Session 4: Trends of NGN
technology and Migration Aspects
Session Chairman: Colin Langtry (ITU/BR)
Objectives:
This session will present the evolution
of NGN and future perspectives in the relevant access technologies,
service and network architecture with special focus on convergence,
home, office and mobile applications, Internet protocol-based platforms
and multiple access networks. It will be devoted to the evolution of the
network architecture towards NGN (IMS based or otherwise), fixed-mobile
convergence, evolution: towards a new generation of broadband mobile,
PSTN/ISDN evolution to NGN, pilot cases, and studies and scenarios
taking into consideration the relevant business models and opportunities:

Session 5: Interconnection and
Interoperability and Security Aspects of NGN
Session Chairman: Paolo Rosa (ITU/TSB)
Objectives: This session
will open with a presentation on the User-to-Network Interface
supporting the services defined for the NGN. In addition, accomplishment
of the goal of Plug and Play devices place requirements in at least
three major areas, Auto-Provisioning, Standard SIP Profile & Call flows,
and Standardized limited codec selection. Currently there are various
implementations and deployments that perform Session/Border Control
Functions (S/BCF), [aka, Session Border Control] in service provider,
enterprise, access and end-user networks. Defining requirements for
these functions and for mapping these to physical implementations is
needed to allow for vendor product interoperability and network
interconnection. Moreover, Number Portability and Network Address,
Translation and Protocol Translation issues will be considered as well
as interconnection of NGN and legacy networks. This session will
provide an overview of security standards and current security
standardization work. Security topics will include technologies and
convergence implications and will cover cybersecurity issues e.g.
combating spam. Topics to be discussed are:

Session 6: NGN and Broadband:
Policy and Regulatory Issues
Session Chairman:
Mallick Sudhir Chandra
(Commissioner BTRC, Bangladesh)
Objectives: This session
aims at challenges that the policy makers and regulators face while
considering introduction of NGN and Broadband technologies as well as
limitations of current regulatory framework which are based on
technologies and/ or service specific licenses. In order to ensure
investment in NGN and Broadband, regulators need to encourage enabling
regulatory environment which lowers entry barriers, promotes competition
and encourage investment in infrastructure. Emphasis will be on:
