In this research seminar we study the design of modern data networks, concentrating on new and emerging research topics. Broad topics of interest include router design, packet scheduling, network control, multimedia applications and virtualized networks. Participants are expected to present recent papers on current research topics of interest and/or present results from their own research activities. Credit 1 unit.
.
Participants will present papers from the recent technical literature. Presenters should email a copy of their slides to the Master of Ceremonies by 5:00 on the day of the presentation. Please send them as a pdf file, with preferably two slides per page (use the handouts option on the Power Point print dialog). Please name your email attachment using the naming convention that you can infer from the links in the schedule.
All participants are expected to read each paper thoroughly and be prepared to participate in the discussion for the paper. There is also a review mechanism that you can use to submit reviews of papers. This is optional, but you are encouraged to submit reviews of any papers that you find particularly interesting (or that you really want to slam). Use the on-line review form to enter your reviews.
A Usenet newsgroup (wu.cse.class.770) has been created for the seminar which you are encouraged to use to post comments on the papers under discussion. It will also be used to post routine announcements, so everyone should subscribe to the newsgroup and check it regularly. The news server is newsreader.wustl.edu.
Papers should be selected from recent research conferences or journals in networking. Some links are provided in the left margin. You need not limit yourself to these sources, but if you are in doubt about whether a paprticular paper is appropriate, please contact the Master of Ceremonies for guidance. The left margin also includes links to papers and presentations from previous semesters.
A schedule of presentations appears below. This schedule is generated automatically, based on entries made on the scheduling form you will find here. Use this form to reserve a date for a talk or schedule a particular paper for presentation. See the form for more details.
