Thomas Kunz will be giving an online seminar titled “Adventures in Wireless Network Protocols: My past 20+ years.”

Seminar Abstract:

Since joining Carleton, I have worked with my students on networking protocols for wireless networks. This talk will provide an overview of this work. It will describe the work we did on infrastructure-less multihop wireless networks (MANETs, WSN, etc.), where we developed novel MAC, routing, localization, and clock synchronization protocols (to name but a few). More recently, we studied challenges that arise from the increasing softwarization in such networks, most notably the introduction of SDN and NFV. While these ideas originated in infrastructure-based networks, they hold much promise in infrastructure-less networks. I will conclude the presentation with a discussion of some of our most recent work, where we apply Machine Learning techniques to solving networking issues.
