  Saving in Integrated Non-Terrestrial/Terrestrial Networks\n\nby Franco Da
 voli (CNIT-University of Genoa\, Italy)\, Hesham Elbakoury (Consultant\, U
 SA)\n\nAbstract:\n\nIn the evolutionary path beyond 5G toward 6G\, network
  energy efficiency is being recognized as a fundamental indicator\, along 
 with those regarding system performance. The impact of this aspect extends
  to both wired and wireless networks and\, among the latter\, to Non-Terre
 strial Networks (NTNs) as well\, and implies a reconsideration of manageme
 nt and control techniques to include the trade-off between energy and perf
 ormance KPIs. This talk will touch upon some topics relevant to NTN/TN int
 egration in this respect: conveying energy consumption information and adj
 ustment capabilities\; energy/performance tradeoff over multiple time scal
 es\; role of virtualization\; multiple orchestration levels\; exploiting O
 -RAN functional splitting in NTN edge extension\; role of AI/ML.\n\nSpeake
 rs:\n\nFranco Davoli is Professor Emeritus at the University of Genoa\, De
 partment of Electrical\, Electronic and Telecommunications Engineering\, a
 nd Naval Architecture (DITEN). (see full bio in SPEAKER details)\nHesham i
 s an industry veteran with extensive background and expertise in IT/OT\, a
 nd the architecture and design of access\, carrier\, and enterprise Networ
 ks. (see full bio in SPEAKER details)\nTopic:\n\nEvolving Non-Terrestrial 
 Networks from 5G to 6G\n\nby Alessandro Guidotti (CNIT-University of Bolog
 na\, Italy)\n\nAbstract:\n\nIn the evolutionary path beyond 5G toward 6G\,
  network energy efficiency is being recognized as a fundamental indicator\
 , along with those regarding system performance. The impact of this aspect
  extends to both wired and wireless networks and\, among the latter\, to N
 on-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs) as well\, and implies a reconsideration of 
 management and control techniques to include the trade-off between energy 
 and performance KPIs. This talk will touch upon some topics relevant to NT
 N/TN integration in this respect: conveying energy consumption information
  and adjustment capabilities\; energy/performance tradeoff over multiple t

 oiting O-RAN functional splitting in NTN edge extension\; role of AI/ML.\n
 \nSpeaker:\n\nDr. Alessandro Guidotti received the master degree (magna cu
 m laude) in telecommunications engineering and the Ph.D. degree in electro
 nics\, computer science\, and telecommunications from the University of Bo
 logna\, Italy\, in 2008 and 2012\, respectively. (see full bio in SPEAKER
