- Description
- The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Advanced Technology Office (ATO) will be hosting an Industry Day Workshop on the topic of Connectionless Networks. Connectionless Networks seeks to develop technology to allow radio networks to send and receive messages without any initial link acquisition and tracking. The approach is to exploit current signal processing components, intelligent (processing and memory intensive) routing, and availability of situational information to demonstrate a total energy savings of at least 100 times typical connection oriented network applications. The Industry Day Workshop will be held at the George Mason University, Arlington Campus Professional Center, Ste 251, 3401 N. Fairfax Drive, Arlington, VA 22201 on 4 March 2003 from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm.
