Mission
|
To perform research on network protocols,
peer-to-peer networks, distributed systems,
multimedia, and error correcting codes. We
mix algorithm design with protocol
specification and build working systems.

Some projects:
-
Attack-resistant Peer-to-peer Systems:
We're looking at ways of making
peer-to-peer systems resistant to attack,
focusing in particular on robustness to
both rational-greedy and malicious attacks
by peers.
-
Peer-to-peer Multicast Streaming: What
kind of peer-to-peer overlay can
efficiently stream video to millions of
users?
-
Multimedia File System (MMFS): In this
project, we look at how the demands of
today's high-bandwidth (DVD, HDTV) media
affect storage systems, particularly those
on Personal Video Recorders (PVRs) like
TiVo.
-
Media-aware Error Correcting Codes: How do
we go about designing error correcting
codes for the specific needs of multimedia
transmissions?
