
The IT Fundamental Law was enacted in January 2001
“e-Japan Strategy” was issued in January 2001
“e-Japan Priority Plan” was established in March 2001
– To make Japan to be one of the most advanced IT nations within 5
years
– Major Objectives to be Completed by 2005
» 10 million households get the environment with a super-high-speed
internet (30-100 Mbps/ADSL, FTTH, Cable)
• achieved in 2003.5
• 15 million as of March 2004 (About 30% of Households)
» 30 million households can access a high-speed internet )
• achieved in 2002.10


“e-Japan Strategy” was updated every year.


Background and purposes
–
–

New IT policies of the government after 2006,
This Policy Roundtable will from a wider viewpoint toward the realization of the full-fledged ubiquitous network
society, exchange opinions on how to
» i) encourage "individuals" to foster their potentials through use of digital technologies,
» ii) realize a secure, safe and convenient society in any local community, and
» iii) improve Japan's international competitiveness and contributions to the international community.
Items to be deliberated upon


On March 1, 2004, MPHPT held the first meeting of the "Policy Roundtable for Realizing Ubiquitous Network
Society“
in order to exchange wide-ranging opinions regarding the concrete picture of a ubiquitous network society and
measures for realization thereof.
i) Grand design of the ubiquitous network society and measures for realizing thereof
ii) Promotion measures to prepare an environment for creating new businesses and developing human
resources
iii) Countermeasures against negative aspects of the ubiquitous network society
iv) Others

YRP has been planned and promoted by MPT since
the middle of 1980.
YRP has a very close relations with NICT and
MPHPT.
Over 60 organizations have R&D offices in YRP
11 university have their labs in YRP.
YRP R&D Promotion Committee consists of over 150
members.

 YRP expands R&D activities from mobile telecommunications to new


areas.
New areas will include next-generation broadcasting technologies,
network technologies based on IP network architecture.
Top priority in the new vision is to invite key players in broadcast and
Internet areas.
YRP will launch new joint research projects every year as well as achieve
the state of “Critical Mass” or the circumstances for spontaneously
producing and increasing joint research projects and technical alliance
between industries, academia and governments not only domestic but
also overseas.

R&D Ground to be Improved and Substantiated
16
To make R&D on wireless telecommunications technology short-termed and
efficient, YRP has continuously improved the R&D environments for R&D not
only hard facilities, but also soft aspect including hosting international
conferences and technical exchange programs.
Hard Aspect

Testbeds for radio-using trials and interoperability tests in YRP.

An environment of gigabit networks for high-speed communications
Soft Aspect


International conferences such as WPMC and AP-NeGeM.
Exchange of MOU with many international Science Parks such as
these in Oulu in Finland, Aalborg in Denmark and Bangkok in
Thailand.

Conclusion




Mobile communication systems will advance to
Ubiquitous networks, which will change our social
activities.
The Technical keywords of the future
communications are:
– “Seamless roaming among different systems”.
– “From mobile to ubiquitous”.
The Social keywords of the future communications is:
– “Ubiquitous networks to assist our social acuities”.
International collaborations become more important.
