On
January 27, 2012, Fabio Hecht, from the University of Zurich, a member of the
SESERV project, attended the 7th GI/ITG KuVS Workshop
on Future Internet, which took place at
the
Nokia-Siemens headquarters in Munich, Germany. UZH has submitted an extended
abstract entitled “LiveShift: A Time-Shifted Video Streaming Approach”, which
was accepted for presentation. Presentations targeted the general theme of
Future Internet and were diverse in terms of specific areas; most had, though,
a technical, rather than an economic point of view. While some presentations
envisioned a clean-slate approach that grants authors more freedom to create
solutions to current and future Internet issues, some participants are
skeptical to whether a complete change in the current Internet is possible,
taking into consideration, for example, the slow adoption of IPv6. The points
at which most authors and participants agree is that the Future Internet will
be increasingly distributed in terms of resources and service providers.
Therefore, several presentations targeted the use of such distributed resources
more efficiently, or ways to select among several protocols or service
providers in an optimal way. More specific information, including specific
talks, authors, abstracts, and slide presentations, can be found at
