General Information:
We have witnessed fast development of various information and communication
technologies in the first decade of the 21st century. At the same time, there
has been a tremendous amount of efforts to fuse these individual technologies
to provide non-precedent services to the end users. Also, there have been a lot
of trials to apply information and communication technology (ICT) to other
industrial fields such as green convergence, smart screen, next generation
broadcasting and media, mobile convergence networks, and other ICT convergence
applications and services, under the name of ICT convergence.
The first International Conference on ICT Convergence (ICTC 2010) aims at
providing a technical forum for researchers and engineers to interact and
disseminate information on the latest developments in advanced information
technologies and services focusing on their convergence. ICTC 2010 solicits
original, unpublished contributions in all aspects of ICT convergence.
Submitted articles must not be concurrently considered elsewhere for publication.
The conference is organized by KICS and ETRI, Korea, with the technical
co-sponsorship of IEEE Communications Society (pending). All accepted papers
