  1. EE 392I: Seminar on Trends in Computing and Communicationshttp://www.stanford.edu/class/ee392i Jatinder Pal Singh March 29th 2010

  2. Introduction • Lectures and invited talks • Industry, academia, venture capital sectors • Current trends in computing/communications /services • This quarter: Open mobile and networking platforms, service centric architectures, wireless networks, cloud computing, etc. • Initiatives for research and open innovation in industry/academia

  3. Seminar Motivation and Significance • Rise of innovation in services in the past decade • Research and development landscape beyond just hardware and software • Recent drive towards open source platforms • changing operational trends for industries in the fixed and mobile telecommunication ecosystem • First hand exposure to such trends in an interactive environment • Opportunity to learn from and share perspectives • speakers from diverse technology settings

  4. Logistics • 1 unit class • Grading: Credit/No Credit based on class attendance • Students can miss up to 1 seminar and still get credit for the class • Sign in sheet will be circulated at the beginning of every class

  6. Networking and Computing - Changing Paradigms • Clean Slate Internet Design Program at Stanford • http://cleanslate.stanford.edu/ • Intent to create a platform for innovation and make it available to research communities • Drive towards open platforms has implications for service providers, networking equipment vendors, end-users, etc. • Networking, Computing and Storage Applications underway • OpenFlow as one of the enabling technologies • http://www.openflowswitch.org/

  7. Open Source Mobile Platforms • Emergence of Open Mobile Platforms in recent past • Desirable for carriers, research communities, and (some) vendors • Better innovation, agility, and reduction in fragmentation in the handset market • Third party application development has taken off on multiple platforms • Openness together with increase in data rates, and processing power fosters novel applications • Access to OS helps efficient phone design (battery, performance, applications) • Open Handset Alliance • http://www.openhandsetalliance.com/

  8. Trends in wireless networks • Cellular networks, WLANs, WMANs have been constantly evolving towards higher data rates • Growth in wireless data consumption by end-users • Staggering stats for cellular scenario • Data offloading solutions desirable owing to cellular spectrum and infrastructure costs • Mobile is the future • Promising growth opportunity for service providers, developers, and vendors in mobile space • Growth of fixed line businesses generally stagnating

  9. Service Centric Networking • Designing infrastructure allowing service providers to roll out new services easily and efficiently • Enabling easy service creation by third party developers and end users • Reducing network management and cost of operating the networks • Equipping the research community to harness the consequent innovation models

  10. Cloud Computing Paradigms • Handheld devices limited in battery and processing • Application execution in the cloud • But which apps, when, and how? • Access to handheld OS facilitates efficient design of apps running locally and remotely • Increased processing availability in the cloud allows for novel apps

  11. Agenda for rest of the quarter • Talks/lectures to follow encompassing the areas mentioned • Background review of the topics will help learn better during the subsequent classes • Collaborative research initiatives by the students welcome
