broadband, Internet, municipal networks and related topics-- BSA]

The 34th Research Conference on
Communication, Information, and Internet Policy
September 29 to October 1, 2006
Arlington, Virginia
www.tprc.org


TPRC hosts an annual conference on communication, information, and Internet
policy that brings a diverse, international group of researchers from
academia, industry, government, and nonprofit organizations together with
policy makers. It serves two primary goals: (1) dissemination of research
relevant to current communications regulatory and policy debates around the
world; and (2) promotion of new research on emerging issues.

TPRC is now soliciting abstracts of papers for presentation at its 2006
conference. Proposals should be based on current theoretical or empirical
research relevant to communication and information policy, and may be from
any disciplinary perspective. TPRC welcomes national, international,
comparative, and multidisciplinary or interdisciplinary studies. Subject
areas of particular interest include but are not limited to the following:

.         Comparative Studies of Networked Industries 
.         Competition Policy in Network Technologies and Industries 
.         Laws and Regulation in a Time of Rapid Change 
.         ICTs for Development and Community Informatics 
.         Intellectual Property and Digital Rights 
.         The Transformation and Future of Content/Media 
.         Next Generation Devices and Networks 
.         e-Applications and Internet Governance 
.         Spectrum Policy and Wireless Applications 
(For full Call for Papers, see http://www.tprc.org/TPRC06/call06.htm ). 

Submissions are due by March 31, 2006. Abstracts must be submitted via the
submission form ( http://www.tprc.org/TPRC06/submit.htm) and should contain
a clear statement of the main research question, methods, central ideas, and
outcomes of the research. Primary authors may have only one paper accepted,
but may act as secondary authors of multiple papers and may submit multiple
abstracts for consideration. Selected papers will be due to TPRC on August
30th and authors are expected to present the paper. Students are encouraged
to submit papers for the student paper competition. The Program Committee
will also consider tutorials and special panels. Suggestions for tutorials
or panels can be emailed directly to the Program Committee Chair. Inquiries
and suggestions may be made to members of the Program Committee (see
http://www.tprc.org/TPRC06/ProgComm06.htm).
