  networks and multimedia networking      controls 
- wireless and mobile networks          - internetworking
- network, traffic modeling and         - network signaling and
  performance analysis                    connection management 
- network security and privacy          - network management
- resource sharing and quality          - network architecture and
  of service                              protocols
- testbeds and measurements             - satellite networks
