The Network Reading Group is a weekly forum for students and
faculty to discuss current, interesting, and influential papers in the
area of computer networks. At each meeting, the group will focus on
one paper which the group members themselves will select. Papers with
any connection to networking are fair game, e.g. papers from Sigcomm,
SOSP, Mobicom, Infocom, and Transactions on Networking, as well as
industry white papers, RFC's, and web pages. One or two members will
shape each discussion by presenting an overview of the material and an
outline of the discussion. Through discussion the group will clarify
the content of the paper and critically assess the paper's
contributions and limitations. The group's goal is to not only
familiarize members with the current literature in the area of
networks, but also to encourage members to meet others with similar
interests, exchange ideas, and to stimulate new directions of
research.
If you would like to submit a suggestion for a paper, volunteer to
lead a discussion, or subscribe to the netread mailing list, please
send mail to netread-request@salsa.lcs.mit.edu.
