Telemedicine over high-speed networks is gaining traction as a commercial and residential service, as consumers and businesses increasingly bear the burdens of decision making, cost sharing and coordinating care in a complex and understaffed health care system.

Bill Ablondi, Director, Home Systems Research, Parks Associates, is presenting during the session "Editor’s Choice Track: Energy Management: The Smart Grid, and Being Smart on the Grid Date" on Wednesday, April 27, 3:20-4:20 P.M.  Electric utilities are building telecom networks and partnering with telecom providers to manage energy use intelligently.

Stuart Sikes, President, Parks Associates, is moderating the session "Editor's Choice Track: New Revenue Streams for Home Networking" on Thursday, April 28, 9:10-10:00 A.M.  With the new home networking standards and technologies appearing on the market, residents can reap the benefits of the “connected home” without hiring full-time IT staff.
