Dear,

At the request of a number of potential contributors, we have decided to extend the deadline for receipt of papers to be presented to the 3rd Symposium on Broadband Networks and Fast Internet RELABIRA 2012. This final deadline is extended to April 02, 2012.

Please find attached the CFP PDF version.

Overview
=================================
RELABIRA’2012 is the third International Symposium on Broadband Networks and Fast Internet that will be held from 28 to 29 May, 2012 at the main campus of the Antonine University in Baabda, Lebanon. This Symposium is organized by the Faculty of Engineering at the Antonine University with the collaboration of France Telecom R&D and Rennes 1 University. RELABIRA’2012 is technically Co-Sponsored by: IEEE and IEEE Communications Society Lebanon Chapter.

This 3rd edition of the symposium, which is free of charge, discusses the technical, economic, judicial and social impacts on deploying a broadband network and the migration towards new Internet-oriented technologies in core networks as well as mobile and fixed access networks. All key actors, governments, industry and academia are becoming more aware of the increasing applications usage while surfing websites, which needs a rich bandwidth connection and a high service quality.

Enlarging the spectrum of discussed subjects related to the main theme gave this symposium its identity. The main idea is to treat all technical aspects related to the subject of the symposium in addition to one non technical session that introduces, each time, a new controversial subject. The non technical theme in RELABIRA’2012 is the “Sustainable development and logical recycling”. In this 3rd edition, the symposium program will feature three invited keynote speakers, both from industry and academia.
