v27 v28 5 5 The Wireless Open-Access Research Platform (WARP) is a scalable and extensible programmable wireless platform, built from the ground up to prototype advanced wireless networks. WARP combines high-performance programmable hardware with an open-source repository of reference designs and support materials. 6 6 7 The WARP Project was founded in 2006 by Prof. [http://www.ece.rice.edu/~ashu/ Ashu Sabharwal] at [http://www.rice.edu/ Rice University]. The project was originally funded by the [http://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward?AWD_ID=0551692 National Science Foundation]. The project has since grown into a self-sustaining open-source effort with users around the world. 7 The WARP Project was founded in 2006 by Prof. [http://www.ece.rice.edu/~ashu/ Ashu Sabharwal] at [http://www.rice.edu/ Rice University].
