As the fundamental
infrastructure to the information age, networking and communications
have remained one of the most vibrant areas of stimulating technology
development. We have been about to see the tomorrow’s picture of
networking and communications, that is, convergence of diversified
networks, integration of IP based core network and flexible robust
wireless access, self-organization and self-management, on-demand
service oriented architectures, to just mention a few striking
characteristics.
Topics of particular interest include (but
not limited to) the followings.
