Title   : An Architecture for Content Routing Support in the Internet


Speaker : Mark Gritter, Computer Science Department,
          Stanford University


Abstract:  

The primary use of the Internet is content distribution: delivery of web
pages, audio, and video streams to client browsers. Yet the Internet was
never architected for scalable content delivery. The results has been a
proliferation of proprietary protocols and ad hoc mechanism to meet the
growing content demand.

As part of the TRIAD architecture, we introduce an explicit content
layer as a natural extension of current Internet directory and routing
system. Using name-based routing, content requests can be efficiently
directed at the closest replica server, without the need for a
centralized DNS service.


Bio     :

Mark Gritter is a PhD student, working with David Cheriton in the
Distributed Systems Group at Stanford University.


Note    :

Lunch (but no drinks) is provided for the attendees at 12:15.  The talk
