Speech Title:
Advanced Architectures of Next
Generation Wireless Networks
Abstract: Internet Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms
are expected to enable wide spread use of real time
services. New standards and new communication architectures
allowing guaranteed QoS services are now developed. We will
cover the issues of QoS provisioning in heterogeneous
networks, Internet access over 5G networks and discusses
most emerging technologies in the area of networks and
telecommunications such as IoT, SDN, Edge Computing and MEC
networking. We will also present routing, security, baseline
architectures of the inter-networking protocols and
end-to-end traffic management issues.
