Delay Tolerant Bulk Data Transfers on the Internet or how to book some terabytes on "red-eye" bandwidth

Dr. Nikolaos Laoutaris, Telefonica I+D Research (Barcelona, Spain)
Many emerging scientific and industrial applications require transferring multiple terabytes of data on a daily basis. Examples include pushing scientific datasets from particle accelerators/colliders to laboratories around the world, synchronizing data centers in different continents, and replicating collections of high definition videos from Olympic Games, taking Location on a different time-zone. A convenient property of all above applications is their ability to tolerate delivery delays from a few hours to a few days. Such Delay-Tolerant Bulk (DTB) transfers are currently being serviced through the postal system using hard drives and DVDs, or through expensive dedicated networks.

What do opportunism, data mining and coordination have to do with system-level optimization of wireless networks?

Prof. Dr. Gustavo de Veciana, Visiting Researcher, IMDEA Networks (Madrid, Spain); Temple Foundation Centennial Fellow Wireless Networking and Communications Group Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, The University of Texas at Austin (USA)
We present a system-level framework to mitigate interference using coarse grained coordination of transmissions across base stations. Our approach is based on collecting and mining measured data capturing a user population's diversity in sensitivity to interference. The talk introduces the abstractions and optimization framework we have devised to enable this type of coordination. The talk is in two parts addressing what we deem to be key areas of inquiry.
