Nick McKeown: A selection of recent talks

I post my slides (in powerpoint) to encourage re-use -- you are welcome to borrow and re-use my slides. Re-use is good! I just ask that you give due credit to me and my employer (Stanford University), and anyone who I give credit to in my slides. People often confuse slides with a "talk". To me, slides are just a visual aid -- they are not the talk. The talk is what came out of my mouth. Don't overanalyze the slides - you'll risk missing the point.
