They build on a recent successful Dagstuhl seminar by the name \"DIY networking: an interdisciplinary perspective\", which brought together a highly diverse group of researchers and practitioners to reflect on technological and social issues related to the use of local wireless networks operating outside the public Internet. The seminar initiated a process of bridging the communication gap between those who build technology (e.g. computer scientists, engineers, and hackers) and those who understand better the complex urban environment where this technology is deployed (e.g. social and political scientists, urban planners, designers, and artists). \u0000 \u0000Now in DIYnet 2015 -- hosted by ACM MobiSys -- the participants try to make one more step toward facilitating interdisciplinary exchanges around the complex design space defined by DIY networking solutions, for a more creative interplay between technological and human networks in the city. The technical programme includes both conceptual and experiential entries with DIY networking applications, and novel scientific contributions on important technical questions. \u0000 \u0000We are also very proud to have with us key people coming from different domains that are close to the common object of enquiry: DIY networking. More specifically \u0000Michael Smyth (Edinburgh Napier University) will give a keynote talk on Urban Interaction Design, and highlight the interdisciplinary perspective of hybrid space design. \u0000Paul Dourish (University of California, Irvine) will give a second keynote talk on The Politics of Infrastructure Projects, which will bring the political dimension. \u0000Andreas Unteidig (Berlin University of the Arts) will give a demo of the \"hybrid letter box\" and introduce the design research perspective. \u0000Mathias Jud (independent artist) will give a demo of the community art project http://www.qaul.net, which has received the \"Prix Ars electronica [the next idea]\", and bring the artistic and activist perspective.","PeriodicalId":109097,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2015 Workshop on Do-it-yourself Networking: an Interdisciplinary Approach","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130169447","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We are interested in DTNs for reaching out into under-served regions in growing economies, when distributing media and videos from cities to rural areas. DTNs enable content distribution in such areas, using mobility of devices and avoiding the need for traditional network infrastructure. The content is distributed to the target destinations using buses equipped with infostations, namely wireless DTN-enabled devices. Mobile cinema entertainment, possibly combined with educational content, will be the use case. Micro-entrepreneurs in remote villages will be provided with low-complex small cinema-in-a-backpack systems, which allow them to screen the content and start with a micro-business activity around the show events. In this paper, we present our wireless infostation and the cinema-in-a-back that we have built for the purpose and ready for a six-month long field deployment in rural South Africa, in partnership with local institutions.","PeriodicalId":109097,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2015 Workshop on Do-it-yourself Networking: an Interdisciplinary Approach","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134028905","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It can help binding together communities, it provides a good means for inclusion of people as well to deliver information and local events. Video streaming in community networks is still problematic; this work describes a project for the adaptation of PeerStreamer, an open source peer-to-peer video streaming platform, to an existing Community Network in the city of Florence, Italy. The paper exposes the motivations that make PeerStreamer a perfect match with the philosophy and the technical features of a community network and describes how the community network of Florence can be a very good testbed given the mixture of technical and social skills that animate it. The proposed adaptation and implementation exploits a so-far underused feature of PeerStreamer: the possibility of separating the streaming engine from the play-out part on different hosts. This feature makes it possible to install the streaming engine, which is very efficient and has a very small memory footprint, directly on the community network routing nodes, so that the streaming topology can be adapted to the community network topology by directly accessing routing information. On the other hand, the player can run on standard PCs and use standard streaming protocols to access the stream.","PeriodicalId":109097,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2015 Workshop on Do-it-yourself Networking: an Interdisciplinary Approach","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133840310","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As DIY networks do not rely on the need for backhaul Internet connectivity, these networks are mostly a mix of both offline and online networks. Although DIY networks have their own homegrown services, the current Internet-based cloud services are often useful, and access to some services could be beneficial to the community. Considering that most DIY networks have challenged Internet connectivity, migrating current service virtualisation instances could face great challenges. Service Centric Networking (SCN) has been recently proposed as a potential solution to managing services more efficiently using Information Centric Networking (ICN) principles. In this position paper, we present our arguments for the need for a resilient SCN architecture, propose a strawman SCN architecture that combines multiple transmission technologies for providing resilient SCN in challenged DIY networks and, finally, identify key challenges that need to be explored further to realise the full potential of our architecture.","PeriodicalId":109097,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2015 Workshop on Do-it-yourself Networking: an Interdisciplinary Approach","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123008042","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In densely populated areas it is possible to create heterogeneous, multihop communication paths using a combination of these technologies, and often transmit data with lower latency than via a wired Internet connection. However, the potential for sharing meshed wireless radios in this way has never been realised due to the lack of economic incentives to do so on the part of individual nodes. In this paper, we explore how virtual currencies might be used to provide an end-to-end incentive scheme to convince forwarding nodes that it is profitable to send messages on via the lowest latency mechanism available. Clients inject a small amount of money to transmit a message, and forwarding engines compete to solve a time-locked puzzle that can be claimed by the node that delivers the result in the lowest latency. Our approach naturally extends congestion control techniques to a surge pricing model when available bandwidth is low and does not require latency measurements.","PeriodicalId":109097,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2015 Workshop on Do-it-yourself Networking: an Interdisciplinary Approach","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116170600","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
