Today I thought I would check out Google's Patent search. I know from Nick Feamster's CV that he has an application for, "Method and system design for detecting and responding to attacking networks" US Patent application #11/538,212. Besides finding that I ended up stumbling across more citation information. 2 other US patent applications cited work done by Nick Feamster. The 1st "Systems methods and devices for managing routing" US Pat. 11/270843 cited 4 of his articles. They were:
-Detecting BGP configuration faults with static analysis which appeared May of 2005 in Proc. 2nd Symposium on Networked System Design and Implementation (NSDI)
-Design and implementation of a routing control platform also from May of 2005 in Proc. 2nd Symposium on Networked System Design and Implementation (NSDI) SIGMETRICS
-A model of BGP routing for network engineering from June of 2004 in Proc. ACM SIGMETRICS
-The case for separating routing from routers from September 2004 in ACM SIGCOMM workshop on Future Directions in Network Architecture
The other patent for "Method for Managing a streaming media service" cited, Field-to-Frame transcoding with temporal and spatial downsampling from October of 1999 in IEEE International Conference on Image Processing
All of these articles are available from the publications part of Nick's website. This brings up the question - Can you get all of his articles from there? There are many available there, but some aren't; for instance the article, Can great research be taught? Independent research with cross-disciplinary thinking and broader impact, caught my attention. This can be found in March of 2008's ACM SIGCSE [special interest group on computer science education] Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education. If you are a member of ACM you can access all of their materials for free. I'm not so I can't.
Many of the other sources Nick publishes in can be accessed either directly from websites (either his or the organization's in which it was published). USENIX for instance is open access to all.
google patent search!! marvelous! I had also been running into problems with memberships and access. My scientists website at MIT does have full text of most of her publications, but it still does not coontain articles that were only part of popular magazines / newspapers. I've found that simply 'googling' for the articles or the scientist's name brings up more. Although access is still sometimes partially or fully restricted.
