The talk will address key concepts and emerging ini tiatives such as Open RAN\, CAMARA APIs\, and the Open Gateway initiative\ , while connecting them to broader trends in network programmability\, mul ti-domain integration\, and the convergence of fixed\, mobile\, and satell ite systems.\n\nTaking place during Professor Neto’s visit to Europe\, t he session will include a 45-minute technical presentation followed by a 1 5-minute Q&A with the local IEEE and academic communities. The discussion will offer participants the opportunity to engage directly with current re search.\n\nRegistration is mandatory for all participants so that the orga nization can properly plan logistics and prepare the coffee break followin g the talk. Participants are kindly asked to register in advance and updat e their registration if their availability changes.\n\n[Instituto de Telec omunicações](https://www.it.pt/) [IEEE Communications Society Portugal C hapter](https://webinabox.vtools.ieee.org/wibp_home/index/CH08445) [IEEE V ehicular Technology Society Portugal Chapter](https://vtsociety.org/chapte r/portugal-section-chapter) [IEEE Student Branch Chapter ComSoc/VTS\, Univ ersity of Aveiro](https://ieee-sbc-comsoc-vts-ua.andreclerigo.com/)\n\nCo- sponsored by: Instituto de Telecomunicações\n\nSpeaker(s): Augusto Neto\ n\nAgenda: \n03:00PM Augusto Venâncio Neto\, Open Networking for Future C ommunications\n\nRoom: Amphitheatre\, Bldg: 19\, Instituto de Telecomunica ções \, Campus Universitário de Santiago \, Aveiro\, Centro\, Portugal\ , 3810-193 LOCATION:Room: Amphitheatre\, Bldg: 19\, Instituto de Telecomunicações \, Campus Universitário de Santiago \, Aveiro\, Centro\, Portugal\, 3810-19 3 ORGANIZER:andreclerigo@ua.pt SEQUENCE:29 SUMMARY:IEEE Distinguished Lecture: Open Networking for Future Communicatio ns URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/563305 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p class="isSelectedEnd">The IEEE Student Bra nch Chapter Communications and Vehicular Technology Societies of the Unive rsity of Aveiro invites students\, researchers\, IEEE members\, and profes sionals to an in-person technical seminar with Professor Augusto Ven&acirc \;ncio Neto on the role of open networking in future communications system s.</p>\n<p class="isSelectedEnd">Organized in collaboration with the IEEE Communications Society Portugal Chapter and the IEEE Vehicular Technology Society Portugal Chapter\, this event provides an opportunity to discuss h ow open\, programmable\, and disaggregated network architectures are resha ping telecommunications.
