| [Nettime-nl] Future of Presence vrijdag 10 oktober |
Beste Nettimers,
het reguliere telefonienetwerk is door onder meer dataretentie en
aftapbeleid steeds minder een optie waarop je als individu kunt
vertrouwen. In de VS worden jaarlijks miljoenen burgers afgeluisterd,
in Europa blijken zelfs regeringen kwetsbaar voor aftappen (zo werd
onder meer de Griekse regering een jaar lang volledig door onbekenden
telefonisch onderschept). Ook via bedrijven als Skype blijkt censuur en
oncontroleerbaarheid wie er meeluistert een probleem.
Het internet biedt charmante oplossings- richtingen hiervoor, gebaseerd
op open IETF-standaarden als SIP, SIMPLE, Jabber (XMPP), ENUM, Real Time
Text en andere realtime toepassingen van het internet. Die vallen onder
de gezamenlijke noemer "presence", omdat ze je volledige bereikbaarheid
onder je eigen voorwaarden bieden.
Morgen is een congres gewijd aan dit fenomeen, georganiseerd door
vereniging Internet Society en met een keur aan interessante sprekers
van over de hele wereld. Jullie zijn van harte welkom indien het je
interesseert. Voor PhD's en studenten zorgen we dat je gratis
binnenkomt. En jullie ideeen voor projecten rondom online privacy en
presence zijn van harte welkom, zie:

N.B. Op 23 oktober is er een masterclass over Xtreem OS aan de Vrije
Universiteit door dr. Christine Morin en Sylvain Jeuland. Dat is een op
Linux gebaseerd besturingssysteem dat dankzij Europees onderzoeksgeld
is omgebouwd tot een volwaardig grid operating system. Zie:

Presence is not an application.
Presence is an application enabler.
However, some of those applications
may not be what we expect.
==== Robert Sparks
Tijdens "The Future of Presence" op 10 oktober a.s. kunt u weer een
internationaal gezelschap van sprekers tegemoet zien, met showcases van
onder meer de combinatie presence en TV, de laatste ontwikkelingen op
het gebied van toepassingen, diensten en business benefits. Maar ook
verdieping: waarom zijn er binnen IETF op dit moment niet een maar twee
verschillende protocollen (SIMPLE en XMPP) die presence leveren, en wat
betekent dat voor zakelijke investeringen? En een blik op Real Time
Text, de nieuwste loot aan de stam die met zijn interactiviteit op het
punt staat om de instant messaging-markt te veranderen - maar die ook
op het gebied van doventelefonie een belangrijke impact zal hebben.

The Future of Presence 2008
10 Oktober 2008
Aula Koninklijke Bibliotheek Den Haag
Met onder meer:
* Robert Sparks (Tekelec/USA)
* Dean Willis (Softarmor/USA)
* Olle Johansson (Edvina/SE)
* Adrian Georgescu (AG Projects/NL)

Presence is de samenkomst van de verschillende manieren waarop we in het
dagelijks leven communiceren. Protocollen en standaarden als SIP, ENUM,
SIMPLE en XMPP/Jabber maken de convergentie tussen mobiel en vast,
instant messaging, aanwezigheidsdiensten, spraak en videocommunicatie
eindelijk mogelijk. De volgende generatie commmunicatie-apparatuur
brengt alles binnen handbereik van de eindgebruiker.
Future of Presence 2008 wordt georganiseerd door de ISOC.nl Special
Interest Group rondom Internettelefonie en SIP. Motiverende en
inspirerende presentaties door experts van naam uit binnen- en
buitenland, zullen in combinatie met de showcases en demonstraties
helpen om de voor- en nadelen te analyseren van het uitrollen van
diensten gebaseerd op deze technologieen - en daarmee van dienst zijn
bij het maken van beslissingen van serviceproviders en klanten om in
deze nieuwe richting te bewegen. Een must voor iedereen die actief is in
telecom, instant messaging en real time text.
De conferentie wordt gehouden in de aula van de Koninklijke Bibliotheek
(Prins Willem-Alexanderhof 5) in Den Haag. Aanvang: 9.30 uur.

