Call for Papers International Conference on Next Generation Teletraffic and Wired/Wireless Advanced Networking (NEW2AN'04) Organized by Tampere University of Technology (Finland) and R&D Institute LONIIS (Russia) in cooperation with ITC (International Teletraffic Congress), Popov Society and IEEE St.Petersburg BT/CAS/COM Chapter February 02-06, 2004 R&D LONIIS, St.Petersburg, Russia http://www.new2an.org/ The conference -------------- Modern multimedia services pose new challenges related to the treatment of traffic within communication networks. To build next-generation telecommunication network, teletraffic theory and advanced networking must be used. The conference goal is the identification and investigation of new models, architectures and mechanisms to enable a new generation of IP networks. Special emphasis will be given to wireless networking, in particular the handling and delivery of multimedia traffic in 2.5/3G networks. Results which address collaborative problems between next generation teletraffic and advanced networking are strongly encouraged.

The conference
--------------

Modern multimedia services pose new challenges related to the
treatment of traffic within communication networks.  To build
next-generation telecommunication network, teletraffic theory and
advanced networking must be used.  The conference goal is the
identification and investigation of new models, architectures and
mechanisms to enable a new generation of IP networks.  Special
emphasis will be given to wireless networking, in particular the
handling and delivery of multimedia traffic in 2.5/3G networks.
Results which address collaborative problems between next generation
teletraffic and advanced networking are strongly encouraged.  

Since the middle of the 1990s a sequence of seminars sponsored by
International Teletraffic Congress (ITC) have been
successfully organized by the R&D Institute LONIIS in Saint
Petersburg.  The meeting point between east and west, the experience
of both can be seen and felt in the host country, city and entity - R&D
