Summary:
The Internet has already become a part of our daily lives and new applications and services are being introduced day by day. Ubiquitous sensor networks or vehicle-to-vehicle communications will soon be realized to improve the quality and safety of our lives, for example. On the other hand, many issues such as scalability, congestion control, latency control, security and privacy have become increasingly important because of the increasing number of users.
In order to provide robust, reliable, flexible and comfortable networks, architectures and technologies for New Generation Network (NWGN) including ubiquitous networking and the Internet of things are being developed. Technology development aspects and technical challenges to realize the NWGN will be discussed in this session.

Summary:
There are several directions and strategies for sustainable economic development. The most important trend regarding current Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is the spread of cloud computing. The degree of its contribution to the growth of the global economy is clear. Evolution of eService will be the key for deploying and utilizing cloud computing while distributed data centers employ proprietary technologies. In this session, we suggest to discuss what kind of directions regarding networks will achieve strong economic turnaround, what kind of open standards are preferred for this purpose, and what kind of role major vendors can play to enhance innovation in the current economy.

Summary:
This session will deal with various endeavors towards “greening” of the earth by using the ICT. It will review conventional approaches, e.g. e-commerce and telecommuting, as well as reducing energy consumption in other types of infrastructures, e.g. smart grid system for electric power provisioning, and other approaches, e.g. application of an RFID-based system to emission trading will be discussed. It will also cover some approaches towards “greening of the ICT” i.e. minimizing the energy consumption in the telecommunications system. Then it will try to set an interdisciplinary agenda for governmental and non-governmental organizations, e.g. to establish practical guidelines for assessing the effect of the future Internet on the climate changes, and to define the roles ICT should play for the humans to cope with this critical issue.
