the
Iran Telecommunication Research Center (ITRC). The Symposium will be
sponsored by IEEE, IEE and ICT. It aims to provide a broad international
forum as well as an
outstanding opportunity for scientific researchers, academicians and
telecommunication engineers to discuss new and emerging technologies,
progress in standards, services and their applications in telecommunication
and information systems. The event will feature world- renowned plenary
speakers, tutorial presentations and focused mini-symposia.

Scope:
Topics to be addressed include, but are not limited to the following:
Social implications of telecommunications
Signal processing for communications
Personal communication networks and systems
Broadband ISDN and ATM high- speed networks and systems
New network services and applications
Network management
Network architectures and standards
Intelligent networks and communications software systems
Electronic commerce
IP Telephony
Multimedia (speech, image and video) communications
Interconnection networks

A more Focused Mini- Symposium Will be Organized By Dr. Guy Omidyar

Mini- Symposium on Mobile and Wireless Communication Networks:
Integration of fixed and portable wireless access technologies and mobility
features into fixed and mobile IP networks is a new paradigm. This approach
presents a cost effective and efficient way to provide seamless end- to- end
connectivity and ubiquitous access. This wireless market has grown rapidly
and is expected to generate billions of dollars in revenues. The deployment
of broadband cellular- based technologies including demand for internet
mobility and their integration with emerging Broadband Wireless Access
Networks (BWANs) are becoming increasingly important. Mobility and
connection management, location management, connection establishment,
quality of service, provisioning for voice, video, image and data are some
of the focus areas of this Mini- symposium.
Contributions from standardization and research consortiums are accepted on
mobile, satellite and personal communication- from 3 rd to 4 th generations,
Wireless Applications Protocols (WAP), 3GPP and UMTS/ IMT2000. Topics to be
covered in the technical session of this Mini- Symposium include but are not
limited to:
Models of mobile and wireless networks
Performance analysis and design of wireless systems.
Wireless tele- traffic study and traffic characterization and management
Wireless LAN architectures
Radio interface
Mobility management and roaming
Mobile multimedia networking
Wireless security
Wireless in the local loops
Wireless and mobile cellular internet
Mobile and wireless ATM networks
Multiple access techniques
Experimental mobile and wireless networks and trials
Satellite network architecture
Signal processing for wireless