Over de sprekers
* Robert Sparks, Tekelec
Robert Sparks is a Principal Engineer at Tekelec. Before joining
Tekelec, he was the VP of Research and Development at Estacado
Systems, CTO at Xten Networks (now CounterPath) and has held
management and research positions at Dynamicsoft, Lucent, MCI, and
Texas A&M University. For over 8 years, Robert has focused on
designing and developing SIP-based IP communications systems. Robert
is a co-author of the core SIP specification, RFC3261, and several of
its updates and extensions. He chairs the IETF's SIMPLE and GEOPRIV
working groups. Robert is a Director for the international SIP Forum
which has focused on improving the level of interoperability of SIP
implementations by coordinating the SIPIt and SIMPLEt interoperability
events. Robert is also an active contributor to the reSIProcate
project. Robert has a BSc in Computer Science and a MSc in Mathematics
from Texas A & M University.
"People are just beginning to integrate presence technology into
their daily lives. We are currently in an era where the first
thing we do with a Presence/IM system is ask "Are you really
there?" That will change soon as we go through a phase of
automation and tighter integration with devices. When it does,
it will become clearer that Presence is not an application.
Presence is an application enabler. However, some of those
applications may not be what we expect."
* Dean Willis, Softarmor
Dean Willis chairs the IETF's SIP working group and has done so since
since it started in 1999. His research interests include computer
supported collaborative work and identity management. He developed and
deployed VoIP architecture and service delivery platforms at MCI
Worldcom, Dynamicsoft, and Cisco Systems. Currently, Dean is a
principal with the Texas-based technology and intellectual property
consultancy group, Softarmor Systems. He also lectures periodically at
Southern Methodist University.
"The focus of standards effort in the IETF has been to define
the "one true Internet presence protocol" that could be used
ubiquitously from mobile handsets to massive interdomain server
deployments. This effort has failed: the IETF itself has
defined two different protocols (SIMPLE and XMPP), and
commercial deployments have diverged even more widely. Valid
technical and social reasons drive this divergence. No single
protocol meets the full range of requirements. The future of
presence most likely involves multiple specialized protocols
that are aggregated, mixed, and interwoven in the "mashup "
style of today's web apps, with information being aggregated and
remixed by custom server-based applications. Expect to see
applications that combine availability, location, mapping,
blogging, messaging, work process, and inventory management,
among others. This presentation discusses the rationale for
divergence, the applications expected to drive the future of
presence in the Internet, and directional shifts in
standardization efforts that may occur as a result."
* Alan R. Bugos, iBasis
Alan R. Bugos is Vice President Advanced Technology & Engineering at

"This presentation will discuss presence applications, services,
and signaling/network architectures that interwork with
international VoIP carrier networks, a potential new source of
revenue for service providers. Business benefits, new sample
applications and services related to presence information and
databases, ENUM/SIP registries will be discussed and emphasized
for real-world applications linked to both PC- and web-based,
mobile and fixed line services, that may generate more revenues
and/or reduce operating expenses will providing unique
applications/services to "on-line" consumers. "

"Are we in a position to handle our presence states throughout
all the communities we are joining? The session presents
challenges and opportunities for behavior, management and
binding of presence services across multiple communities. Users
will bind project-groups, collaboration, sports or leisure
communities as well as real world entities like goods, services
and shipments in to their presence service of choice. This
opens a wide range of business opportunities with
authentication, authorization, user self management and service
control to upcoming offers."
* Olle E. Johansson
Olle E. Johansson, Edvina AB, Sweden, is one of the Asterisk
developers with many years of experience in open standards networking.
Olle is an active Asterisk developer with many years of experience of

have participated in two international SIP interoperability test
events with Asterisk. Olle co-founded Astricon, the Asterisk
conference and the dCAP Asterisk certifications, He's also a member of
the Digium Asterisk Advisory Board.
"The presence puzzle gets more interesting for every day.
Telephony platforms like Asterisk delivers call states and phone
states, and users want to mix this with their personal presence -
or do they? And who are allowed to watch my presence? Solving the
enterprise presence puzzle will be a very interesting task for the
Internet community. Today, we see first generation solutions that
doesn't take enterprise needs in consideration. This talk gives a
personal perspective and wishlist based on work with the Asterisk
PBX and XMPP/Jabber presence in small and large- scale
environments."
* Carsten Schiefner
Carsten Schiefner works for Telnic Ltd, the registry for .tel. Prior
to that he held several positions at RIPE NCC, Deutsche Telekom,

been an honorary member of DENIC's Executive Board since July 1998. He
has a background in Computer Science and Communication Science.
"This year will see the launch of .tel, a new top level domain.
Traditionally, TLDs have been about mapping domains to IP
addresses. .tel has a very different purpose: mapping domains to
contact information stored directly in the DNS. What will this
bring to the market?"

"Real-Time Text is conversational text that is sent and
received on a character by character basis. The characters are
sent immediately (in a fraction of a second) once typed and
also displayed immediately to the receiving person(s). This
allows text to be used in the same conversational mode as
voice, making it superior in usage to current instant
messaging. Being a real internet standard (RFC 4103) it can be
easily integrated into new services. A look into the next
generation of text-based interaction."
