Keynotes

Prof. Jon Crowcroft, University of Cambridge, United Kingdom

“ErdOS: A Social Network Operating System for Mobile Resource Pooling”

Abstract:
The resource poolng principle is re-emerging as a way to use statistical multiplexing properties of networks with multiple redundent paths more efficiently than in the past. In this work, we are applying the same principle to mobile handheld systems such as smart phones. The goal of the system we are building, called ERdos, is to pool all resources such as sensors (cameras, micro[hones, acceleromters), storage (memory, disk, flash) and networks (bluetooth, wifi, 2.5G/3G, zigbee). This talk will describe the approach, the system, and some initial results and thoughts about the future of such systems.

“Network Coding and User Cooperation on Mobile Phones”

Abstract:
This keynote addresses the potential of network coding in mobile communication systems. Network coding will change the communication world as it changes the way we design communication protocols. The talk will also highlight a special case of user cooperation and the combination with network coding. The talk will highlight the developments of network coding on mobile platforms (Symbian/iPhone/Android). Small demonstrations will show the feasibility of network coding even on smallest mobile devices.
