ABOUT ITC    

Teletraffic is the discipline dealing with all phenomena of control and transport of \
information within telecommunications networks. The flow of user/control information, \
as a result of a large number of users, typically experiences a stochastic nature. 

Teletraffic Science is a well-established field. It is based on the theory and on \
methods of probability and stochastic processes on one hand, and on methods for \
control such as scheduling, synchronization of concurrent processes and queuing, on \
the other hand. Teletraffic Science is therefore strongly related to subjects as \
performance modeling, queuing theory, operations research, computer science and \
telecommunications. 

Teletraffic Engineering is based on the knowledge of the organization and technology \
of modern, computer controlled telecommunication systems such as switching systems, \
computer networks, broadband and mobile communications systems, for the integration \
of a broad spectrum of telecommunication services such as voice, audio, graphics, \
video, individually or in combination (multimedia), and all kinds of computer and \
data base applications. Teletraffic Engineering comprises methods and tools for \
modeling of telecommunication systems and services, performance evaluation, resource \
dimensioning, cost optimization, forecasting, planning and network management. 

The International Teletraffic Congress (ITC) has a long tradition. It was founded in \
1955; since then, 18 ITC World Congresses, 16 ITC Specialist Seminars and 18 Regional \
Seminars have been held. ITC covers topics from networking technologies \
(telecommunication networks, mobile communication networks, internet), architectures \
and protocols, teletraffic measurements and traffic modeling, queuing theory and \
performance evaluation, traffic engineering, network planning and network management. \
ITC has strong links with ITU, both with the ITU-T (Telecommunication \
Standardization) and ITU-D (Development Sector, BDT), and supports training in \
Telecommunication and Teletraffic Engineering. ITC is guided by the International \
Advisory Council (IAC), which is supported by associated members and experts from \
research, development and network operations and standards organizations (ITU-TS, \
ETSI, and IETF). 

The IAC is proud that ITC19 will be hosted by China . On behalf of the IAC, I would \
like to invite experts and research students from all mentioned fields to contribute \
to ITC19 in order to make it a great event.

INVITATION FROM CHAIRMAN   

The 19th International Teletraffic Congress (ITC19) will be held in Beijing , P. R. \
China, from August 29 to September 2, 2005. On behalf of China Institute of \
Communications (CIC) and Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (BUPT), \
we would like to extend our warm welcome to professionals, engineers, entrepreneurs \
and friends working in the fields of teletraffic theory and its applications to come \
to Beijing and participate in ITC19. Participants will be able to take this \
opportunity to exchange ideas and experiences, and share with us new progress and \
achievements in IT and telecommunications field. 

Since the first International Seminar on Teletraffic and Network (ISTN), which was \
the branch of ITC in China , initiated by us in 1988, we have witnessed a steadily \
increasing activity in China in telecommunications network and technologies. China \
has gained a leading status today in information communication science and \
technology, with the developments of IT and telecommunications around the world. \
Hundreds of experts, scholars, entrepreneurs, as well as graduate and postgraduate \
students in the relevant areas will be expected to attend this congress. As the host \
and sponsor of the congress, we will do our utmost to put the ITC19 into a success.  \
Beijing is the capital of the P. R. China. It has been the capital of six feudal \
dynasties in the Chinese history. The Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the Temple of \
Heaven, the Summer Palace and Zhoukou Dian Site of Beijing ape-man, are only a few of \
the famous spots of the long history of Beijing. They are also the epitome of the \
splendid Chinese culture, with large amount of cultural relics and historical \
wonders, which are listed by the UNESCO as world natural and cultural heritages. 

On behalf of the organizing committee of ITC19, we sincerely welcome you and your \
family to Beijing. We believe you will have an enjoyable and fruitful trip in both \
technical and leisure aspects.
