Network convergence is happening. Globally, major network operators have incorporated network convergence into their strategy to grow service revenues and reduce operating costs. Network convergence is multi-faceted. Convergence occurs in applications (integrated messaging, Voice over IP), in network control (portable numbers, SIP, Mobile IP), in the transport layer, as well as in the access network. In the transport layer, the operators' networks are evolving from multiple networks, each specialized for particular services and applications (Wireline, Wireless, Voice, Data, Signaling), towards single IP-based networks that can support existing and future services and applications. This convergence of networks means that various types of traffic flows, which have been carried by separate specialized networks, must now share the resources of a single network. In the access, for example, a broadband carrier may seek to add mobility to its service offerings by untethering the broadband access with WiFi and, later, WiMax technologies. On the other hand, a mobile carrier is more likely to add broadband to its existing mobility services through evolution to 3G architectures.
Network convergence will be successful only if the quality of the individual services is maintained in the new network environment without undue increased costs. The quality of service delivery is critically dependent on how network performance and availability, as experienced by the traffic flows, are managed. Managing traffic performance is a critical enabler for success. Reaching the desired performance levels requires processes such as network planning, resource engineering, and network monitoring. Such processes have been successfully used in various types of service-specific networks. Converged networks, however, bring new challenges - novel architectures and technologies, new modes of sharing network resources, new quality targets for services and applications, new signaling and control protocols. The impact of multi-operator competition, on traffic demand forecasting, end-to-end QoS provisioning and pricing policies needs to be accounted for in a converged network architecture.
To enable the success of convergence in the face of these centrifugal forces, networks need to be designed to be robust to uncertainty in the traffic demand patterns and to be resilient to failures. Such design objectives motivate interest in robust, resilient network architectures, adaptive resource management and control methods, traffic models of new services and applications, novel traffic engineering methods, revised forecasting techniques, and compatible network planning and design tools.
For more that 50 years, the International Teletraffic Congress has brought together network operators, equipment vendors and academic researchers to share their knowledge on the use of quantitative modeling and analysis to plan, design and operate state-of-the-art network solutions. Network convergence is now the state-of-the art solution. In ITC-20, there will be stimulating discussions on traffic performance in converged networks. ITC20 seeks original paper contributions on recent research results, operational experiences and identification of key future issues in managing the traffic performance of converged networks. The papers should focus on the use of quantitative models, analysis and optimization methods to plan, design and manage converged networks. Topics of interests include, but are not limited to, the following:
Planning converged networks:
§ Case studies
§ Capacity planning methods and tools
§ Planning multi-carrier networks
§ Planning for robustness and reliability
§ Performance/reliability trade-offs
§ Network design for real-time applications

SCOPE
------------------------------------------------------
Telecommunication infrastructures play a vital role in modern society.
Advances in the range of network service offerings, performance,
quality of service, security, and ubiquity continue to flourish,
despite global economy fluctuations. Access to experimental
infrastructures for real-life applications by specific user
communities benefits all of the stakeholders involved: the end users,
because of the first-hand evaluation of the provided services, the
researchers and infrastructure experimenters, because of the knowledge
gained from hands-on study and analysis, and the service providers,
because of the business exploitation of the network. The goal of
TridentCom is to create a forum where telecommunication networks
researchers, vendors, providers and users can exchange ideas on
past experience, requirements, needs, and visions for future
establishment of such infrastructures.
It showcases experimental activities, such as testing, verification,
integration, measurement, and deployment, which are pivotal to
achieving next generation communications.

Dear TC6 members,
Enclosed is a list of hotels around either the conference or the TC6 meeting place.
All the hotels are located in the center of Paris and are close to the metro line 10 that serves either Rue des Ecoles (metro Odeon) for the AN'06 conference, or the IFIP meeting place (metro La Motte Piquet Grenelle):
Room Gerard Noguez, 7th floor
8 rue du Capitaine Scott
75015 Paris
(Access : http://www.lip6.fr/Laboratoire/acces.html )
For Otto Spaniol: Due to the paralelism between the AN'2006 conference and the working group meeting, is it possible to consider to begin the meeting on Friday 2:00pm and finish the meeting by Saturday end of the afternoon? This will permit to participate in the morning session of Friday?
The TC6 dinner will be Friday evening. As the ticket price is much better when spending a saturday night, this should be possible.
Best regards,
Guy

Dear All
As you may all know, WCNC will be held in Hong Kong - Asia’s world city - (for the first time outside North America). This is the major IEEE Comsoc conference on Wireless and we believe that it will be very successfull. In particular, we want to have as many good submissions as possible. As such, I am sending you this email to invite you to submit a paper to WCNC and/or proposals for tutorials and Technology/Business Applications Panels.
I would also appreciate it if you can spread the word to your friends/colleagues.
Thanks and I hope to see you in Hong Kong
