Asia-Pacific Conference on Communications (APCC) 2010

Today we are confronted by global challenges such as climate change, resource consumption, environmental stress and population health. In responding to these challenges engineers are recognising the increasing importance of communications and connectivity. Sensor networks provide unprecedented volumes of information about our environments. Wireless and fixed communications networks facilitate the sharing of this information. Intelligence and cognition enable the efficient use and management of our resources. Meanwhile, humans and devices demand increasing communications connectivity and systems interoperability. Under the theme of "Empowering global connectivity", APCC 2010 provides a forum for researchers and engineers in the Asia-Pacific region to present and discuss topics related to advances in information and communication technologies, while encouraging collaboration and innovation that may help in saving the planet.
