La Feria Madrid por la Ciencia (The Forum for Science) is a key part of the Programa de Ciencia y Sociedad (Science and Society Program) that the Regional Government of Madrid launched in 2000, through the Dirección General de Universidades e Investigación (Directorate-General of Universities and Research). This Program seeks not only to promote dialogue between citizens and scientists, but also to increase the public’s participation in science.

Mext Interim Meeting 2007: Focusing on nemo global development

The conference will be conducted in English

On July 11th INDEA Networks held the Annual Inaugural Meeting of its Scientific Council in Madrid. The meeting marked a milestone in the establishment of the research foundation. This prestigious Council is comprised of eleven of the World´s top researchers in network technology.

The Council was introduced to dignitaries, including senior representatives from the Regional Government of Madrid, who created and founded the IMDEA initiative. Having formally accepted their positions as Members, these eminent experts proceeded to discuss various aspects of the Foundation’s scientific strategy, which will help to steer the direction of research to be pursued over the coming years.

The dominant paradigm in both IETF and IEEE 802.1 standards for shortest path bridges is based on link-state routing in layer two. This results on hybrid devices of router and switch.

The objective of this course is to learn how to model cellular systems for the use in optimizing the design of this type of network. The course will consist of the following parts:

• A revision of basic queueing models
• Analysis of cellular systems with a single cell
• Channel reservation strategies possibility for the design of systems that optimize performance whilst minimizing the probability of interrupting current sessions
• Models and algorithms to support the different priorities of existing users
• Flow guarantees to different users through models of service differentiation
• Hierarchical cellular structures

Meeting: IMDEA Networks Scientific Council

A systems approach to network coding and random coding:

• Explain how network coding is used in wireless networks
• Show an example of random coding to implement network coding

This talk on network and random coding is of particular interest to researchers tackling wireless, P2P and multipath routing.

On June 26th IMDEA Networks met with leading industry representatives, whose companies have been invited to provide representatives to its Board of Trustees, as well as other key stakeholders in the new international research institute.
