Wireless ATM Networking Workshop
State of the Art and Beyond
Friday, June 14, 1996, Columbia University, New York, NY
Wireless Asynchronous Transfer Mode (WATM) is motivated by the increasing
importance of portable computing applications in business, consumer and
industrial applications.
As multimedia applications migrate to portable devices, wireless extensions
to existing broadband networks will be required to support the seamless delivery of
integrated voice, video and data with high quality. In this context WATM is intended to be
a direct extension of the wired ATM network with uniformity of end-to-end QoS guarantees.
This workshop brings together a number of leading researchers who have been
actively involved in: i) the implementation of prototype WATM networks, and ATM
mobility management and QoS control schemes; and ii) the establishment of the recent
WATM Working Group in the ATM Forum. The goal of the workshop is to discuss the
state of the art and future challenges in WATM networking.
Organizing Committee:
Cristina Aurrecoechea, (Columbia University),
Andrew T. Campbell Chair (Columbia University),
Jean-François Huard (Columbia University),
Mahesan Nandikesan (Columbia University)
Location: The workshop will take place in the auditorium of the Schapiro Research Building on the Morning-side Campus of Columbia University at 530 West 120th Street, between Amsterdam Avenue and Broadway. The workshops attendance is limited to 50 participants.
Sponsors: The workshop is sponsored by the Center for Telecommunications Research at Columbia University.
