讲座题目：Massively Distributed Systems: from Cluster/Grid to P2P/Cloud Computing over The Interne
本次讲座纳入研究生读书报告。
Abstract: In this talk, Dr. Hwang addresses recent advances in Internet technology and emerging innovative applications. He will evaluate the rapidly growing trend in building massively distributed systems to solve complex problems and to upgrade web services in daily-life applications. The talk will assess the evolutional changes from multicomputer clusters and computational Grids to peer-to-peer (P2P) networks and cloud computing paradigms. He will cover distributed computing models, technological advances, and the demand of quantum jump in distributed supercomputing and web services. He will identify research frontiers and elaborate on projects by industrial competitors in new challenges on Internet clouds and web-scale supercomputing and innovative applications.
Biographical Sketch: Dr. Kai Hwang is a Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and Director of Internet and P2P/Grid Computing Laboratory at the University of Southern California (USC). He received the Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from the University of California, Berkeley in 1972. Prior to joining USC in 1985, he has taught at Purdue University for many years. He has served as a visiting Chair Professor during his sabbatical visits at University of Minnesota (1989), National Taiwan University (1992), and University of Hong Kong (1996-99). Currently, he is on sabbatical leave from USC, serving as a Chief Scientist at the Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences and a Visiting Professor at Peking University, Beijing, China.
An IEEE Fellow, he specializes in computer architecture, parallel processing, Internet security, and distributed computing systems. He has published 5 books and over 200 scientific papers in these areas. The CiteSeer.Continuity has ranked him at the top 0.25% of the mostly cited authors out of 790,329 Computer Science authors. He is the founding Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Parallel and Distributed Computing. He is also on the Editorial Board of IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed System. He has chaired numerous ACM/IEEE International Conferences and presented two dozens of keynote addresses in these meetings. He has lectured worldwide and performed advisory work for IBM Fishkill, Intel Scalable System Division, MIT Lincoln Lab., JPL in Caltech, ETL in Japan, Academia Sinica in China, GMD in Germany, and ENRIA in France.
