报告内容摘要：

The last decade has seen a research wave in terrestrial sensor networks, in which the embedded networked sensing technologies have revolutionized the way for human being to understand and interact with the physical world on the land. This decade will witness a revolution for the water world: distributed cyber-aquatic systems will enable us to densely deploy static and mobile systems in an underwater environment, significantly enhancing the spatial and temporal dimensions of our monitoring and exploration capabilities. These new technologies bridging the cyber and aquatic worlds will transform the ways in observing and understanding the sparsely sampled oceans, estuaries, lakes and rivers.

The distributed cyber-aquatic system drastically differs from any existing technology; the method will densely deploy static and mobile systems (we also use nodes to refer to individual systems) with sensing and communication capabilities so that the spatial coverage is greatly increased; meanwhile the approach will exploit advanced power harvesting, storage and management techniques to lengthen the system lifetime. These spatial-temporal scalable systems will significantly improve the monitoring and exploration capabilities in many critical applications. To make such a system a reality, many challenging intellectual problems need to be solved. This talk will first discuss the challenges from five aspects: communication, power, sensing, platform and cyber-control. Then it will focus on underwater acoustic communication and networking. Due to the unique characteristics of underwater acoustic channels (low available bandwidth, long propagation delays, high error rates and high temporal/spatial dynamics), existing terrestrial wireless networking techniques cannot be directly applied and new research at every level of the protocol suite is demanded. Adopting a top-down approach along the layered protocol stack, we will roughly go down from the top application layer to the bottom physical layer. At each layer, a set of new design intricacies are identified and discussed.
