 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.
