Keynote addresses

Tuesday, October 15

11:00 AM – Noon: How to make a Difference: Communication Protocols and Regulatory Protocols; Eric Burger, Georgetown University.

As former CTO of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Dr. Eric Burger is uniquely qualified to share his insights into the priorities and realities of the regulators. Come learn how engineers can constructively contribute to making the world a better place. 

3:00 PM – 4:00 PM: Meet the TADHack Winners & TADHack Global Review; Alan Quayle, TADS

This is an opportunity to meet some of the TADHack Global winners from the prior weekend (12-13 October), and see the power of what programmable telecoms can accomplish. The hacks demonstrate what teams can create by mashing up programmable telecoms with many other services available over the web to solve problems across all aspects of people’s lives.

Wednesday, October 16

11:00 AM – Noon: Networking research – A reflection in the middle years; Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University

Join former CTO of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), and Levi Professor of Computer Science at Columbia University Henning Schulzrinne as he shares his perspective on the role of network engineering in an era where the Internet has matured into a vast and critical infrastructure.

3:00 PM – 4:00 PM: Robocalling Mitigation – Implementing the STIR/SHAKEN Framework; Panelists, Chris Wendt, Comcast; Drew Morin, T-Mobile; Eric Ashby, AT&T

With unwanted robocalls representing far and away the biggest consumer complaint to the FCC (over 200,000 complaints each year – around 60 percent of all the complaints received), there has been a massive response by regulatory and judicial parties as well as the telephone service providers and their vendors to help solve this problem. This panel of experts from major tier 1 carriers will discuss some of the various ways that the US telephone network is transforming to adapt to helping consumers control their telephone experience, identify bad actors in the telephone network and block them, and ultimately with the help of SHAKEN/STIR, restore trust in calling party identity.
