SCOPE
-----

Experimental network infrastructures are pivotal for academic researchers,
developers, service managers, providers, and ultimately end users to meet
the challenges of the emerging fast Internet convergence. Tridentcom 2005 
is the first event that brings together all aspects related to experimental
telecommunications infrastructures, creating a forum where telecommunication
network researchers, developers, vendors, providers, and users can exchange
ideas on past and current experiences, needs, and visions for the establishment
of such infrastructures.

The meeting will take place in Trento, capital of the Trentino province, in the
heart of recent and rapidly growing R&D initiatives in Computer Science and
Telecommunications, and surrounded by some of the most spectacular skiing
resorts in the Alps. Pauses in the conference program will allow social
activities and informal interaction among the participants.

We are soliciting full papers in all research, development, and deployment
areas on experimental telecommunication network infrastructures, from academia
as well as from industry. Topics of interest include, but are
not limited to, the following:

	- Next generation Internet testbeds
	- Next generation wireless network testbeds
	- Next generation optical network testbeds
	- Grid computing network testbeds
	- Ubiquitous network testbeds
	- Wireless sensor testbeds
	- Testbed operation and management for user communities
	- Testbed operation and management for research communities
	- Testbed cooperation and integration
	- Innovative measurement methodologies and tools
	- Traffic measurements testbeds
	- Software tools to support distributed testbeds / Virtual labs
	- Management of massive databases of experimental data
	- Knowledge and technology transfer procedures
	- Security (AAA) testing on open testbeds
	- Social impacts of infrastructures
	- Infrastructure real-life applications
	- Business models for infrastructure budgeting and planning
	- Infrastructure renting and pricing policies
	- Vendor and providers partnership

High quality papers will be selected for possible publication in a journal 
special issue and will be eligible for the Best Paper Award.
