Chapter Meetups
Named Data Networking
Our next paper is "Named Data Networking" by Zhang, Afanasyev, Burke, et al.
*Named Data Networking (NDN) is one of five projects funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation under its Future Internet Architecture Program. NDN has its roots in an earlier project, Content-Centric Networking (CCN), which Van Jacobson first publicly presented in 2006. The NDN project investigates Jacobson’s proposed evolution from today’s host-centric network architecture (IP) to a data-centric network architecture (NDN).*

C-Store: A Column-Oriented DBMS
Our next paper is "C-Store: A Column-Oriented DBMS" by Stonebraker et al.
Continuing further with our theme of data, we'll be discussing the paper that introduced columnar data stores.
As usual, we'll be meeting at the [PDX Code Guild](https://pdxcodeguild.com/), and then afterwards we'll pick a place to get a bite and a drink together.

Delta Lake: High-Performance ACID Storage in Cloud Object Stores
Our next paper is "Delta Lake: High-Performance ACID Table Storage over Cloud Object Stores" by Armbrust et al.
Continuing with our theme of data, we'll be discussing modern techniques to build high-performance yet still ACID-compliant table stores on top of non-ACID-compliant key-value cloud systems like AWS S3.
As usual, we'll be meeting at the [PDX Code Guild](https://pdxcodeguild.com/).
Anupam Upadhyay will be leading the discussion, thanks Anupam!
…Making Programs Forget
Our next paper is "Making Programs Forget: Enforcing Lifetime for Sensitive Data" by Kannan, Altekar, Maniatis, and Chun.
This should make a nice contrast to our last paper which was about how to preserve the changes made by a group of distributed editors. Modern software needs to both remember and forget!
As before we'll be meeting at the PDX Code Guild.
…A Conflict-Free Replicated JSON Datatype
For the first meeting of the reactivated chapter of Papers We Love: PDX we are going to discuss "A Conflict-Free Replicated JSON Datatype" by Martin Kleppmann and Alastair R. Beresford.
[CRDTs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conflict-free_replicated_data_type) are relatively recent data types designed for collaborative, distributive editing of shared documents, even while sometimes offline.
This paper should be a good introduction to CRDTs. You can find it at: [https://arxiv.org/pdf/1608.03960.pdf](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1608.03960.pdf).
The event will be held at the [PDX Code Guild](https://pdxcodeguild.com/).
