Abstract :
As is well known, Communication Networks, whose current forms are telecommunication network, Internet, CATV and etc., have made great contributions to the world development. The terms like IT and Network Economy have thus been widely spread. However, there is also an argument on the subject that whether IT and Network Economy are opportunity or threat to the mankind. Recently, the worldwide crisis of network industry made even stronger negative impression than ever before on IT and Network Economy. What was wrong with IT and networks? What measures should be taken for them to get rid of the crisis? What will be the future of lT and networks? Properly understanding and answering these questions is just one of the motivations we organize the International Conferences on Info-tech & Info-net.
