  6. Issues for Information Explosion in the Communication Network • ABUNDANT resources: • Bandwidth (Bandwidth blowout by photonics and next generation mobile) • CPU Power (Silicon progress, Moore’s law) • SCARCE resource: • User’s Time (Difficulty of finding right information) • (George Gilder) • Key for the user-friendly communication FUJITSU LABORATORIES LTD.

  7. “User’s Time” Conscious Approaches 1. Service management 2. Agent technologies 3. Tele-presence / Tele-cooperation 4. User-friendly Interface FUJITSU LABORATORIES LTD.

  8. Provide user pertinent information with required quality and ease of access Policy-based control and guarantee of quality offered by heterogeneous application, system and network End-to-end Quality of Service Management User’s QoS policy Application/ Network QoS - Capacity - Accuracy - Time Delay - Security - Reliability User Requirements - Ease of access - Quality - Time - Cost Telecooperation QoS Policy Mgmt User Provider QoS Control Electronic commerce QoS-enabled Application QoS-enabled services QoS-enabled Application QoS Monitor Agent Web QoS-enabled Networks/Systems FUJITSU LABORATORIES LTD.

  9. Automated systems management Enable end-to-end QoS control Integrated policy information Policy-Based Enterprise Management PSM (Policy-based Systems Management) Application management PBN (Policy-Based Networking) Cooperate Cooperate Integrated management policy Network management System management Control Status Enterprise System (application, server, client, router) QoS:Quality of Service FUJITSU LABORATORIES LTD.

  19. Users make queries with keywords More than 40 servers distributed across Fujitsu have joined. 40,000 system engineers are using. Database agent software is distributed throughout field SE divisions for theirservers to join. 80% of the queries are answered within 2 seconds. Status of Find-Future FUJITSU LABORATORIES LTD.

  20. CHOCOA(CHat Oriented COmmunication Augment) • Shared Space : Informal and Simple Conversation in the Large Room • Chat System for R&D, Business and Pleasure • Informal, Simple and Easy to Use Communication System What is the manager scheduled to ? He is scheduled to attend the meeting for one o’clock. Internet I will report to him before the meeting. Now Searching! Monitoring bot navi IRC WWW FUJITSU LABORATORIES LTD.

  21. Product initiated by necessity Advantage of large room Always possible to see each other (Awareness) Always possible to talk to each other Multi-person discussion is possible Virtual large room (for researchers and engineers) Real-time and quasi real-time communication system Media : Multi-user and multi-party text chat system + Voice for compensation of text’s drawbacks Technical background Telephone system: Circuit-switched --- Always-ON is expensive Internet system: Packet-switched --- Always-ON is possible Approach of CHOCOA FUJITSU LABORATORIES LTD.

  22. User Interface of CHOCOA Instant Message (sent among users) Buddy List (showing status of users) Drag & Drop files Text messages from a keyboard Kick Internet Telephony Kick WEB browser FUJITSU LABORATORIES LTD.
