[Nets-seminars] UCL EE talk -- final one of term

[Richard G. Clegg]

Today's seminar (22nd June) will be at 16:00 in Gower Street GS/302.

Nishanth Sastry, King's college London

Title: "What can *we* do for the network?: Social network support for 
data delivery"
Abstract:
Are social networks useful in other computing contexts beyond the 
ubiquitous 'share' buttons  sprinkled all over the Web? This talk will 
introduce a simple cross-layer design methodology that applies information
derived from the social network layer to adapt lower-layer network 
infrastructure. Multiple case studies will be presented, as time 
permits, that apply social network information to different 
network-layer problems including routing in opportunistic networks, 
delivering the long-tail of user-generated content, saving energy in 
storage subsystems and preventing spam.
