| Go
get it! Metadata helps in finding information. |
| With
the growth of the Internet and the amount of information on the Net,
finding information through simple mamoth centralised search engines
that index static information is showing its limitations. More and
more of the information is not in textual format but in graphics,
video or audio format, or in databases or digital object repositories,
so current indexing approaches don't work. Instead, we need to attach
metadata to objects and their identifiers, and to have ways of gathering
this metadata to support information discovery applications. This
session will survey the status of a range of work in these areas.

| Location
dependent services increase in popularity when consumers start to
be able to access Internet from more than one location, and even from
devices that move, like cellular phones. Some traditional web-based
services today ask the user to enter the location of the user which
accesses the service. Why is not that information entered automatically?
How to merge the need for geographic information being sent to services
while keeping a strong view on privacy and integrity issues? This
session will discuss the benefits and downsides with geographic information
being part of services on the Internet. |

playing on your home network! Video distribution over the Internet
|
| Distributing
video over the Internet is the most quoted killer app for broadband
Internet infrastructures. However video distribution requires caravel
engineering. Careful network design and clever distribution are needed
to minimize delay and jitter. Intelligent compression algorithms are
needed to generate quality video over not-so-broadband local loops.
This session explores these issues in depth. |

Gaming |
| Lately
we have seen a number of new ideas being discussed: peer 2 peer communication,
bandwidth and delay constraints, community building, presence information
services, localization... For the game community these issues are
not new, but instead all needed in various degrees for an online game.
This session will describe how an online game uses the Internet, and
why some of the issues listed above is more important than others.

mail has been in operation for more than 25 years and has scaled nearly
100,000 orders of magnitude with no major changes to its basic architecture.
The demands of global commerce are forcing a wide range of enhancements
to be pursued. Should major changes begin with a new technology base,
or can existing Internet mail continue to evolve and incorporate requirements
for quality of service (such as "instant" delivery), voice/fax/mail
integration, legal security, multi-million recipient volumes, and
more? This session will explore these demands and the activities underway
to satisfy them. Some of the news is excellent. Some is not. |
