The TERENA Networking Conference 2010 will take place in Vilnius, Lithuania, from 31 May - 3 June. "Living the network life" is the theme of TNC 2010, including talks about multi-federation and peer-to-peer roaming, ultra high-definition streaming media distribution, user interaction based on new human-machine interface design principles and new innovative tools for distance teaching and e-collaboration.
In the past few years, the paradigms of the research and education have been challenged by emerging trends such as media and content delivery, e-learning and e-research. Moreover, virtual organisations and new forms of collaboration have changed the nature of our interactions and the role of our network identities. TNC 2010 will focus on the technologies and applications involved in this change. The full preliminary programme is now available online:
