Title: Cognitive Networking

We are developing a cognitive networking control and management architecture accepts multiple generations of networking components for high capacity, fast setup, and global reach. The overall goal of cognitive networking project is to architect, simulate, prototype, and experiment on a network with

• improved robustness and adaptability,

• improved usability and comprehensibility,

• improved security and stability, and

• reduced human intervention for operation and configuration

The areas of research that cognitive networking draws upon are cognitive networking, network control and management for heterogeneous networking, mobile ad-hoc networking, all optical networking, and photonic switching technologies
