P2P, DSM, and Other Products of the Complexity Factory
In order to get your paper accepted at a major conference, the idea you
develop in the paper must be complex, preferably even incomprehensible
to all but the few experts. In order to have your idea have any impact
in a real system, it must be simple and comprehensible to the
above-average programmer in industry. The obvious net result of this
contradiction is that very few papers at major conferences have any
impact in real systems. This talk will explore some examples of this
dilemma, some counterexamples of ideas that were successfully
transferred to practice, and some ideas on how we can perhaps improve
the situation.
