*Next Generation Networks:All 4U
Ubiquitous,Universal,Unique & User-Oriented*

Information and communications exchanges across broadband networks now are a
part of daily life at home,at work and on the road. More people are using
network services more frequently than ever before. Besides this huge leap in
traffic volumes,networks also must be handle heavy data,like video
clips,digital photos,music and ringtone downloads,presentation files with
animation and other rich multimedia content. The rise in 2007 of broadcasts
to mobile handsets has created new streams of network traffic.

Every minute,millions of users around the world are using thousands of
different devices to enter the network,and those devices use diverse
operating systems,different versions of each OS,and different protocols and
access technologies. Users don't want to learn a different set of procedures
for each device they own. Therefore,to allow seamless,user-friendly
access,network operators must adopt open standards,and must ensure that
their networks can accommodate multiple kinds of access technologies. They
need ultra-fast broadband technology,optical fiber systems,streaming
technology,packet technology,multiple-mode capabilities,and Internet
protocol-based (IP-based) technology.

Meanwhile,digital technology continues to alter the telecommunications and
broadcasting landscapes tremendously. Once separate services,like voice
transmissions and data exchanges,now are seamlessly available on a single
mobile handset. Previously complicated and expensive activities like
videoconferences now are a matter of routine even for small outfits.
Similarly,even private individuals now have the ability to create and
compile moving images with audio accompaniment,and to send this content to
as many recipients as they wish across the Internet. All these changes are
possible thanks to advances in digital compression technologies,embedded
system designs,content-editing software,optical fiber technology,and
efficient spectrum use.

Shifts to IPTV,broadband and multimedia content are driving the evolution of
next-generation networks delivering diverse services across different access
technologies. Networks are upgrading from vertical to horizontal
architectures whose packet-based transport systems will handle everything
from basic voice telephony to quadruple-play packages (voice,video,data and
broadcasting),plus mobile and fixed lines. The new capabilities these
networks offer are realigning industry borders,generating new business
models,and creating a revolution in day-to-day business and social
interactions.

On June 4,the COMPUTEX TAIPEI FORUM -- NGN 2008 will provide a venue for
network operators,service providers and equipment manufacturers to discuss
the challenges of building next-generation networks,offer ideas for new
business models,and meet with the OEMs and ODMs who can provide some of the
necessary components for the infrastructure of tomorrow.
