Thoughts and Ramblings

General things I find of interest.

In the next year

Well, it has been a year since I wrote here. I made it though my 663 and 668 classes unscathed. I then took two 689 courses the next semester. One was on Peer to Peer networks, and the other was Fault Tolerance, a continuation of 668. Both were fun, but the P2P class required a lot of reading research papers. I enjoyed it though. Now I am taking a single 689 class on Survivable Networks.

Project and Traces

Well, this week I had to work on my project proposal for 663. I was at a near complete loss for what to do, but I put in a proposal for something combining streaming media and a peer to peer client. I have the sinking feeling that the prof will not like it, but we will see when that time comes. If he doesn’t like it, I can always propose something else and go with that.
