The Wireless Grid Innovation Testbed Lab

WiGiT is a Virtual Organization, and a shared experimental testbed spanning campuses and communities. WiGiT is conducting research and refining open specifications for transformative technologies to create infrastructureless ad hoc networks and markets, bridging the gap between wireless network middleware and grid application layers and accelerate commercialization and adoption of new products and services. WiGiT research serves industry needs for intra-system, or crossover work bridging the world of grid or cloud computing and wireless Internet, by contributing to open specifications and open application programming interfaces for wireless grids. This initiative includes faculty and students from Syracuse University, Virginia Tech, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Tufts University, Instituto Superior Tecnico, Lisbon, Rochester Institute of Technology, University at Albany College of Nanoscience Engineering, City College of New York/City University of New York, and Wayne State, as well as many firms and government partners. All are welcome to join in this open innovation effort
