 Abstract:
>     Next generation information systems will blend leading-edge
>     technologies from networking, storage systems, and computing.
>     They will seamlessly combine communications, software, and
>     contents.  They will incorporate the best features of today's
>     voice and data networks.  They will support fully distributed
>     secure 7x24 storage systems that utilize IP-based network
>     technology and provide Quality-of-Service access to multimedia
>     data.  They will provide users with support for content-based
>     retrieval, queries with approximate answers, data mining
>     capabilities, security, privacy, and full data interoperability.
>     This talk will present a grand tour of a wide variety of next
>     generation information systems, highlight their characteristics,
>     and introduce a number of new research projects that address these
>     challenges.
