Will P2P Users Cooperate with ISPs? A Word-of-Mouth Communication Approach
Piotr Chołda, ukończył Wydział Elektrotechniki, Automatyki, Informatyki i Elektroniki AGH w r. 2001, w r. 2006 doktoryzował się w zakresie Telekomunikacji na tym samym wydziale. Zajmuje się zagadnieniami odporności sieci telekomunikacyjnych i teleinformatycznych na uszkodzenia oraz projektowaniem sieci niezawodnych i zarządzaniem nimi. Autor 10 publikacji naukowych w recenzowanych czasopismach z Listy Filadelfijskiej. Aktywnie uczestniczył lub uczestniczy w projektach europejskich 6. i 7. Programu Ramowego. Jest redaktorem technicznym IEEE Communications Surveys and Tutorials oraz Transactions on Emerging Telecommunications Technologies (ETT), a także redaktorem kolumny recenzji książkowych w IEEE Communications Magazine. Brał aktywny udział w organizacji konferencji NGI 2008 (współprzewodniczący komitetu technicznego), IEEE ICC 2011 (współprzewodniczący komitetu technicznego sympozjum Communications QoS, Reliability and Modeling), jak również DRCN 2011 (współprzewodniczący komitetu technicznego).
Piotr Chołda graduated from AGH University of Science and Technology (Krakow, Poland) as a master of science in networking in 2001. Afterwards, he obtained a doctorate in telecommunications in 2006 from the same university. Then, he joined the Department of Telecommunications there, and now he works as an Assistant Professor.
He specializes in design of computer and communications networks. Although his background comes from technology, as he started his research in the reliability modelling and optimization of resilient multi-layer long-haul networks (like the ones based on GMPLS, that is, generalized multi-protocol label switching), later he moved towards to softer problems, like the effective provisioning of services to the network clients. Thus, he extended his interests to problems embracing the so-called Quality of Recovery (QoR), resilience-based differentiation in communications/computer networks and QoS/QoR for peer-to-peer networking. Recently, Piotr has focused on risk-based communications networking, as he perceives this area as a very promising research field, where the interface between business needs and threats from one side and the resilience technology from the other can be used to obtain a practical equilibrium where the balance between client needs and technological possibilities can be found.
Dr. Cholda is the co-author of eleven refereed journal papers and two conference tutorials. He is the recipient of the Communications QoS, Reliability and Performance Modeling Symposium Best Paper Award from ICC’06. He worked on network recovery problems in some of the 6. and 7. European Projects (IP Nobel/Nobel II, NoE EuroNGI/EuroFGI/EuroNF, SmoothIT). He was a Technical Program Committee (TPC) Co-Chair of NGI 2008 and NGI 2012, a TPC Co-Chair of Communications QoS, Reliability and Modelling Symposium at ICC 2011, and a TPC Co-Chair of DRCN 2011. Now, he serves as a TPC Co-Chair of NOMS 2014.
He is a member of editorial boards of IEEE Communications Surveys and Tutorials and Transactions on Emerging Telecommunications Technologies. He also leads the Book Review Column in IEEE Communications Magazine.
He is a member of the ACM and IEEE.
Piotr Wydrych ukończył w 2009 roku studia z zakresu Telekomunikacji w Katedrze Telekomunikacji AGH. Obecnie jest doktorantem oraz administratorem sieci w tej samej katedrze. Jego główne zainteresowania badawcze to optymalizacja działania sieci nakładkowych. Zajmuje się także badaniami w zakresie popularności usług oraz zarządzania ciągłością działania. Aktywnie uczestniczy w projektach 7. PR (SmoothIT, SmartenIT) oraz krajowych.
Piotr Wydrych received his M.Sc. degree in telecommunications from AGH University of Science and Technology, Department of Telecommunications, Krakow, Poland in 2009. Currently, he is a Ph.D. candidate, researcher, and network operations engineer at the abovementioned depart-ment. His research mainly focuses on the optimization of peer-to-peer networks’ behavior. Addi-tionally, he performs research in the fields of service popularity and business continuity plan-ning. He has actively participated in EU FP7 (SmoothIT, SmartenIT) and national projects.
