Adaptation and Integration across the Layers of Self Organizing Wireless Networks to Achieve Performance and Scalability Preston Marshall, DARPA This presentation will discuss the research formulation and early results in various DARPA programs developing technology to synthesize information about wireless network topology and operational states, the specific information generation and access patterns of the nodes, and the optimization of processing, physical and routing topologies to achieve this. Specific applications of these technologies include content-based description and retrieval for persistent caches in Delay or Disruption Tolerant Networks, adjustment of physical layer topology in Wireless After Next Networks, spectrum aware network topologies, and exploitation of traffic correlation in Connectionless Networks.

Preston F. Marshall serves a Program Manager for many DARPA wireless, optical, and networking research programs, including opportunistic spectrum usage in the neXt Generation (XG) Communications Program, Wireless Networks After Next, Low energy Connectionless Networking, Radio-Isotope Power Sources, and Delay and Disruption Tolerant Networking. Mr. Marshall previously was employed in a number of communications and military systems positions.
