Abstract
The Internet has been becoming an important infrastructure of network society. The success of the Internet is mainly due to its architecture. In this presentation, the author shares the experience of the design and the operation of China Education and Research Network (CERNET), the second generation China Education and Research Network (CNGI-CERNET2) and summarizes the challenges which the future Internet must address. They are: the routing system scalability, the security, the quality of service, the charging model, the mobility and the transition. Some examples are also discussed in the presentation.

Applying Systems Engineering Broadly
Thomas V. Huynh
Associate Professor: Department of Systems Engineering, Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA, USA

Abstract
The American naturalist John Muir once observed, “When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe.” Today’s socio-technical systems, such as financial, health care, and energy systems, corroborate his observation as they are ever so connected. Engineering such systems requires a holistic view and, among others, application of support tools and methods. In this talk, the speaker accentuates the application of systems engineering to socio-technical systems and, using modeling and simulation and network/graph theory as tools, illustrates the application of systems engineering to three specific socio-technical systems ― the deregulated U.S. electrical power grid system, the unregulated U.S. market in collateralized debt obligations, and a regional economy. Such application would have predicted increasing costs of electricity and buyers scrambling on the electrical power grid system and the 2008 market instabilities of the unregulated US market. Such application would also provide planners of a regional economy insight into the interactions of various systems in the region and aid them in making informed planning decisions.
Speaker’s Biography
Dr. Tom Huynh is an associate professor of systems engineering and the Academic Associate for the SEM-PD-21 program, aimed at producing change agents skilled in systems engineering and management for the 21st century. He received simultaneously a B.A. in Mathematics and a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from UC Berkeley and both an M.S. and a Ph.D. in Physics from UCLA. His research in systems engineering has resulted in numerous papers published in archival journals and peer-reviewed conference proceedings. Currently, he explores the use of entropy to assess system safety and integration and methods to improve system-of-systems acquisition. He has received awards for excellence in systems engineering and analysis. During his 25 years in aerospace industry, he held various systems engineering and leadership positions, engaging in research in various fields, systems analysis and engineering, and project management and contributing to various system development programs. Dr. Huynh has been actively engaged in the systems engineering professional community, reviewing books and articles for publication, serving on the Editorial Board of Enterprise Transformation Journal, presenting papers, and serving as Discussant, Session Chair, Technical Panel Co-Chair, Organized Sessions Co-Chair, and Moderator at conferences such as Acquisition Research Symposia, INCOSE symposia, APCOSE, IEEE SoSE, and SETE.
