Clarifying Fog Networking
Pushing computation, control and storage into the “cloud” has been a key trend in networking in the past decade. The cloud is now “descending” to the network edge and often diffused among the client devices. The cloud is becoming the “fog.” Fog Network presents an architecture that uses one or a collaborative multitude of end-user clients or near-user edge devices to carry out storage, communication, computation, and control in a network. This talk will survey such an architecture that will support the Internet of Things, heterogeneous 5G mobile services, and home and personal area networks, and explore how fog networks may incorporate the latest advances in devices, network systems, and data science to reshape the “balance of power” in the ecosystem of computing and networking.

Agenda
Dr. Mung Chiang is the Arthur LeGrand Doty Professor of Electrical Engineering at Princeton University and the recipient of the 2013 Alan T. Waterman Award. He created the Princeton EDGE Lab in 2009 to bridge the theory-practice divide in networking by spanning from proofs to prototypes, resulting in a few technology transfers to industry, several startup companies and the 2012 IEEE Kiyo Tomiyasu Award. He serves as the inaugural Chairman of Princeton Entrepreneurship Council and the Director of Keller Center for Innovation in Engineering Education at Princeton. His Massive Open Online Courses on networking reached over 250,000 students since 2012 and the textbook received the 2013 Terman Award from American Society of Engineering Education. He was named a Guggenheim Fellow in 2014.
