Fresh Start Internet -- a study of future possible directions This course is an introductory graduate course designed for students who have had an undergraduate course in networking. There is an emerging belief that the current Internet has significant deficiencies that need to be solved in-order to establish the universal communications system of the future. It is likely that the Internet's shortcomings will not be fixed by the conventional incremental and 'backward-compatible' style of current academic and industrial networking research. This course will focus on unconventional, and long-term technology and ideas that try to break the network's ossification. We will ask and examine several key questions. With what we know today about the evolving technologies and the problems of the current internet, what will likely be the fresh design of a network that will service the world in 2015? The course will attack these issues by the examination of key future looking technologies through papers and visiting lectures, live and via video conferencing, given by leaders in the field.
