Dr. Fabián Bustamante, "Distributed Systems on Vehicular Networks - Challenges and Opportunities"

Fabián Bustamante, Assistant Professor, Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Northwestern University, will present a seminar.

Time: 11:00 am
Location: 1047 ERF please note the change from usual location

Abstract: Advances in network connectivity, storage and processing capabilities are allowing us to imagine a myriad of interesting distributed systems based on inter-vehicle communication. Millions of "equipped" vehicles could provide an easily upgradeable, naturally scalable, and widely distributed network for general applications - from safer, more efficient vehicular transportation to emergency response and entertainment. While offering clear avenues for impacting society, distributed systems on vehicular networks face a number of hard, multidisciplinary research challenges. In this talk I will discuss some of those challenges and briefly discuss how we are addressing them as part of our C3 project on large-scale systems based on car-to-car cooperation.
