9.00 - 10.00 : Keynote 1 :

  • Ken Calvert, University of Kentucky, USA : Reflections on the development of Active and Programmable Networks"

"Research in Active and Programmable Networks has been ongoing for more
than ten years now.  What have we learned?  This talk will attempt to
draw some conclusions (both technical and nontechnical in nature)
based on the author's experiences in the DARPA program.  Although the
talk will be primarily backward-looking, the goal is to inform current
and future efforts to develop and deploy new network architectures of
all kinds."

9.00 - 10.00 : Keynote 2 :
Gísli Hjálmtýsson, Reykjavik University : "Architecture Challenges in Future Network Nodes"

"In this talk we will discuss our work on an active router architecture that aims at building an ideal platform for overlay based network services.
Rather than driving services onto routers, our goal is to provide service programmers with abstractions and functionality on end-systems that facilitates
service support on routers and gateways throughout the network.  As such the abstract architecture incorporates end-systems, boundary gateways, and
routers, however, isolating the details of nodal facilities from application and service programmers.  The architecture is designed to self-configure and
self-optimize each node, fully exploiting the hardware facilities at each node, and across a network of nodes, without explicit instructions from network
programmers.  We discuss the elements of the architecture, describe the components we have constructed, and discuss the challenges in realizing the
remaining components and ultimately in assembling them into an integrated network system."
