6. Remark/Issue

1.AsiaFI activity requires bigger overhead than national activity, and AsiaFI needs to concentrate on areas where return on investment is very good.We should also make AsiaFI effort more productive to offset the overhead.

2. We need to look into synergy(and symbios) among major participants.

3. We may put high priority on graduate education at AsiaFI in order to develop the next generation researchers for future internet (long term research).

4. We may look into fair share on open research on the future internet.

5. Many people are very busy, and we have to take this factor into consideration.

6. Many researchers don’t know their peers in other countries, and it may take much effort to build good human networks.
