Abstract:

This report summarizes research results over the life of the Experimental Methods in Network Science project covering approximately 2017–2020. The project focused on two main topics: context-aware networking and cybersecurity for resilient networking. Context-aware networking aims to improve the performance of tactical networks and services they support using context awareness to enhance current state-of-practice methods that do not necessarily account for dynamics of the environment and limitations of resource-constrained edge devices and networks. Cybersecurity for resilient networking aims to enhance the security of tactical networks in the presence of dynamic and sophisticated adversaries.
