Invited talk: Developing, Implementing, and Using Wireless Mesh Networks
|
Axel Neumann is visiting NET group and gives a talk on "Developing, Implementing, and Using Wireless Mesh Networks" He received his Dipl.-Ing. degree in Electrical Engineering from Technical University Berlin and has been involved in a couple of projects on wireless mesh networks. He is a key designer and implementor of the B.A.T.M.A.N.(BETTER APPROACH TO MOBILE ADHOC NETWORKING) protocol. |

Title: Developing, Implementing, and Using Wireless Mesh Networks
Date: 28th January 2009, 14:00, room IFI 3.101. Speaker: Axel Neumann Abstract: Despite hundreds of promising new proposals for Ad-Hoc Routing Protocols, ninety nine percent of the existing community mesh-networks are using a modified (even simplified) version OLSR. Some are even using good old BGP/OSPF. This gap between academic proposals and de-facto usage can be narrowed by combining research and development activities with continual prototyping and usability evaluation in real-live environments. This talk provides recommendations for planning and implementing a WMN to provide usable communication infrastructures and at the same time assist research and development in the field of MANET. Preliminary considerations are ranging from potential alternatives to expected outcome and requirements, HW/OS choices, deployment, routing protocols, user integration, evaluation and maintainace tools. It discusses how to detect and handle typical pitfalls and contradictions between the scientific, the real-live, and the users view on the network. |
