History Challenge toward a next genera-

tion Ethernet Ultra-wide band optical network Connecting IPv6 technologies to

ISP Operation of DNS in the Asia-Pa-

cific region

WIDE Technology bringing society together.

Useful for individual & society. Bringing technologies together.

Reaching into territories that go beyond that of the organizational boundaries of corpora-tions and universities in various of networking field.

Bringing researchers together. WIDE made up of more than 100 organiza-

tion, 730 researchers in Japan.
