Presents:

AWiMA: An Architecture for Heterogeneous Adhoc Wireless Mobile Internet Access


DESCRIPTION/ABSTRACT:
This open seminar is part of Calit2's new Indo-US Advanced Summer School on Systems and Networks, a collaboration with the Indo-US Science and Technology Forum.

This talk suggests a system architecture for wireless wide-area networking access using adhoc networking between a mobile Client node without direct connectivity to a wireless wide-area-network and a mobile Service Provider node with connectivity to a wireless-wide-area-network. It provides a means for securely providing such adhoc wireless networking services using a Server for tunneling and routing, registration and authentication. The architecture also provides support for handoff of a Client node from one Service Provider to another with persistence of a tunnel between the Client and the Server enabling a soft-handoff. Different wireless protocols may be used for adhoc networking, with filtered interconnection of authenticated Clients implemented at a Service Provider node. The architecture is applicable across different wide-area network protocols, and provides simultaneous support for multiple wide-area-network protocols.

Guest Speaker:
Dilip Krishnaswamy, Qualcomm
Senior Staff Researcher, Corporate Research and Development

Dr. Dilip Krishnaswamy is a senior staff researcher in the office of the chief scientist at Qualcomm in San Diego. He received his B.Tech. degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering in 1991 from the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, his M.S. degree in Computer Science in 1993 from Syracuse University where he was a University Fellow, and his Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering in 1997 from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He received the best paper award for the 1997 IEEE VLSI Test Symposium. He was a Platform Architect in the Mobility Group at Intel Corporation.  At
Intel he worked on various projects including the Pentium4 processor development, system-on-chip mobile platform architectures, 3D system architectures, and cross-layer wireless multimedia optimizations in the digital home. He was the architect for Intel’s first system-on-chip Cellular processor (PXA800F/Manitoba) . He taught courses related to parallel computer architecture, and digital systems design, at the University of California, Davis, where he is on the Industrial Board of Advisors for the ECE department.  His research interests include heterogeneous wireless communication systems, 3D system architectures, parallel processing, and distributed & non-linear optimization techniques. He is the vice-chair of the IEEE Communications Society emerging technical subcommittee on Applications of Nanotechnologies in Communications. He is also the associate editor-in-chief of the IEEE Wireless Communications Magazine.
