Abstract:
Bluetooth has been around since 1998, but most of us are still dealing with enough cables to tie ourselves in knots. Cell phones, arguably the biggest wireless success story, still don't
work very well and uses different standards on most continents.
Wireless technology has such vast potential, and so much money is being pumped into the industry, there has to be a pool of
bright individuals who can show us a map home. Discover Magazine has assembled a panel of experts to jumpstart the process. Bring your own ideas, but don't miss our panelists secrets.

Keynote
Address: Software in the Network: What Happened and Where to Go
Prof. Eric A. Brewer
UC Berkeley
Founder of Inktomi Corporation
Abstract: Starting in 1998, there were several major efforts to put flexible
software in the middle of the network; examples include web caching,
content delivery networks, overlay networks, and multimedia support.
These systems are in stark contrast to the "simple core" view that has
been a cornerstone of the traditional Internet design, but their
advantages are real -- as are their disadvantages.
In this talk I start by looking back at what worked (e.g. scalable web
caches) and what didn't (inter-AS protocols), and then look forward to
the need for software in the network and how it might get deployed.
Many challenges remain, only some of which are technical. Finally, we
look at the basic tradeoff between features and flexibility for new
services versus reliability for the existing services. |

| Abstract:
The success of wireless local-area networks (WLANs) is increasingly evident, and contrasts sharply with
the continuing delays in deployment of 3G networks worldwide. One may even start to question if cellular
architectures using 3G technologies are the most effective way to deliver high-speed wireless services
that will be desired by subscribers accustomed to ubiquitous wired broadband networks. On the other
hand, WLANs are limited to serve hot-spot areas and service providers continue to struggle with significant
roaming and security issues, which might hinder their future prospects. This panel will address a broad set
of issues and tradeoffs pertinent to using WLAN and 3G technologies for providing future wireless services.

| Abstract:
The issues to be discussed in this panel include research directions in industry and academia, and role of government with respect to directions and funding. Topics may include (but are not restricted to) the impact of VC investment during the boom years, impact of economic downturn, and possible actions by industries, academia, and government agencies. Relevant factors include outsourcing of research, short- and long-term implications of research investment by the industry, federal government, and other institutions, and issues of collaborative research. The panelists will express their views and elaborate them with examples, and case studies. |

| Abstract: Application, network, middleware, and device providers are all counting on the creation of lucrative new services to kickstart their businesses. Many pay at least lip service to openness and open standards for these services, but their definition of openness often means "if you adopt my protocols at only slightly exorbitant licensing rates." In this panel we examine some different and often contradictory approaches to enabling open services and we challenge the panelists to justify their claims or definitions of openness.
