Mr. Hiroaki Sato joined NTT laboratories in 1992 after receiving master's degree in Physics from
Tokyo Institute of Technology. I developed PON Access System, IP Multicast CDN System, and
IP dual stack backbone for triple play services. When I was working for NTT DOCOMO, I
defined “Guidelines for Video Delivery” for content providers and developed SDN System
working with NFV (vEPC). After returning NTT laboratories, I currently investigate NetroSphere
as future NFV and SDN.
