--(BUSINESS WIRE)

WHAT:        Tod Riedel, co-founder of Millennial Net, the leading
             developer of hardware and software for self-organizing,
             wireless sensor networks, will present on the emergence
             of mesh networking architectures at NGN 2003.  Mesh-based
             wireless networking has gained recent acclaim for its
             ability to create highly dynamic, self-organizing and
             self-healing wireless sensor networks.  Presenting within
             a panel of wireless industry experts on the topic, "Self-
             Organizing Meshes: Architectures and Applications,"
             Riedel will discuss the benefits, limitations and key
             applications for self-organizing mesh networks.  Riedel
             will detail optimal mesh network architecture schemes for
             wireless sensor networking applications and provide
             strategies for avoiding security, latency and power-
             efficiency issues associated with this network
             architecture.
