Wireless Peer-to-Peer (WP2P) computing require wireless networking and infrastructure network support. The first step is to look at how the different available technologies will integrate and work with each other. One of the next steps is to seek solutions for connecting wireless devices to such "integrated and heterogeneous networks". These two steps together form the evolutionary approach towards ubiquitous communications. This project targets at the designs, research and development of two sets of systems: WP2P communication protocols/platform for mobile peers to provide smooth QoS connections/communications, synchronization and roaming over the heterogeneous networks on real-time multimedia service. WP2P will be open, scalable, and complaint with IEEE/ITU/IETF standards. In particular, the researchers target at the following aspects of R&D:

1. WiFi and 3G-324M Multimedia Transmission Protocols Stack: Design and implementation of 3G-324M protocol stack for mobile wireless video/audio communication. We intend to make the mobile peers be interconnected and to support video/audio transmission through 3G and WiFi (WLAN) infrastructures.
2. Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) based Multi-Mode Soft-Switching Package for 3G/WiFi/Internet Transmission: Implemention of the multi-mode transmissions for circuit switching and packet switching protocols based on SIP sessions. A session can be a simple two-way videophone call or collaborative multimedia conference sessions. Hop-to-hope peer routing and information distribution and diffusion.
3. Adaptive IP multimedia subsystem package based on WP2P platform to support mobile peers routing and roaming in the heterogeneous networks of 3G/GSM/WiFi/Internet to setup/maintain the real-time multimedia connections among the mobile/fixed peers, facing the mobility of the peers in the heterogeneous networks.
