RACE Mobile Telecommunications Summit

A new generation of mobile communication systems has been under development for a number of years, in the framework of the Commission's RACE programme for advanced communications technologies. To present these developments, the Commission, DG XIII, is organizing a RACE Mobile Telecommunications Summit, which will take place in Cascais, Portugal, on 22-24 November 1995.

The aim of the summit is to provide a major forum for the dissemination of the results of the RACE programme on third generation mobile communications. A plenary session on future mobile communications will cover the following:

- Market aspects;
- Research and development worldwide;
- Progress in standardization.

Individual RACE mobile/personal communications projects will also be presented, followed by a variety of workshops and discussions on a wide range of technical issues.

The RACE programme, which is now coming to an end, will be followed by the ACTS programme for advanced communications technologies and services (under the Fourth Framework Programme). A key role of ACTS will be the development of systems and service integration, and the demonstration of advanced services and trans-European network developments.
