The syllabus for this research-oriented course is driven by published papers in the broad area of in networked systems. Written evaluations is submitted before each weekly meeting. Students must present at least two research papers and will be graded on the quality of their presentation. The course topics include, but are not limited to: reliable networked systems, software defined networks, network virtualization, datacenter networks, cloud computing, and big data. The top networked systems conferences (such as SIGCOMM, NSDI, SOSP, CoNEXT) will be the main source for the papers that will be discussed.
