The UCLA IRL brings together a diverse group of cutting edge network research projects. All IRL projects aim to provide solutions for problems encountered in today's Internet as well as systems which implement those solutions. All IRL projects are overseen by Lixia Zhang and conducted via the generous contributions of our sponsors .
Some projects are joint efforts with other research groups.
The IRL delivers publications, systems, and, most importantly, ideas . To avoid the high overhead of having hosts performing the measurements individually, we seek to provide a scalable architecture for such a service of distance information. This is a joint project with researchers at other research institutions . The project investigates and demonstrates novel methods for efficiently sharing the content produced during collaborative interactions among internetworked users. We introduce the notion of a shared interaction infrastructure as a mechanism for collecting, indexing, and disseminating the information produced in collaborative sessions.
