SCOPE
-------------------------------------------------------------
Telecommunication infrastructures play a vital role in modern
society. Advances in the range of network service offerings,
performance, quality of service, security, and ubiquity 
continue to flourish, despite global economy fluctuations.
Access to experimental infrastructures for real-life 
applications by specific user communities benefits all of the
stakeholders involved: the end users, because of the 
first-hand evaluation of the provided services, the 
researchers and infrastructure experimenters, because of the
knowledge gained from hands-on study and analysis, and the 
service providers, because of the business exploitation of 
the network. 

The goal of TridentCom is to create a forum where 
telecommunication networks researchers, vendors, providers 
and users can exchange ideas on past experience, 
requirements, needs, and visions for future establishment of 
such infrastructures. It showcases experimental activities, 
such as testing, verification, integration, measurement, and 
deployment, which are pivotal to achieving next generation 
communications. 


PAPER SUBMISSION
