NET-2017-09-1 - Proceedings of the Seminars "Future Internet" (FI) and "Innovative Internet Technologies and Mobile Communications" (IITM), Summer Semester 2017

We are pleased to present you the proceedings of our seminars on "Future Internet" (FI) and "Innovative Internet Technologies and Mobile Communication" (IITM) which took place in the Summer Semester 2017. Today, an increasing number of devices from personal private networks and critical infrastructure is connected to the global and public network. A new class of attacks on those systems can be observed: specifically tailored to the system and with a high technical level those attacks last for months or even years. Continuous data leaks or malicious changes in the system behaviour cause significant damage until they are discovered. For the first time, we offered a special session that dealt with the so-called Advanced Persistent Threats. All published papers are written in English.

We honoured the best paper of each seminar with an award. This semester the award in the IITM seminar was given to Mr. Helge Brügner who analysed the Holt-Winters algorithm for its applicability to traffic prediction in his paper "Holt-Winters Traffic Prediction on Aggregated Flow Data". In the FI seminar, the award was given to Mr. Claes Wendelin for his paper "Malware Detection in Secured Systems" wherein he presents an overview to malware and the mechanisms to detect it. Some of the talks were recorded and published on our media portal https://media.net.in.tum.de.

In the seminar FI we dealt with issues and innovations in network research. The following topics were covered:

• Performance Models of Network Interconnect Devices
• Location Privacy Preserving Mechanisms
• Detecting load balancers in the Internet

Recordings can be accessed on https://media.net.in.tum.de/#%23Future%20Internet%23SS17.

In the seminar IITM we dealt with different topics in the area of network technologies, including mobile communication networks. The following topics were covered:

• Holt-Winters Traffic Prediction on Aggregated Flow Data
• Using the blockchain to add automated financial incentives to the Public Key Infrastructure
• An introduction to Public and Private Distributed Ledgers
• Challenges for Modelling of Software-based Packet Processing in Commodity-Hardware using Queueing Theory
• Network Anomaly Detection

Recordings can be accessed on https://media.net.in.tum.de/#%23IITM%23SS17.

In the special session on Advanced Persistent Threats the following topics were covered:

• Defense Techniques against Advanced Persistent Threats
• Strategies for Malware in Cyber Conflicts
• Malware Detection in Secured Systems

We hope that you appreciate the contributions of these seminars. If you are interested in further information about our work, please visit our homepage https://net.in.tum.de.
