Thomas Belote, Wireless Mesh Networking

As a grad student at SJSU, Thomas has worked on Wireless Mesh Networking and Mobile Ad Hoc Networking. The talk will compare solutions like OLSR and Microsoft's sorta open source Mesh Connectivity Layer (though it doesn't run on Linux). He will discuss why WDS is not sufficient and a mesh protocol is needed, and discuss the lack of openness thus far in 802.11s even though it is included in the OLPC, as well as security issues that I am still currently researching.
