Welcome to the
2007 Global Congress on Communications, Computers and Applications (GC-CCA 2007). This event is intended to represent a major forum for researchers, professionals and students from all over the world to meet in the beautiful and culturally rich city of Amman in Jordan to present their latest research results and to exchange new ideas and practical experiences.
Scope
GC-CCA 2007 main scope includes, but is not limited to the following areas: Communications and Computer Applications and Technologies; Computer Science and Engineering; Intelligent Systems and Knowledge Engineering;
GC-CCA 2007 is planned to feature special sessions, keynote talks and tutorial sessions by leading experts, paper presentations, poster shows, demo shows, discussion panels, as well as other interesting technical activities.
Jordan
Coming to Jordan represents a unique opportunity to witness the embrace of history and future. As small in area as it is, Jordan has a rich history spanning thousands of years, a history that a tourist can only admire. Places like Petra and the Dead Sea are only examples of the many one-of-a-kind places to visit in Jordan. On top of all that, Jordan, as a peaceful country in a turbulent area, enjoys extreme levels of safety and security. Jordanian people are internationally known for generosity, hospitality and cultural awareness and tolerance.
Amman
Amman, the beautiful capital of Jordan, is a living model of a large and modern city that has all kinds of tourist attractions.

Advancements in Fiber Optic Submarine Cables Technology
Summary
A fiber optic submarine communications cable is a cable laid beneath oceans and seas to carry information signals between continents and countries. Such cables become the backbone for telephone traffic as well as internet and private data traffic. The first generation of fiber optic submarine cables which are put in service in the late 80”s increased the carried traffic to ten times of that carried by coaxial cables. Using new optical technologies such as DWDM and optical amplifiers in modern fiber optic submarine cables further increase the traffic to thousand times of that carried by first generation fiber optic cables. In the last twenty years, hundreds of fiber optic submarine cables have been laid in the oceans to carry huge amounts of traffic between continents. In this talk, we will discuss the technologies which stand behind this great jumps in the capacities of such cables and a we will present the path maps of the major international submarine cables and the technical specifications of some of them.
