                          Call for Participation

                      IEEE ICC Business Forum on
                eHealth Support in the Future Internet
        Viable Business Models for Quality of Service Assurance

                        June 8, 2011, 15:50-17:20

           In conjunction with IEEE ICC 2011, June 6-8, 2011
                     http://www.ieee-icc.org/2011/

             Kyoto International Conference Center, Japan

                                 Scope


The support of eHealth in next generation networks is currently
gaining increasing attention in the industry and public sector
worldwide, for example, in Europe it is one of five pillars of the
Future Internet Public-Private-Partnership and in the US is one of the
points mentioned in the health care reform. However, viable business
models for eHealth delivery with guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS)
levels do not exist, as current networks provide only a "best-effort"
quality level.

Hence, this panel brings together key representatives from
telecommunication industry, health care industry, and public
authorities to discuss the challenges and opportunities ahead and to
address questions such as a) what are the key eHealth applications in
the Future Internet, b) is sufficient QoS support in place to offer
eHealth applications successfully c) are business models available,
which are viable for both, eHealth users and telecommunication
providers?
