Big congrats to my PhD students Yunming Xiao, Sen Lin, and Yibo Zhao (Boston U.), for winning the Best Student Paper Award at EuroSys'24! The paper proposes "Snatch," the first system to enable online streaming analytics at the network edge, either at an edge ISP or an edge CDN server. The key mechanism proposed is semantic cookie, which directly contains user features (data).This is contrary to "classical" web cookies, which hold index to the data. This "tiny" change "turns the world upside down," and enables many good things to happen. More details in the video below. We're grateful to the National Science Foundation (NSF), and our manager Deep Medhi, for funding this research. https://lnkd.in/gAf6-xGt
