Abstract:
Big data has become the cornerstone of the revolution in computing systems that 
is transforming how network and security infrastructure, services, and 
applications are designed and deployed. Many conventional wisdoms on which we 
have based the designs of existing network and security systems are either not 
well understood or they are simply outdated due to the rapidly changing nature 
of workloads, performance metrics, and user requirements.

In this talk, I will discuss how to revisit the current practices for the 
design and deployment of network and security systems using a combination of 
empirical and theoretical methods by first measuring and characterizing the 
trends in real-world data and then modeling the identified trends. I will also 
provide several examples related to mobile cellular networks, content 
distribution networks, and online social networks.

Biography: Zubair is a 5th-year Ph.D. candidate at Michigan State University. He received the best paper award from 2012 IEEE International Conference on Network Protocols. He also received the 2013 Fitch-Beach Outstanding Graduate Research Award by College of Engineering, Michigan State University. His research interests focus on big data measurement and analytics for networking and security systems.
