1. Global Internet Users 2010: ~2 billion Internet users(out of 7 billions) - Passed the tipping point of 25% 2020: ~5 billion Internet users(out of 7.5 billions) - Most of people in the world How do we facilitate new (and current) Internet users ecologically sound manner? - environment preservation: how do we control CO2? - culture preservation: how do we enrich local culture? 5

2. Internet as Social Infrastructure What kinds of the social infrastructure is the Internet being developed around the world? Example: Transportation - Train: Good social infrastructure - Car: Need to avoid USA phenomena 6

3. Engineering Systems All engineering systems go through periodic major changes. - Road: unpaved paved high speed - Train: steam engine electric engine high speed - Phone: manual automatic mobile smart - Television: black & white color high definition Is it time for the Internet to go through the major change? 7

4. Future (of the) Internet Research Long term research on fundamental issues Future Internet research started in 2000s. 2005~ USA/NSF 2006~ EU/FP 2006~ Asia 8

5. Recent Development Walled Garden Video as Major Application Data Explosion Fundamental Study Problems Internet Governance 12

5.1 Walled Garden? Facebook with one billion users Broadband Services in Japan(NTT), Korea(KT),... Great Firewall(China) 13

5.3 Data Explosion Video Traffic - Smart TV,…. Internet of Things/Smart Device/M2M - Machine as the Internet user 14

5.4 Fundamental Studies May need fundamental studies on the Internet - Computer Science 1960s~ - Data Science 2000s~ - Web Science 2000s~ - Language Science 2000s~ - Network Science 2010s~ 15

5.5 Problems and Abuse Global - Cyber Attack - Cyber Terrorism - Cyber Warfare/Cyber Weapon Personal - Privacy - Addiction - Cyber Violence 16

5.6 Internet Governance Current Stakeholders on Internet Governance - USA Federal Government - Other Governments(EU, National Governments,..) - ICANN and NRO - Standardization Organizations(IETF, ITU, ISO,...) - Internet Governance Forum What Internet governance model are we looking for? 17

6. Ecological Internet Why Ecological Internet? Shall we call Ecological Internet? What are the Issues? 18

6.1 Why Ecological Internet Now? It may be time to think of the long term perspective of the Internet as critical global social infrastructure We need to develop social infrastructure based on consensus rather than market driven. Future Internet research & development may address - for all people in the world, not just current users - harmonization with human society and global environment 19

6.2 Ecological Internet We may call the emerging global social infrastructure based as Ecological Internet; - The Internet we can sustain and we want to sustain - The Internet, which is harmonized with human society - The Internet governance based on consensus like ecological democracy - The Internet like Green State proposed by Robyn Eckersley 20

6.3 What are the Issues? New Internet Users How do we facilitate new Internet users(and current Internet users) in ecologically sound manner? Carbon How do we comply with the carbon reduction? Local Culture How do we harmonize with local culture and society? Market Driven How do we move away from the market driven development as appropriate? 21

7. Remark It is only the beginning of the Internet revolution now. Are we making the mistakes of other global infrastructures like automobile, nuclear systems,..? Are we having good global coordination now? Openness( data, education, research,..) are changing the world as the important element of Ecological Internet. Human resource development may be most important. 22
