Time-triggered Message-triggered Object programming and specification framework, and a situation-aware distributed security policy enforcement scheme.The results of this research are expected to greatly improve mobile ad hoc network applicatons, such as disaster rescue and will foster interaction between ad-hoc networks and the existing global information infrastructure. New course materials are being developed in secure and survivable real-time systems, and results are freely disseminated on the web.
