Resumo: The advent of network softwarization through Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (VFV) is opening up interfaces to historically proprietary networking devices, enabling improved orchestration and agility, lower cost of operations and most importantly, a new wave of innovation. Networking and open source have been strange bedfellows for some time and a rich ecosystem of open source projects around SDN and NFV exist today. In this talk, we look at the state and role of open source as key enabling technologies towards the trend of network softwarization from a commercial perspective and from an academic research viewpoint. In addition to a primer on SDN and NFV, the talk will present past and ongoing experiences (e.g., RouteFlow, libfliud, Mininet-WiFi) along open source inspired agile research practices within INTRIG at FEEC/UNICAMP.

Sobre o palestrante: Christian Esteve Rothenberg is an Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Electrical & Computer Engineering (FEEC) at University of Campinas (UNICAMP), Brazil, where he received his Ph.D. (2010) and currently leads the Information & Networking Technologies Research & Innovation Group (INTRIG). His research activities span all layers of distributed systems and network architectures and are often carried in collaboration with academia and industry (e.g., Ericsson, Samsung, CPqD) around the world, leading to multiple open source networking projects (e.g., RouteFlow, libfluid, ofsoftswitch13, Mininet-WiFi) in the areas of SDN and NFV among other scientific results. Christian has two international patents and over 70 publications in scientific journals and top-tier networking conferences including SIGCOMM and INFOCOM. Christian worked as Senior Research Scientist in the areas of IP systems and networking at CPqD R&D Center (2010-2013), and holds the Telecommunication Engineering degree from the Technical University of Madrid (ETSIT - UPM), Spain, and the M.Sc. (Dipl. Ing.) degree in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology from the Darmstadt University of Technology (TUD), Germany, 2006.
