Welcome Message On behalf of the Wireless and Optical Communications Conference (WOCC) Organizing Committee, I welcome you to the 16th WOCC Conference. The scheduling of WOCC 2007 is quite timely, as we are at an important juncture in yet another telecommunications evolution. This one has the potential to significantly change, for the better, our every day life experiences, both on the job and with our families. It is also appropriate that it is held at the New Jersey Institute of Technology, a State University that is dedicated and focused on the key technologies that are influencing mankind’s technological advancement. The theme of this year’s conference is Convergent Communications over public mobile wireless networks, public fixed broadband wire line networks, and private customer premises networks. The integration of these three networks is the focus of a new next-generation network (NGN) providing convergent user- centric services that are no longer associated with the types of network access or content media. Instead, these convergent user-centric services will offer seamless delivery of multimedia applications including voice, data, image, and streaming video independent of any access technologies. As throughput becomes ever faster and more cost effective, ubiquitous broadband coverage becomes a reality, creating ary Chan is the President of the Wireless incredible opportunities. We will move to a life M environment where our communications are truly “Always Group of Alcatel-Lucent. On”. It will bring a personalized multimedia experience A veteran in the wireless industry, she is which is achieved via an IP Network Transformation and responsible for the development and delivery universal voice and broadband access. At WOCC 2007, we of current and next-generation wireless have gathered a group of elite industrial and academic networking solutions and infrastructure for the experts from the tri-state and other regions to stimulate world’s leading service providers and thought provoking discussions in these critical technical enterprises. and business areas which are the key enablers for the next chapter in the telecommunications industry. Previously, Mary Chan was Vice President, Mobility Access Research and Development The conference is organized in 24 sessions. During the for Lucent Technologies, where she led a keynote and plenary sessions top executives from many diverse global R&D organization with teams companies and organizations will share their keen insight in the United States, Europe, China and India. on the state of the industry.
