Apr. 23, 2015 - Prof. Lixia Zhang from UCLA visited CECA and gave a talk on "Tackling the Challenge of Developing A New Internet Architecture".

Abstract: The Named Data Networking (NDN) project will be celebrating its 5th anniversary this fall. During this short exciting period the NDN team has followed an application-driven approach and prototyped a wide range of different applications. Designing, implementing, and demonstrating these applications yielded lessons about the advantages and challenges of the NDN architecture. In this talk I will share with you a few observations and lessons learned, as well as new insights into the potential impact this new network architecture may bring to the broader computing area.
