Visualization of SAT-Solvers The SAT problem — determining if a formula in proposition logic is satisfiable — is decidable because you can construct a truth table. If there are n atomic propositions, there are 2^n assignments, so this is not an efficient algorithm. An efficient algorithm for SAT would solve the P=NP? problem in the affirmative, which is unlikely. However, many interesting algorithms for SAT (called SAT Solvers) have proved to be very efficient in practice. The algorithms are generally based on the DPLL (David, Putnam, Logemann, Loveland) algorithm and add sophisticated search methods and heuristics. The Master’s thesis project … Read more

Lecture on “Social networking and computer network design” 9.5. at 16:15 in A106

posted in News, Research tagged with

The recent development in computer network has enabled a rich set of Internet services and applications such email, online social networks (OSNs), and microblogging systems that are now a very important part of our daily lives. Many computer networks have dual properties. They are physical networks and at the same time human networks. It is tremendously important to exploit this social networking feature to design more efficient and more reliable communication systems. In this talk, I will illustrate, with several examples, how social networks can be integrated into system design. I will start by introducing several human mobility and social … Read more

Open M.Sc. thesis position: “Design and implementation of high-level Internet models on top of a distributed discrete event simulator”

posted in News, Open Positions, Studies

(Autumn  2012) Background: A clean-slate information-centric network (ICN) architecture for Internet is being developed in the PURSUIT EU project. The system under work includes a global rendezvous service based on hierarchical DHT consisting of thousands of nodes dispersed cover different autonomous systems. The evaluation of system of this size is difficult, as router-level simulations do not scale to the whole Internet and global prototype deployment is not feasible. Therefore, we are developing our own distributed discrete event simulator tool, that can be run in a computer cluster for large-scale models. In addition, we have been collecting and combining existing data … Read more

NETWORKING GAMES, STRONG NASH EQUILIBRIUM AND OPTIMAL ROUTING on Friday, April 27th, at 1:00 p.m. in room A106, Computer Science Building, Aalto University School of Science. Vladimir Mazalov, Prof., Ph.D., Dr. Sci. Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences Many real problems in modern networks and supercomputing such as resource distribution, scheduling and routing, spam fighting, etc. can be solved by game-theoretic methods. The players here can be the users, the jobs, the packages, etc. Networking games can be divided for two classes in respect of the traffic being divided (Wardrope games) or not (KP models) for units. … Read more
