Wireless Communications, Networks and Systems Symposium: covers mobility, routing for multihop, multimedia QoS and traffic management, cross-layer optimization, MAC and emerging physical layer technologies (UWB, MIMO) for high speed wireless networking.
Optical Communications, Networks and Systems Symposium: covers WDM technologies, Ethernet and MPLS integration into the optical layer, Next-Generation SONET/SDH, as well as SAN extensions over DWDM/SONET/SDH, Optical and WDM communication systems and cross-layer design.
General Symposium: covers theory and algorithms of networking such as routing, congestion control, traffic engineering, peer-to-peer/overlay and security; architectures and protocols such as VPLS, SIP and IMS; and applications and services such as L2/L3 VPNs, VoIP, IPTV, content services and location-based services.
The final program is available on the website.
