ARENA @ USC

Welcome to the Arena for Research on Emerging Networks and Applications at University of South Carolina (ARENA @ USC). The goal of our research is to enhance the availability and reliability of wired and wireless networks to the level suitable for supporting emerging applications and services. Towards that goal, we are currently developing various resilient routing and forwarding schemes. For more details, please visit research.
