Dear TC6 members, The deadline for hotel registration in Libon ended yesterday. I managed to get an extension of that deadline until September 13th. Please remember that the hotel cannot guarantee rooms after that date. I would thank also that those of you who come to the Lisbon meeting, but are not staying in the Melia Hotel, please let me know. Best regards Augusto

-----Original Message----- From: SIGCOMM 2003 -- James P.G. Sterbenz [mailto:jpgs@acm.org] Sent: terça-feira, 29 de Outubro de 2002 18:21 To: Augusto Casaca Subject: CFP: SIGCOMM 2003, Karlsruhe Germany, 25--29 August CALL FOR PAPERS (New this Year: a Broader Vision) ACM SIGCOMM 2003 -- A Data Communication Festival 25 - 29 August 2003 Karlsruhe, Germany www.acm.org/sigcomm/sigcomm2003 DEADLINES Submission of full paper: 31 January 2003 (firm) Workshop proposals: 10 January 2003 (firm) Submission of posters: tentatively June 2003 We invite papers that are about communications systems, whether imagined, architected, built, measured, analyzed, or simulated and comprehended. We have no preferred topics within the broad range of potential topics from policy and operations through information coding and transmission. Papers might be a detailed exploration of a well travelled path, or shed light on the boundary between two or more areas. Papers might present cross-cutting design principles, report on practice, or prove new properties for networked systems. Papers on infrastructures or methods that enable new research are also welcome. Topics include, but are not limited to: Operations Resource Management Distributed Applications Security Protocols Systems Transmission Network Architecture We invite full papers that present original, reproducible results (14 pages) and position papers that present preliminary work rich in implications for future research (8 pages). Both types of papers will be presented and appear in the conference proceedings. Paper submission guidelines and guidance on position paper content will posted on the conference web site the near future. In addition, SIGCOMM 2003 is open to proposals for panel discussions on timely and controversial topics. Panel proposals should include the topic and motivation for the panel, the names of the panel chair and panelists, and an outline of the format of the panel discussion. NEW THIS YEAR: SIGCOMM 2003 will dramatically broaden the vision of the annual SIGCOMM conference. We seek to expand the intellectual diversity of the papers, modify the program to be more receptive to new ideas and community-driven initiatives, and expand the intellectual agenda to include papers from a broader set of topics and recognize the wider range of methodologies that constitute data communications research. More details are available at http://www.acm.org/sigcomm/SIGCOMM-FUTURE.pdf. We are also inviting new communities to hold workshops in conjunction with the SIGCOMM conference and will provide them with the necessary support to make those workshops a success. Two of these will be Future Directions in Network Architecture Education Workshop following on the heels of the successful 2002 event More details will be available on the Web page soon. TUTORIALS SIGCOMM 2003 will feature tutorials to be announced at a later date. STUDENT PAPER AWARD Papers submitted by students may be considered for a student paper award. To be eligible, a student or group of students must be primary contributors to the paper. Such papers should be indicated as such on the paper submission web page. SIGCOMM AWARD SIGCOMM 2003 will begin with a keynote by the 2003 winner of the ACM SIGCOMM Award for lifetime contributions to the field of computer communication. Procedures for nominating candidates for the SIGCOMM Award can be obtained from Karen Sollins <sollins(a)lcs.mit.edu>. As in previous years, SIGCOMM 2003 will have a poster session and student travel grant program. Visit the conference web site for details as they become available.

FW: [IFIP] TC 6 - A Sailboat in the Wind (contd.)

-----Original Message----- From: owner-ifip_ga(a)ifip.or.at [mailto:owner-ifip_ga@ifip.or.at]On Behalf Of Plamen Nedkov Sent: sexta-feira, 25 de Outubro de 2002 09:53 To: all Subject: [IFIP] TC 6 - A Sailboat in the Wind (contd.) Dear All, Our report on the 30th Anniversary of TC 6 in Lisbon - http://www.ifip.or.at/secretariat/tc6.pdf - continues to be a topic of interest within the IFIP Community. People write, people call, people visit and tell us they enjoyed it a lot. We received the following messages from two past Presidents and thought you might appreciate to read what they say: From: Ashley Goldsworthy Date: Thu, 17 Oct 2002 21:08:29 +1000 I enjoyed reading of the TC6 activities in Portugal. I remember Luis Penedo very well. During his time as Portuguese representative we became friends and I liked him very much. Through that friendship Luis and the then Portuguese Computer Society invited me to Lisbon in April 1985 and I delivered a paper on "Man and Computer", This was after the IFIP Council meeting in Munich at which we celebrated IFIP's 25 Anniversary in a one -day symposium. All the then seven IFIP Presidents were at those celebrations. Getting back to Luis, he invited me to his home and he and his wife took me to dinner at a delightful Portuguese restaurant, where the seafood were kept live in pens and I still have the wooden gavel I souvenired which was provided to crack the shells. Luis was a great fan and exponent of fado and was expert at the Portuguese guitar. I was fortunate to have him play it for me.The following evening I was able to repay his hospitality and I took him and his wife to a lovely restaurant in Lisbon and for the first and only time in my life saw a bottle of red wine opened using a piece of heated wire and snapping the top off the bottle. The following year (1986) we held the March Council meeting in Lisbon. I'm delighted to hear of Luis' activity in retirement doing something he loves. I wish I'd been there Ashley Goldsworthy *** From: Richard I. Tanaka Date: Thu, 24 Oct 2002 18:49:43 -0700 Your message of October 17 -- focused on TC-6 -- was in my e-mail box when I returned from a memorial service that day. The service, beautifully done, was for Keith W. Uncapher, who is listed in the TC-6 report as interim Chairman during 1974 - 1975. One of the speakers at the service was Vint Cerf, well known - indeed, famous - in the Internet pioneering world. Vint and I had not spoken before the service, so I was pleased and surprised when he discussed the TC-6 communication demonstrations in South Africa and Brazil. He spoke anecdotally of the problems they encountered, ranging from working with a communication connection consisting of three wires emerging from the floor, to the difficulties of finding electronic parts locally to rig up some kind of working network. While there were several participants who made it possible, Cerf mentioned specifically that Keith Uncapher drove the event, never faltering in his optimism that, both times, eventually led to a successful outcome. I'm not sure, but I don't think Vint Cerf was a member of TC-6. He went to South Africa and to Brazil because the concept intrigued him, but, equally so, because Keith was involved. Cerf was not the only one who made the event successful, of course, but perhaps his role is illustrative of Keith's ability to attract technologists who otherwise might not have been involved with IFIP. I was pleased to note that the TC-6 report speaks of the "past President" who mentioned the TC-6 events of South Africa and Brazil, and I am glad that I decided to include those events in my report to IFIP. There will be another memorial service in November, at the University of Southern California, where Keith was instrumental in founding and initially directing what is known as the USC Information Sciences Institute, now a 300-person organization still actively engaged in communication technology. The University wanted to organize its own tribute to Keith's contributions. I plan to speak on his role in AFIPS and his support of IFIP's TC-6 activities. Keith was a friend, a dear friend. We miss him.
