Title:
Wireless Communication Systems in Adversarial Settings: Weaknesses and Approaches to Robustness
|
| |
|
Abstract:
The future of wireless networking will be heterogeneous, making use of
various air interfaces with a wide variety of capabilities and
constraints. It will empower people through a digital environment that
is aware of their presence and context and sensitive to their needs.
Unfortunately, today's air interfaces merely co-exist and very little
has been achieved in making them co-operate to provide robust, secure,
and scalable networks. Building secure and robust wireless networks
raises several theoretical and practical problems. Solving such
problems requires novel approaches to circumvent the drastic resource
limitations of such systems. In this talk, I will review some of the major
vulnerabilities inherent to the design of current wireless networks. I
will then present specific problems and results that address some of
the issues in the wireless networks of the future. |

Professor Guevara Noubir holds a PhD is Computer Science from the Swiss
Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (1996). His research covers
both theoretical and practical aspects of secure and robust wireless
communication systems. Prior to joining Northeastern University in 2001,
he was a senior research scientist at CSEM SA (Switzerland) where he led
several research project and contributed to the definition of the third
generation Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) standardized
as 3GPP WCDMA.
Dr. Noubir held visiting research positions at Eurecom, MIT, and UNL.
He is a Senior Member of the IEEE, a member of the ACM, and a
recipient of the NSF CAREER Award.
