I can strongly recommend this lecture to anyone interested in building wireless ip networks that configure the routing automatically - AKA mesh networks. Thomas Clausen is _the_ guru of mesh networks.
fra Advanced topics in MANETs lecture series at funkfeuer.at TITLE OLSRv2 status report and finetuning of the new RFC to the needs of community wifi networks. Who? Thomas Clausen When? Wednesday, Aug 13 2008, 7pm Where? www.metalab.at, Rathausstrasse 6, A-1010 Vienna, (http://metalab.at/wiki/Lage) Announced presence: Henning Rogge, core commiter at www.olsr.org T. Clausen, one of the authors of RFC 3626 (OLSR) - which is being used as the mesh routing protocol in Funkfeuer.at, Freifunk.net, Athens Metropolitan Network and many other community networks in the world as well as in industry , will give a small talk in front of funkfeuer.at and interested mesh network researchers. OLSR is probably *the* most widely deployed proactive mesh protocol worldwide apart from proprietary US .mil mesh networks. Thomas Clausen will describe the upcoming OLSR v2 RFC which can accomodate many features requested by the user community and also fine tune things with folks from funkfeuer.at based on our needs.
