Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) is a version of the Internet Protocol that is designed to succeed Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4). IPv4 is the first publicly used Internet Protocol and has been in operation since 1981.
IPv6 is an Internet Layer protocol for packet-switched internetworking and provides end-to-end datagram transmission across multiple IP networks. As a datagram service it does not guarantee reliability, a fun...ction provided at the Transport Layer. The main driving force for the redesign of Internet Protocol was the foreseeable IPv4 address exhaustion.

Speaker Profile

DR. ALI Hammad Akbar
Ali Hammad Akbar obtained his bachelors degree with distinction in telecommunications from NUST, Pakistan in 1997. As an intern, he worked at Pakistan Communications Industries, wherein he proposed and incorporated enhancements in the Norwegian telephone set, VIVO-II and its in-circuit tester. Later in 1998, he was awarded merit scholarship for MS in UNSW Australia, which concluded with his research findings in DWDM systems in optical communication systems. While in Australia, he also worked as a consultant to Eztel Corporation, a telco that compares in service provisioning with giants like Optus and Telstra. In 1999, he joined his alma mater as a lecturer. For his academic accomplishments, he was declared as a star laureate by South Asia Publications® for the year of 2003. In 2004, he joined Ajou University for pursuing the PhD studies. He worked on the architectural issues of wireless sensor networks that define the role and mechanisms for addressing the constraints and challenges purported in these networks. After the completion of his PhD, he is currently working as an assistant professor at UET Pakistan, a premier university in engineering and technology. His topics of interest include wireless networks such as MANETs and sensor networks.
