This seminar is part of the The Clean Slate Internet Design research program that is aimed at addressing two broad and ambitious research questions: "With what we know today and if we were to start again with a clean-slate, how would we design a global communications infrastructure?" and "How should the Internet look in 15 years?". This seminar builds on last year's very successful one and will examine research questions and proposed ideas/approaches at a deeper level in various sub-fields that are concerned with the Internet design: network architecture, network security and robustness, mobile wireless networking, distributed services and systems, theory-inspired network architecture and others. The seminar will essentially review what broader research community has done so far in this field and help us better formulate research themes and projects for our program. Each week we will have a speaker from Stanford (participating student or faculty) or from outside who will make an organized presentation and also lead a group discussion.
