> Scope
>
> Telecommunication infrastructures play a vital role in modern society.
> The advancements in the range of network service offerings, their
> performance, quality of service, security, and ubiquity are relentless,
> despite global economy fluctuations. The demand for high bandwidth
> network infrastructures is continuously growing within both academic
> and industrial sectors.
>
> Grid computing is one of the many examples of the new emerging paradigm
> of networking characterized by huge data traffic flows, that require
> an extremely high-performance network infrastructure. The need of high
> speed is emerging also in mobile, wireless network environments, where
> new wireless technologies promise data rates above 100 Mbps. Other high
> bandwidth network examples include community access networks, on demand
> optical networks and the Next Generation Internet.
>
> To meet these challenges, experimental activities on infrastructures,
> such as testing, verification, deployment, are pivotal for academic
> researchers, developers, service managers and providers, as well as for
> end users.
> The management of research infrastructures is increasingly dependent
> on a business model that optimizes their operational price/performance
> ratio. For example, access to experimental infrastructures for 
> real-life
> applications by specific user communities would benefit all the
> stakeholders involved: the end users, because of the experimental
> evaluation of the provided services, the researchers and infrastructure
> experimenters, because of the knowledge gained from case-study 
> analysis,
> and the infrastructure managers, because of the business exploitation 
> of
> the network.
>
> The synergies created by opening research infrastructures to real life
> users offer all parties involved an enormous development potential,
> which needs to be thoroughly investigated and discussed. Tridentcom is
> the first event that brings together all aspects related to 
> experimental
> telecommunication infrastructures, creating a forum where
> telecommunication networks researchers, vendors, providers and users
> can exchange ideas on past experience, requirements, needs, visions for
> the establishment of such infrastructures.
>
> Research on all aspects of testbed and research infrastructure 
> operation
> and management will find in Tridentcom its first forum for focused
> discussion. High quality papers reporting on original research and on
> experiment results addressing the above areas are solicited for
> submission. The main topics of the conference are:
>
> Next Generation Internet Testbeds
> Next Generation Wireless Network Testbeds
> Next Generation Optical Network Testbeds
> Ubiquitous Network Testbeds
> Wireless Sensor Testbeds
> Testbed Operation & Management for User Communities
> Testbed Operation & Management for Research Communities
> Testbed Cooperation & Integration
> Innovative Measurements Methodologies & Tools
> Traffic Measurements Testbeds
> Software Tools to Support Distributed Testbeds / Virtual Laboratories
> Management of Massive Databases of Experimental Data
> Knowledge & Technology Transfer Procedures
> Security (AAA) Testing on Open Testbeds
> Social Impacts of Infrastructures
> Infrastructure Real-Life Applications
> Business Models for Infrastructure Budgeting & Planning
> Infrastructure Renting & Pricing Policies
> Vendors & Providers Partnerships
>
> The meeting will take place at Trento, capital of the Trentino 
> province,
> heart
> of recent and rapidly growing R&D initiatives in Computer Science and
> Telecommunications, and surrounded by some of the most spectacular
> skiing resorts in the Alps. Pauses in the conference program will allow
> social activities and informal interaction among the participants.
