  Algorithms for High Speed Network Data Processing 


    Spring 2009 CSE Colloquium Series <http://www.cse.msu.edu/?Pg=143&Col=2>


      Dr. Sailesh Kumar
      <http://www.cisco.com/web/about/ac50/ac207/crc_new/index.html>

Engineer

Friday, February 27
11:00 AM - 12:00 PM
3105 Engineering Building

Host: Alex Liu <http://www.cse.msu.edu/%7Ealexliu/>


      Abstract

Modern networks process and forward an increasingly large volume of 
traffic; the rate of growth of the traffic often outpaces the 
improvements in the processor, memory and software technology. In order 
for networking equipment to maintain an acceptable performance, there is 
a need for architectural enhancements and novel algorithms that can 
efficiently implement the various network features. In this talk, I will 
present a number of algorithms and data-structures for efficiently 
implementing various critical network features and achieving high speed 
packet processing.


      Biography

Sailesh Kumar performs research activities in computer networks with the 
focus on developing high performance algorithms and architectures for 
content aware network services. He works at Cisco Research where he is 
responsible for developing new technologies in content networking both 
internally and in collaboration with academic universities. Sailesh 
earned his PhD (2004-2007) at Washington University under guidance of 
Prof. Jon Turner, and has co-authored a number of widely cited research 
papers. Before 2004, Sailesh worked at start-up Paxonet Communications 
(acquired by Conexant Systems), where he developed ASIC components for 
high speed telecom networks. Earlier, Sailesh received his Bachelor's of 
Technology degree from Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur in India.
