Separation in Networks -- A Network Coding Perspective
Professor Michelle Effros
California Institute of Technology
November 14, Friday
11 AM
Engineering Tower 331
ABSTRACT
Network coding, pioneered by Ahlswede, Cai, Li and Yeung, is by now
established as a tool in the operation of networks. The topic of this
talk is the interaction of network coding principles with noisy
channels. In the case of a multicast connection, this interaction has
been studied by Song, Yeung, Cai and separately by Borade. In this
talk we extend the separation results to arbitrary networks of
point-to-point channels. Moreover we consider networks that include
some simple multi-point to multi-point channels and provide bounds on
their performance under separation.
