| | | 14.00 - 14.30 | ROI 1:The Business Case For Installing 802.11 At Your Location
While most new technologies come surrounded with a degree of hype regarding their capabilities from vendors, more than ever CFO's are demanding proof of return on their investment before authorising budget. This session aims to quantify the direct value to the enterprise of adopting WLAN technology.
Dirk Waschelitz, M-Services
| | | 14.30 - 15.00 | ROI 2: Combining Voice & Data Over 802.11
Now that wireless LANs have a firm foothold in the business world, the combination of cost-savings and flexibility that comes with running wireless phones over the same network which carries corporate data becomes a huge potential win for adopters. A leading provider of voice over 802.11 details the technology and value proposition.
Mr. Hagai Soffer, Marketing Development Manager, Alvarion Ltd
| | | 15.00 - 15.30 | Practical Applications - Location Based Delivery
Recent advances in the intelligence of 802.11 location-pinpointing technology allow the network to determine where, geographically, the user is located and to make available certain information based on their precise location. This has diverse applications from delivering exhibit information in museums to providing stock information in warehouses.
Dipl.-Ing. Ingo Willimowski, Head of Section Communication Systems and Networks, IMST GmbH
| | | 15.30 - 16.00 | Afternoon Break/Visit Exhibit Hall
| | | 16.00 - 17.00 | Wi-Fi v the Competition: 3G, Bluetooth etc
Would anyone go with Bluetooth over an 802.11 wireless network connection for a wireless LAN? Should we be waiting for 3G to deliver multimedia applications to mobile workers? Do these technologies even really compete with Wi- Fi? Now that products with Bluetooth implemented are readily available, it's time to find out exactly what this standard is good at. Web surfing? Hardly. Printing? Probably. Sharing data between personal devices like PDAs and phones? Definitely. Discover where 802.11 and Bluetooth's areas of expertise differ, plus how and when you should consider integrating both for your users, plus a look forward to 3G and where this will fit in.

| 10.30 - 11.30 | Secure Wireless LAN
Plugging an Apple Airport into an Ethernet network was, once upon a time, a fun little side project for LAN administrators who wanted to let the occasional PowerBook go wireless. Now, everyone from the CEO on down wants the freedom and flexibility that come with a wireless network connection. That means LAN administrators have a new set of skills to learn. This session gets to the heart of what it takes to effectively run an 802.11-based system - no matter how large or small.

| | | 14.00 - 14.30 | Signal Optimization: Ensuring High Quality Network Coverage
Under the best of circumstances 802.11b and 802.11a have a limited signal range, suffering through losses of strength when having to deal with wood and concrete walls and floors. What to do? Boost your network signal optimization with add-ons like optimized antennas and relay points. Our experts will tell how to optimize your signal strength and enhance your 802.11 network coverage.
Max Meindl, Market Manager, HUBER+SUHNER GmbH
| | | 14.30 - 15.30 | Preventing Intruders - Developments in Encryption & Authentication
In light of the glaring security breaches uncovered in WLAN networks, there is a strong need to secure those networks if corporate users are to access their internal networks over a WLAN. This session explores using an encrypted and authenticated WTLS session as an alternative to IPSEC and demos current developments in using EAP (Extensible Application Protocol) with SIM cards.
Rolf Lessing, Secartis AG
Pontus Bergdahl, CEO, Columbitech
