We are happy to announce that this conference will be held in >Japan, one of the leading countries in the areas of IPv6 development >and deployment. > >The Internet is built on the foundations of the Internet Protocol >(IP). The current version of IP is named IPv4 after its version >number. The total number of devices that IPv4 can identify is limited >to about 4.3 billion. It's hard to see the Internet becoming the >foundation of a true, universal communications infrastructure when >this number is compared to the human population. > >In fact, it is expected that the entire address space of IPv4 will be >exhausted by around 2008. So, address assignment/allocation is >currently being carried out under a very restrictive policy. NAT >(Network Address Translator) was introduced as a temporary solution, >resulting in the loss of some of the original functionality of the >Internet. > >The principles of the Internet are end-to-end and bidirectional >communication. This means every node can communicate with every other >freely without any restrictions caused by intermediate nodes. Since >NAT broke these principles, it became difficult for unexpected novel >applications to appear in the current environment of the Internet. > >To resolve the exhaustion of IP addresses, extending its address space >is a straightforward solution. IPv6, the next generation of IP, >provides a huge number of IP addresses and makes NAT obsolete allowing >the Internet to recover its original principles. > >IPv6 is a paradigm recovery for applications. After deploying IPv6 and >recovering end-to-end/bidirectional communication, we cannot imagine >what kind of applications will appear. > >This conference will introduce the current deployment status of IPv6 >throughout the world. Also, panel discussions are planned, both on >"How IPv6 will Change Business" and on "Case Studies: Making the >Change to IPv6". > >Getting Internet people together, including those who are involved in >IPv6 activities and IPv4 business and management, we intend to discuss >the future of Internet business and the direction of engineering. >This conference will be beneficial for everyone including, but not >limited to, engineers, researchers, network managers and business >people.
