Fifth
Annual Workshop on Advanced Networking
Pasadena
Westin Hotel
191 North Los Robles Avenue, Pasadena, CA 91101
Friday, May 20, 2005
Sponsored by Caltech's Lee Center and Qualcomm
Ubiquitous communication and computing technologies are changing the world. Online communities, e-commerce, e-service, and distance learning are a few of the consequences of these technologies. The Caltech Center for Advanced Networking will develop new applications and technology with global impact. The Center has been established by a donation from the David and Ellen Lee Foundation. Our goal is the creation of a world wide distributed computing system that connects people and appliances through wireless and high-bandwidth wired channels and a backbone of computers that serve as databases and object servers. This is a multi-disciplinary challenge, with issues in modeling and protocols, circuits and coding, and propagation and antennas. Our application space includes e-commerce and e-service as well as education and collaboration among scientists in virtual laboratories. Our system is a universal information space in which collections of people can discover each other, find information and appliances that they need for collaboration, carry out data-intensive collaborations, regardless of where people are geographically or whether they are mobile or stationary.
