Some of you will probably be at @ACM_SIGCOMM in Denver next week?
I won't be but you should say Hi to two of my students, Ghazal and Pavani!
Ghazal will be presenting at the NetNeg workshop about some limitations we ran into in trying to do proactive predictions for the classic mice/elephant flow networking problem She is also looking for jobs, so definitely talk to her if you're interested in hiring someone with experience using data mining and ML techniques to solve problems using datasources such as network traces: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ghazal-abdollahi-b3206a2a9/
Pavani does a lot of work with low-level network programming, especially P4. She has dealt with what I consider to be some of the most painful networking technologies to get actually working; in addition to P4 (on real switches) she's worked with FPGA NICs, dpdk, and RDMA. She has a couple pieces of work that are or will be under submission, but is looking for some more ideas. She'll be at the N2Women workshop, too. https://pavanikuppili.github.io/
