We would like to remind everyone that the early registration deadline for FIS 2008, to be held in Vienna, Austria, 28-30 September, will close on **August 15th 2008**. Details on how to register can be found on the main conference website at: http://www.fis2008.org/. The Future Internet Symposium provides a scientific forum for discussing issues around the Future Internet. Current consensus created in forums such as the Future Internet Conference in Bled, Slovenia in March this year is that a Future Internet will comprise: - an Internet of Things, where every electronic device will be an active participant in the network; - an Internet of Services, where applications live in the network, and data becomes an active entity; - an Internet of Content and Media, where most of the contents are generated by end-users; - an Internet of Publicity, Privacy and Anonymity, where people and software must understand how much trust to extend to others; - an Internet of Mobility and Ubiquity, where connectivity everywhere is expected, and depended upon. Additionally, it is essential that discussions cross the boundaries of the above and we begin to link the domains of IT, Telecommunications and Media. FIS 2008 aims to provide a space for the above to begin. We have now selected a number of scientific papers which are complemented by two Keynotes (Dr. Joao da Silva Director of the Network and Communication in Directorate of DG-INFSO; and Dr. Alexander Hauptmann Senior Systems Scientist in the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University), a number of Invited Papers, two full day workshops and four half day tutorials.
