Course Overview

The purpose of this seminar is to discuss some advanced topics in computer networks. This course is theory-oriented research seminar (5 ECTS, 2 SWS), held on a weekly base and comprising the following components:

  • Weekly Presentation + Weekly Paper Reading and Discussion
  • Final Presentation
  • Final Report

The material in the seminar is mainly drawn from the research literature in top journals/conferences, like ToN,TMC, TPDS, SIGCOMM, SIGMETRICS, INFOCOM, MOBICOM, MOBIHOC, WWW, CoNEXT.

Requirements

  • Each participant is required to read the assigned paper before the seminar and prepare the review of the paper, which should include the following parts:
    • Summary of the paper
    • Pros and Cons of the paper (your conclusion)
    • NOTE!! Every participant should provide the paper review BEFORE the seminar (23:59 Wednesday). => the review form is available at [Paper_Review_Form_ATCN.doc]
  • During each weekly seminar, one participant is assigned for presenting the paper (each presentation is for ~30 minutes) and the list of pros and cons is discussed by all the participants.
  • In the middle of the semester, everyone is requested to pick a topic and prepare:
    • Final report: Essay (5~6 pages, double columns, IEEE format) for your chosen research topic, which contains a comprehensive literature survey + a detailed discussion of some key enabling technologies
