What are the Benefits of Coding in Content Distribution Networks?
Emina Soljanin Bell Laboratories Monday, November 19, 2007 at 1:00PM 54-134 Engineering IV Building Refreshments Served Abstract: Network coding is an elegant and novel technique introduced at the turn of the millennium to improve network throughput and performance. Its power comes from allowing network nodes to combine and process different incoming information streams. It is widely believed that potential benefits of network coding are huge, in particular in terms of throughput and security. This talk will examine if such beliefs are generally justified, and quantify coding benefits for certain network topologies and traffic scenarios. Biography: Emina Soljanin received the B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from Sarajevo University, Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1986, and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from Texas A&M University, College Station, in 1989 and 1994.
