Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Computer network
  • The Internet
  • Operating system

David Wetherall spends much of his time researching Computer network, Network packet, The Internet, Distributed computing and Computer security. His Computer network study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Wireless and Wireless network. His research integrates issues of Networking hardware, Throughput, Communication channel, Physical layer and Real-time computing in his study of Network packet.

His work carried out in the field of The Internet brings together such families of science as Reliability, Spoofing attack and Packet switching. His work deals with themes such as Policy-based routing, Link-state routing protocol, Communications protocol, Exploit and Mobile computing, which intersect with Distributed computing. His Computer security study incorporates themes from Android and IP traceback.

His most cited work include:

  • A survey of active network research (1347 citations)
  • Measuring ISP topologies with rocketfuel (1229 citations)
  • Practical network support for IP traceback (1204 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Computer network, Network packet, The Internet, Distributed computing and Computer security. His Computer network research integrates issues from Wireless and Wireless network. His Network packet research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Networking hardware, Spoofing attack, Communication channel, Real-time computing and Denial-of-service attack.

In his research on the topic of The Internet, Host is strongly related with Router. He has included themes like Routing, Overlay, Network topology, Context-aware pervasive systems and Peering in his Distributed computing study. In general Computer security study, his work on Personally identifiable information often relates to the realm of Ingress filtering, thereby connecting several areas of interest.
