 TECHNICAL PROGRAM
Prof. R. Srikant of UIUC
and Larry Dunn of Cisco will be plenary speakers at PFLDnet2007.
For the first time, PFLDnet will host a tutorial. This tutorial will be given by
Prof. Steven Low, Professor at Caltech and CEO of
FastSoft, with a tentative title of "Flow control theory for practitioners", on the morning of
Friday February 9th, 2007 .
Regular talks will be 20 minutes, with 5 minutes for questions and change-over.
On Friday afternoon, February 9, 2007, PFLDnet2007 delegates are welcome to a complimentary site visit at WAN-in-Lab in Netlab, Caltech. A shuttle bus is has been arranged for those need transport to WAN-in-Lab site visit from ISI.
