Our subject matter experts conduct studies including simulations, technology evaluation, prototyping, proof-of-concepts, testbed creation and gap analysis. Our work has been published and patented.
Expert Researchers
The Solana team has extensive experience in undertaking studies of next generation architectures, protocols and technologies. The core expertise covers areas such as cyber security, wireless networks (Cellular, 802.11 and MANET) and routing & switching protocols and standards. The team brings together information from systems specifications, IETF and IEEE standards, simulation & modeling and from network measurements in order to undertake analysis and provide clear recommendations to clients.
The Solana team has undertaken development of simulation models to evaluate the performance of various network protocols and architectures (MANET, routing, cyber security, QoS) under diverse traffic conditions and network topologies. The results of the studies have been published in acclaimed conferences and journals.
Solana maintains strong research collaboration with a number of Canadian Universities.
