Networks 2010 is the 14th in the series of the Networks symposia. Since the first conference in Paris (France) thirty years ago, the meetings are attracting world-class participants from all over the world, ranging from telecom operators and regulatory and standard bodies, through systems and software companies and research units from universities and industry, to systems integrators. The consecutive meetings have been held in Brighton, UK (1983), Innisbrook, USA (1986), Palma de Mallorca, Spain (1989), Kobe, Japan (1992), Sydney, Australia (1996), Sorrento, Italy (1998), Toronto, Canada (2000), Munich, Germany (2002), Vienna, Austria (2004), New Delhi, India (2006) and Budapest, Hungary (1994 and 2008).

The conference will focus on network design and planning methods, the issues of routing, traffic flows and optimization that are necessary to deliver the promise of the Network of the Future. The motto of Networks 2010 is „Networks for the e-Society“. There are many challenges in building networks with the appropriate performance for the e-Society, such that each step is cost-justified and helps drive profitable growth. The difficult issues of scalability, end-to-end network performance, network management, network and service control, reliability, security and interoperability must be carefully resolved, and solutions planned and implemented.

The topics cover, but are not necessarily limited to the following: * Network Design and Planning Methods * Migration to NGN and Mobile Broadband * Routing, Traffic Flows and Optimization * Convergence of Different Domains * Role of New Technologies, Developments and Standards * Network Planning Support Processes and Tools
