Listen "Reducing Complexity through Interaction Surfaces"
Episode Synopsis
A recent paper on network control and management (which includes Jennifer Rexford on the author list—anything with Jennifer on the author list is worth reading) proposes a clean slate 4d approach to solving much of the complexity we encounter in modern networks. While the paper is interesting, it's very unlikely we will ever see a clean slate design like the one described, not least because there will always be differences between what the proper splits are—what should go where.
