Student Blog: Examining optical wireless communications

KAUST ·

A KAUST student blog post discusses optical wireless communications (OWC) as a solution to radio frequency exhaustion. OWC uses optical frequencies to carry electrical signals, offering advantages like high data rates and immunity to electromagnetic interference. Free-space optical (FSO) communication, a type of OWC, is applicable for inter-building connections and has seen use cases such as broadcasting during the 2010 FIFA World Cup. Why it matters: OWC research and deployment in the region can support high-bandwidth applications and provide cost-effective connectivity solutions, especially in challenging environments or disaster scenarios.

Problems in network archaeology: root finding and broadcasting

MBZUAI ·

This article discusses a talk by Gábor Lugosi on "network archaeology," specifically the problems of root finding and broadcasting in large networks. The talk addresses discovering the past of dynamically growing networks when only a present-day snapshot is observed. Lugosi's research interests include machine learning theory, nonparametric statistics, and random structures. Why it matters: Understanding the evolution and origins of networks is crucial for various applications, including analyzing social networks, biological systems, and the spread of information.
