Brief Bio Michael J. Freedman is an Assistant
Professor in the Computer Science Department at Princeton University.
His research broadly focuses on distributed systems, networking, and
security, and has led to commercial products and deployed systems
reaching millions of users daily. Honors include a Presidential Early
Career Award (PECASE), Sloan Fellowship, NSF CAREER Award, ONR
Young Investigator Award, and DARPA CSSG membership.
Bio
Michael J. Freedman is an Assistant Professor in the
Computer Science Department at Princeton University, with a research
focus on distributed systems, networking, and security. Prior to that
he received his Ph.D. in computer science from NYU's Courant Institute
and his S.B. and M.Eng. degrees from MIT. He developed and operates
several self-managing systems -- including CoralCDN, a decentralized
content distribution network, and DONAR, a server resolution system
powering the FCC's Consumer Broadband Test -- which serve millions of
users daily. Other research has included software-defined and
service-centric networking, cloud storage and data management, untrusted
cloud services, fault-tolerant distributed systems, virtual world
systems, peer-to-peer systems, and various privacy-enhancing and
anti-censorship systems. Freedman's work on IP geolocation and
intelligence led him to co-found Illuminics Systems, which was acquired
by Quova (now part of Neustar) in 2006. His work on programmable
enterprise networking (Ethane) helped form the basis for the OpenFlow /
software-defined networking architecture. Honors include a Presidential
Early Career Award (PECASE), Sloan Fellowship, NSF CAREER Award, Office
of Naval Research Young Investigator Award, and DARPA Computer Science
Study Group membership.
Longer Bio
Michael J. Freedman is an Assistant Professor in the Computer Science
Department at Princeton University, with a research focus on distributed
systems, networking, and security. Prior to that, he received his
Ph.D. in computer science from NYU's Courant Institute and his S.B. and
M.Eng. degrees from MIT.
Freedman developed and operates several self-managing systems, including
CoralCDN, a decentralized content distribution network that serves
millions of users daily since 2004. Other research has included
software-defined networking, service-centric networking and
next-generation end-host stacks, cloud storage and data management,
untrusted cloud services, fault-tolerant distributed systems, virtual
world systems, peer-to-peer systems, and various privacy-enhancing,
anti-censorship, and anti-spam systems.
During a two-year research appointment at Stanford, Michael's work on IP
geolocation and intelligence led him to co-found Illuminics Systems,
which was acquired by Quova (now part of Neustar) in 2006. His work on
programmable enterprise networking (Ethane) helped form the basis for
the OpenFlow/SDN architecture being standardized by the Open Networking
Foundation. His work on locality/load-based server selection (DONAR)
provides name resolution for services on the Measurement Lab testbed,
including those powering the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)'s
Consumer Broadband Test.
Honors include the Presidential Early Career Award (PECASE, nominated by
NSF), Alfred P. Sloan Fellowship, NSF CAREER Award, Office of Naval
Research Young Investigator Award, DARPA Computer Science Study Group
membership, Princeton’s Emerson Electric Company / E. Lawrence Keyes
Faculty Advancement Award, the Janet Fabri Prize for best NYU PhD thesis
in CS, NDSEG and NSF graduate fellowships, and award papers at SIGCOMM,
USENIX Security, Eurocrypt, CCS, and LADIS. He has served on the
technical program committees for SOSP, OSDI, SIGCOMM, NSDI, IEEE
Security, CCS, HotOS, USENIX, and other top conferences. His research
is funded by the National Science Foundation, DARPA, Office of Naval
Research, GENI Project Office, Sloan Foundation, Princeton's Grand
Challenges Program, Cisco Systems, Intel, and Google.
