  246. <p>ComNet/San Francisco to Cater to Fast-Growing Remote Access/Telecommuting<br />
  247. Segment of Networking Industry</p>
  248. <p>Remote Access and Telecommuting Pavilion to Provide Attendees Critical<br />
  249. Look at Technological and Managerial Strategies</p>
  250. <p>SAN FRANCISCO, SEPT. 17, 1998  To mirror the rapidly growing needs of the<br />
  251. telecommuting market, ComNet/San Francisco will feature a Remote Access and<br />
  252. Telecommuting Pavilion that will serve as the definitive resource for<br />
  253. corporations and individuals establishing remote businesses, field networks<br />
  254. and home offices.</p>
  255. <p>ComNet/San Francisco, to be held Sept. 30 through Oct. 2 at the Moscone<br />
  256. Convention Center, is produced by IDG Expo Management Company and is an<br />
  257. extension of the worldwide ComNet brand, which has served as the global<br />
  258. information resource for networking professionals for more than 20 years.<br />
  259. Uniquely situated near Silicon Valley, the heart of the nations networking<br />
  260. and enterprise-wide telecommunications industries, ComNet/San Francisco<br />
  261. leverages the strength of ComNet/Washington, D.C., the countrys largest<br />
  262. technology expo dedicated to global networking utilizing wide-area<br />
  263. telecommunications, data communications networking and Internet<br />
  264. technologies.</p>
  265. <p>The remote access market is increasingly critical to the evolving<br />
  266. networking and communications industries, says Michael Munn, ComNet/San<br />
  267. Francisco show director.</p>
  268. <p>Remote access is one of the fastest growing segments of enterprise network<br />
  269. computing, Munn says. Attendees to ComNet San Franciscos Remote Access<br />
  270. and Telecommuting Pavilion will see first-hand the latest hardware and<br />
  271. software products and solutions that bring the remote worker closer to<br />
  272. colleagues, customers and business partners. At the same time,<br />
  273. participating exhibitors will benefit from the increased exposure provided<br />
  274. by the broader ComNet platform.</p>
  275. <p>By the turn of the century, there will be an estimated 40 million<br />
  276. Americans who work on a regular if not full-time basis in a remote office<br />
  277. setting, said Bill Laberis, conference chairman for ComNet/San Francisco.<br />
  278. The care and feeding of the networking needs of this group will be a vital<br />
  279. job undertaken in just about every corporation. I think ComNet San<br />
  280. Francisco with its Remote Access and Telecommuting Pavilion is a great<br />
  281. place to be for those trying to get their arms around these critical<br />
  282. business issues.</p>
  283. <p>In addition to the Remote Access and Telecommuting Pavilion, ComNet/San<br />
  284. Francisco will feature a conference track devoted exclusively to remote<br />
  285. access/telecommuting. Technologies and Applications in Remote Access will<br />
  286. provide in-depth knowledge about the state-of-the-art technologies  from<br />
  287. xDSL to virtual private networks  and management strategies critical to<br />
  288. building and maintaining remote access programs.</p>
  289. <p>The general conference track theme compliments two additional conference<br />

  292. challenges associated with the diversity of technology products in many<br />
  293. organizations. ComNet/Business Essentials, on the other hand, caters to<br />
  294. management, addressing the needs of organizations to strike a balance<br />
  295. between new technology and ensuring it ties into a companys overall<br />
  296. strategic mission and bottom line.</p>
