SUMMARY:Can I be your disruption-tolerant friend? - Tristan Henderson (Uni

DESCRIPTION:Disruption-tolerant\, delay-tolerant\, or pocket-switched netw
 orking architectures are popular ways of exploiting human connectivity to 
 build new mobile ad hoc networks and applications.\nMuch work has involved
  looking at ways of detecting community structure in human social networks
  to better route information through these DTNs. An alternative method mig
 ht be to exploit the known existing community structure\; i.e.\, a user's 
 self-reported social network. This talk will present some experimental res
 ults which indicate that self-reported social networks can be used for DTN
  routing\, and go on to discuss our new work looking at the privacy issues
  in these social/DTN applications and networks.\n\nBio: Tristan Henderson 
 is a Lecturer in Computer Science at the University of St Andrews. His res
 earch interests centre around understanding how people use networked syste
 ms\; so far this has involved network measurement\, networked games\, mobi
 le computing\, wireless security and privacy.  He has an MA from Cambridge
 \, an MSc and PhD from UCL and can be found on the WWW at http://www.cs.st
