Summer Retreat 2005
Objectives
The research group ”Computer Networks and Distributed Systems” of the Institute of Computer Science and Applied Mathematics at the University of Bern, headed by Prof. Torsten Braun, organized an internal retreat from June 27-30, 2005 at Griesalp / Kiental. The focus of this retreat was to present and discuss recent research results and currently ongoing research activities of the research group members. The research group members gave eleven presentations, most of them in the areas overlay networks, wireless mesh and ad hoc networks as well as sensor networks. Extensive time (typically 90 minutes per talk) has been allocated to allow detailed presentations and discussions. This technical report summarizes the various talks and describes mostly unpublished work that is currently in progress.
Venue
The event took place at the Hotel Griesalp in Kiental, CH-3723, Switzerland
