08:00-09:00 Breakfast (coffee and pastries)

09:00-10:15 Opening and Keynote

Keynote: How We Might Get Humans out of the Way
Professor Nick McKeown, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Stanford University

Abstract:
Now that network operators have taken charge of their network control planes and are in the process of taking charge of their forwarding planes, the network is becoming a top-down programmable platform for the first time. The consequences will be profound. In this talk I will describe some of the consequences and explain why I think networks in 10 years will be very different from today.

Speaker bio:
Nick McKeown has been a Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Stanford University since 1995. In 2005 he started the Clean Slate Program at Stanford, which with Martin Casado and Scott Shenker led to "Software Defined Networking". He co-founded Nicira (now part of VMware), Abrizio and Nemo ("Network Memory", now part of Cisco), as well as ONF, ON.Lab and P4.org. In 2013, he also co-founded Barefoot Networks, which was recently acquired by Intel. His current passion is to move the network data-plane from fixed-function hardware up and into software where it belongs. He hopes this will foster much faster innovation in networking, and finally hand over the keys to those who own and operate networks, to customize them to best suit their needs.
Nick is a member of the US National Academy of Engineering (NAE), the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering (UK). He received the British Computer Society Lovelace Medal (2005), the IEEE Kobayashi Computer and Communications Award (2009), the ACM Sigcomm Lifetime Achievement Award (2012), and an Honorary Doctorate from ETH (Zurich, 2014).
