Project goal: Design and develop the network technologies necessary to establish ultra-large (tens of thousands of nodes), highly scalable, highly adaptive, ad hoc networks that provide robust networking across densely connected deployments of inexpensive wireless nodes.

See BBN's press release for additional details. The DARPA WAND project (known internally as PIRANA) is part of the DARPA WNaN project.

Project goal: Develop technologies (routing algorithms, content dissemination protocols, policy-based controls) to facilitate communication in heavily-disrupted networks.

Utility for Subversion servers to allow fine-grained access control for ssh-based clients without resorting to the inconvenient authorized_keys trick.
