Software

ESM Broadcasting toolkit: My thesis research forms a key part of a fully operational broadcasting system based on End System Multicast. The system supports MAC,Windows and Linux, and has been used to broadcast events including Sigcomm 2002, Sigcomm 2003 and SOSP 2003. The objective is to enable even non-technical users to broadcast their own event, or tune into a current running event.
