The use of AI/ML techniques in networking has generated a lot of excitement and recent research. This panel will bring together researchers working at the AI/networking boundary to reflect on the problems and types of problems that can be successfully addressed by AI/ML techniques. The panelists will discuss areas where AI/ML may offer particularly fruitful opportunities, and the characteristics (timescales, available data, intra-versus-inter network, layers in the protocol stack, management?) of these areas, and what special networking support (if any) is needed for platforms supporting such uses of AI/ML in networking.
