| IMA Workshop: Measurement, Modeling and Analysis of the Internet, January 12-16, 2004 |
Description:
This three-day course is mainly aimed at a mathematical audience that wants to know more about how the Internet works -- its architecture and protocols that have (in part) been designed some 20-30 years ago, the dominant technologies and applications that have been responsible for (much of) the Internet's explosive growth throughout the last 10-20 years, and the hardware and software components that have supported a development that has transformed the Internet into (one of) the largest, complex, man-made system.
The short course will feature a range of highly informative tutorials that will deal with topics of relevance to and will prepare the participants for the upcoming workshops. Topics will include
- Architecture, protocols, design principles, evolution (4 hours)
- Measurements, simulation, analysis (4 hours)
- Control theory, traffic dynamic, topology (4 hours).
By the end of this short course, the participants should have a basic understanding of the main difficulties associated with measuring, operating, modeling, and analyzing large-scale communication networks such as today's Internet. They will also appreciate the fact that while the Internet has become a gold mine for new, exciting and challenging mathematical problems, solving them in a way that is relevant for networking engineers will in general require new mathematics.
