19 Jul '18

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

RE: [ifip-tc6] Little interest in sports?
by Radford, Peter 25 Mar '03

25 Mar '03

Otto et al Please accept my apologies for not replying sooner - it was on my list of "things to do when I have a few minutes spare time". I'm on the positive side considering that there are some very interesting computer systems that are sports-related and some of those have very demanding communications requirements. As examples, consider the systems that have been developed for the Olympic Games and the systems associated with Formula 1 car racing, even when they have removed the remote engine control facilities to let someone other than Ferrari win! Balancing this interest, I have to say that I would have very little time to contribute much to progressing this, unless someone could convince my lords and masters that it was relevant to the telecommunications operators (that's the business sector I'm in). I'd be happy to act a reviewer of papers (assuming it could all be done remotely) but I could not realistically commit to anything else. Hope this helps Regards Peter > -----Original Message----- > From: Otto Spaniol [mailto:spaniol@informatik.rwth-aachen.de] > Sent: 25 March 2003 16:42 > To: ifip-tc6(a)informatik.rwth-aachen.de > Subject: [ifip-tc6] Little interest in sports? > > > Dear all, > > on March 14 I asked you about a possible interest in an > IFIP initiative (or Task Force or whatsoever) > concerning "IT and Sports". > > The number of answers received was rather limited: > > Not more than two replies (one positive, one sceptical): > > Positive: "Very interesting and innovative idea" > > Sceptical: "There are many areas, much more closely related > to the core of TC6 activities where we could well use more energy > --- but we don't seem to have this energy." > > At our recent meeting in Lisboa we had more positive comments. > Why did they disappear? > > In two days from now I will have a preparatory meeting in Cologne > and if poisble at all I would like to have some more input. > > Can I still hope for that? > > Best regards > Otto > > > _______________________________________________ > ifip-tc6 mailing list > ifip-tc6(a)lists.RWTH-Aachen.DE > http://MailMan.RWTH-Aachen.DE/mailman/listinfo/ifip-tc6 > This e-mail and any attachment is for authorised use by the intended recipient(s) only.

Little interest in sports?
by Otto Spaniol 25 Mar '03

25 Mar '03

Dear all, on March 14 I asked you about a possible interest in an IFIP initiative (or Task Force or whatsoever) concerning "IT and Sports". The number of answers received was rather limited: Not more than two replies (one positive, one sceptical): Positive: "Very interesting and innovative idea" Sceptical: "There are many areas, much more closely related to the core of TC6 activities where we could well use more energy --- but we don't seem to have this energy." At our recent meeting in Lisboa we had more positive comments. Why did they disappear? In two days from now I will have a preparatory meeting in Cologne and if poisble at all I would like to have some more input. Can I still hope for that? Best regards Otto
