演講大綱:

With the rapid advance of mobile communications and computing technologies, mobile devices now serve as the universal platform of intelligent mobile networking and computing. In this talk, we will first introduce network coding for mobile caching. In contrast to most network coding literature relying on multicast/broadcast, our approach seamless integrates network coding in the current mobile client/server architecture and requires no modification on the existing wireless/wireline network infrastructure. Afterward, we will introduce a new collaborative search framework with mobile devices for disaster rescue and patrol, which still mostly rely on manual coordination nowadays. A 3-approximation algorithm will be present to search an area with the minimum time, together with a distributed algorithm to properly handle dynamic load balancing after the search starts. Finally, we will introduce group formation in social networks. Social, spatial, and temporal dimensions are jointly explored to find the optimal group for automatic activity planning, while implementation on Facebook and Google Maps will also be presented.
