Just out of curiosity, why haven't you included any of the classic papers? Is there a prior course which discusses those works?

Seminars are often about current topics. If you look at his 2015 and 2016 lists they're entirely different papers.

I've been in seminars where they re-read the 'classics' for the Nth time. The professor first offers a benediction for each paper after which the class engages in a Gregorian call and response chant.

In one class, the first response papers savaged a classic and when the professor arrived for class visibly shaken, he suggested perhaps waiting until the next class to give us sometime to think about it.

I like the trend towards taming async networks, like the nopaxos paper which show's what's possible when the network layer provides a total order on client requests.

Seems not completely unrelated to prior work to turn async networks into timed-async networks like with Spanner.
