Abstract :
Conclusion In Fall 1998, the International Workshop on Mobile Multimedia Communications (MoMuC´98) will host a two-day workshop on mobile ATM testbeds. The event promises to bring together researchers, developers, and practitioners from industry and academia to discuss results from WATM testbeds and other experimental work in the field. Also, toward the end of 1998 the preliminary specifications for “mobile ATM” and the 5 GHz WATM radio access layer will appear. This will significantly speed the arrival of commercial broadband radio products an the market. The availability of such products will radically change the way we interact with multimedia content over next-generation mobile networks
