protocols, Search technologies, Semantic web, Multicast/ broadcast
technologies, SOA/Web services, Content management, Unified communications

* Network architectures and management: NGN, System management, Quality of
service, Real time applications, Distributed systems and middleware,
Multimedia communications

The conference welcomes papers addressing technological and/or application
level issues, as well as those illustrating the impact of networking in a
societal context (e.g. commerce, communication, education).

In addition there will be three intensive workshop sessions covering
interesting and controversial topics:

* Next Generation Networks - Next Revenues? Innovative ideas within Next
Generation Networks will have a huge impact on our society. New applications
with a dynamic deployment may support the rapid development of new services
even better than before. Does this lead to new revenues as well?

* Security vs. Usability Practical evidence suggests that these are often
contradictory requirements. But do the issues have to be in competition?
What approaches could solve the problem?

* The Pedagogy of eLearning? The role of eLearning within teaching is
continuously changing. How will a varying number of factors influence the
pedagogy of eLearning? What will be the future concepts within pedagogy in
this context?
