DFG - SPP 1140, Teilprojekt: Energy Aware Self Organized Communication in Complex Networks
|
|
|
|
PROJEKT: Networks surrounding us are growing and getting even more complex because of actual progresses in ubiquitous and pervasive computing and distributed wireless networking. Conventional methods and mechanisms are not suitable any more. Possible solutions can be found in nature which offers mechanisms and techniques resulting in enormous benefits with just little effort. Self organization of complex systems and the arising of complex emergent global behaviour from simple local rules are the most promising and still mysterious areas to explore.

Nature works following the principle "Simple rules rule.", although this is not always obvious. The main task is to discover the simple rules and mechanisms behind the complex appearing patterns of behaviour and natural processes to make them applicable on a technological level. On the one hand, we still have less knowledge on these principles and a lot of research work is needed. We have to investigate what natural phenomena can be adapted, how they function and what advantages can be expected. On the other hand, we have to unbind ourselves from conventional engineering methods and to step on novel ways. In the context of this application, we target on exploring the interrelations between causes and effects in complex and scale free systems. Sensor networks will be used as paradigm for the biological structures and natural phenomena we want to examine. Emerging appearances like stigmergy, altruism and graceful degradation will be regarded. Our aim is the emergence of energy aware communication methods in complex networks by designing and altering local rules.
