Ciclo de Seminários

Os Seminários PESC têm como objetivo trazer palestras acessíveis a um público mais amplo, ministradas por pesquisadores e professores mais experientes (tanto do PESC como de instituições externas). Ao longo do ano, teremos temas e focos variados, podendo ser mais específicos ou mais abrangentes.

A apresentação e discussão de ideias novas e antigas de diferentes temas contribui de maneira fundamental para a formação e pesquisa desenvolvida por alunos e professores, sendo muitas vezes de interesse de um público mais amplo.

Os Seminários que são on-line ou híbridos ficam gravados no Canal do PESC no YouTube, que apresenta muitas outras gravações importantes sobre o que acontece no PESC.

Efficient Identification and Computation of Link Metrics via Network Tomography

Don Towsley, Distinguished University Professor, University of Massachusetts Amherst
27 de agosto de 2014

Resumo - Slides

In this talk I address the problem of identifying link metrics based on end-to-end path measurements. It is easily shown that the number of measurement paths must be at least the number of links. Furthermore, these paths must produce a set of linearly independent equations in the unknown link metrics. The first part of the talk will focus on characterizing these conditions in terms of those the network topology must exhibit and the number/placement of monitors needed to make these end-to-end measurements. This includes solving the problem of determining the minimum number of monitors needed, their placement in an arbitrary network, and the selection of paths.

In the second part of the talk we look at the related problem of "failure localization". Here the problem is that of identifying, in the case of a network failure, the link that actually failed. We characterize topological conditions that the network must satisfy in order to identify up to k failed links.
This work has been done in conjunction with L. Ma (Imperial College), T. He (IBM), K. Leung (Imperial College), A. Swami (Army Research Lab)
