The Algorithms & Randomness Center (ARC) in the College of Computing welcomes Howard Karloff of AT&T Research for a colloquium on "Disjoint-Path Facility Location: Theory and Practice."
Abstract:
Internet service providers hope to provide their customers with superior Internet connectivity, but do they always do so? How can an ISP even know what quality of service it's providing to its customers? To this end, researchers recently proposed a new scheme an ISP could use in order to estimate the packet loss rates experienced by its customers.
