David Choffnes, PhD (Distributed Systems, Operating Systems, Networking, 3G, Mobile Wireless Ad-hoc Networks)

Old is new again!

Our work on detecting communities in BitTorrent has been accepted to IPTPS 2010.
A revised version of our tech report on pitfalls for testbed evaluations of Internet systems has been accepted for the April issue of SIGCOMM CCR. One of the key findings is that our current testbeds and public measurement vantage points are woefully inadequate for inferring properties of a large, Internet scale system such as BitTorrent. A more comprehensive study of this issue is under submission.
I passed my dissertation defense on February 15th! Slides from the talk are here.
I gave a talk about EdgeScope at the AIMS workshop on February 7th. I also briefly presented my dissertation work.
