Abstract

The development of the World Wide Web (or Internet) has provided the ability to connect the entire world together. Thousands of web servers located around the world allow users to connect and communicate with one another. Additionally, a huge transaction-based product sales business has evolved, via the Internet. for many, the next generation of the Internet needs to focus on collections of servers and users working collectively together to solve problems. Grids and the Global Information Grid (GIG) are terms associated with enabling technologies that provide the framework for collections of servers and users to work together. Network Centric Operations and/or Network Centric Warfare are terms that refer to the actual concepts, applications, and processes that will execute on the GIG and solve real world problems. Moving to this "next generation Internet" provides many exciting opportunities as well as many difficult challenges. This year's panel will explore these opportunities and challenges from several different perspectives: government, defense industry, commercial industry and academia.
