Michael Mitzenmacher : Talks


I don't usually put up talks, but sometimes people ask me to, so when they do, I'll put them here. They're in Powerpoint unless otherwise noted.

  1. Cuckoo Hashing in Hardware [Allerton 2007]
    This talk covers how to use a CAM as a queue to effectively de-amortize cuckoo hashing for practical use in hardware (particularly routers).
  2. Packet Level Algorithms [DIMACS 2007]
    This (poorly named) talk was a DIMACS tutorial covering my work on hashing/Bloom filters in network architectures.
  3. Hashing and Packet Based Algorithms [Cisco 2007]
    This (still poorly named) talk was a somewhat modified version of the DIMACS tutorial I gave at Cisco covering my work on hashing/Bloom filters in network architectures.
  4. Codes for Insertion/Deletion Channels with Segmented Errors
    We have high performance linear time encodable/decodable codes for binary channels with deletions (or insertions) as long as the errors are segmented -- say, at most one error per byte. Given at ISIT 2007.
  5. Upper Bounding the Capacity of the Deletion Channel
    First non-trivial upper bound techniques (at least that I know of) for the binary iid deletion channel. Given at ISIT 2007.
  6. Beyond Bloom Filters
    All about approximate concurrent state machines (ACSMs), and new constructions of Bloom filters/counting Bloom filters. Given at Stanford, UC Santa Cruz, Stochastic Networks workshop, etc.
  7. New Results and Open Problem for Insertion/Deletion Channels
    Update of a talk given at ANALCO (and elsewhere).
  8. New Directions for Power Law Research
    Recently given at a Radcliffe workshop (and elsewhere). pdf version
  9. Digital Fountains: Applications and Related Issues
    Recently given at INFORMS (invited by Bruce Hajek); a previous version was given at ITW 2004.
