Abstract

Automatic Dynamic Resource Management (Auto-DRM) architecture is a framework to efficiently manage shared resources in the tactical network environments without human operator intervention. The AutoDRM architecture was developed to resolve the resource contention issues and to improve the quality of service in the tactical network environments. The information herein describes key components of the AutoDRM architecture. An experimental end-to-end network prototype test bed consisting of simulated satellite communications (SATCOM) and an OPNET system-in-the-loop (SITL) scenario was also developed to host the AutoDRM system. Experimental results demonstrate improved network performance when AutoDRM is deployed.
