Hi everyone,
  Some visitors from Verizon last week were very interested in cloudlets.
Also visitors from Crown Castle (http://crowncastle.com)
This morning the Verizon visitors sent me this URL that they had just seen:

Great interview, fully aligned with our vision of cloudlets. Of course,
Victor has been proponent of our vision right from the beginning
including being a  coauthor on the 2009 paper that started it all (attached).
The interview mentions a keynote talk entitled 
“Cloud 2020: The Emergence of Micro Datacenters for Mobile Computing.”
The slides are here: http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/bahl/Present/Bahl_mDC_Keynote_May.pdf
Well aligned with us, and has additional results for use in confirming the value of cloudlets.

It's great to see how much mindshare we now have in our concept of
cloudlets and edge computing.

  Cheers
                    -- Satya
