COMPUTING RESEARCH HIGHLIGHT OF THE WEEK [June 16- June 21]
Jellyfish: Networking Data Centers Randomly
While computer network designers have traditionally adhered to carefully planned, symmetrical structures, a team of computer science researchers at the University of Illinois is proposing the exact opposite: complete randomization of the network topology.
Ph.D. students Ankit Singla and Chi-Yao Hong, computer science professor Brighten Godfrey, and Lucian Popa of HP Labs are working together working together on the project, called “Jellyfish”. The project harnesses randomized networks to increase flexibility in network growth over time, and to achieve high network capacity at low cost.
