Koos: These are not Euclidean triangles. The shape on the top has a concave (pseudo)hypotenuse, The shape on the bottom has a convex (pseudo)hypotenuse, resulting in more area than the shape on the top.

Email exploder usage

von Otto Spaniol

Dear colleagues, our computer center made some changes for usage of mailing lists such as our list <ifip-tc6(a)informatik.rwth-aachen.de>. Unfortunately, they didn't inform me about that in due time; thus I didn't know the password which will allow me to deal with special cases and that is why a few messages were not sent out (which led to some irritation by the corresponding senders). I have been informed that meanwhile all pending messages have been distributed as usual. The new rules are as follows: a. Message size is in principle limited to 50k (larger messages are possible but then I will have to check on a case by case basis whether those messages should be distributed; 50k is already a lot of data; the upper limit is for security reasons and should avoid the distribution of powerpoint presentations etc. Please try to limit the number of messages which are overly long). b. The list access should be limited to list members only (This rule is not yet in effect for our list since sometimes members send messages from an address which is different from the normal one. I could arrange that in our case access is free as long as the list is not misused by too many people from outside. Thus please inform me if you believe that you get too many messages from non-delegates). Best regards Otto p.s.: Most of you have confirmed the validity of their email address or communicated the new address to me. Some others have not done that until now.

Approved: ifip-distr.chairman =============================================================== CALL FOR PARTICIPATION Middleware 2000 The International Conference on Distributed Systems Platforms and Open Distributed Processing April 4 - 8, 2000 Hudson Valley (near New York City) USA http://www.research.ibm.com/Middleware2000 The advance program is available on our web site. We invite you to register now to join us for this premier conference in April. Sponsored by IFIP TC6 WG6.1 and ACM Supported by Agilent Technologies and IBM CONFERENCE BACKGROUND --------------------- Middleware 2000 will be the premier conference on distributed systems platforms and open distributed processing in the opening year of the new millenium. The conference is a synthesis of the major conferences and workshops in this area into a single international event. Middleware 2000 follows in the footsteps of the extremely successful, inaugural Middleware '98 Conference held in the Lake District of the UK in September, 1998. The focus of Middleware 2000 is on the design, implementation, deployment and evaluation of distributed systems platforms and architectures for future networked environments. Of particular interest is the application of both new and existing architectures and platforms (such as RM-ODP, CORBA, RMI and DCOM) in environments which may include public and private networks, overlayed wired and wireless technologies, IPv6 and IP multicast, multimedia and real-time information and an increasing volume of WWW and Java traffic. SOME CONFERENCE HIGHLIGHTS -------------------------- Middleware 2000 is a single-track conference consisting of seven paper sessions, two keynote addresses, and a work-in-progress session. There will also be posters presented during breaks. 1) The seven paper sessions are on Messaging, Caching, Reflection, Indirection, Quality of Service, Transactions and Workflow, and Composition. The details of the paper program is at: http://www.research.ibm.com/Middleware2000/Program/program.html 2) We are offering four tutorials by leading practitioners: April 4 AM Tutorials: T1. "Scalability Issues in CORBA-based Systems" Steve Vinoski, IONA Technologies T2. "Designing with Patterns" John Vlissides, IBM TJ Watson Research Center April 4 PM Tutorials: T3. "Middleware for Programmable Networks" Andrew Campbell, Columbia University T4. "Applying Patterns for Concurrent and Distributed Components" Frank Buschman, Siemens ZT More information on the tutorials is at: http://www.research.ibm.com/Middleware2000/Tutorials/tutorials.html 3. We are organizing a workshop on Reflective Middleware (RM2000) that will be co-located with Middleware 2000. Information on the RM2000 workshop can be found at: http://www.comp.lancs.ac.uk/computing/RM2000/ 4. We will have two keynote addresses by visionaries in the field of middleware: Ken Birman, Professor at Cornell University, and Jim Waldo of Sun Microsystems. 5. We will have a work-in-progress paper session and multiple poster sessions. Information on the WiP papers and posters will be available at: http://www.research.ibm.com/Middleware2000 LOCATION AND ACTIVITIES ----------------------- The conference will be held at the beautiful Hudson River Valley. The IBM Palisades Conference Center is a state-of-the-art meeting center on 106 acres of land, just north of New York City. Check out the URL. http://www.research.ibm.com/Middleware2000/Location/location.html There will be social events as part of this year's conference, including a Welcome Reception where participants can meet the organizing team and other participants in an informal setting, as well as other socials. We will also be providing conference luncheons to all attendees on all three days of the conference. Lunch will also be provided to people attending the workshop on Fri/Sat and to those attending the tutorials on Tuesday. Information on these activities will be available on the conference web page.

First all-even-digit-day since 1111 years!

von Otto Spaniol

Hi folks, here comes quite another story: Tomorrow (or even today in Australia) will be a very very very special day: February 2, 2000 (i.e. 2.2.2000) is be the first day with only even digits (in the decimal number notation) since 28.8.888, i.e. since more than 1111 years (!!!). By the way: Probably we did not pay enough attention to the fact that the most recent day with only odd digits was 19.11.1999 and the next day with that property will be either 1.1.3111 (or even 11.11.3111) depending on whether you have one or two digits for "day" and "month". Interestingly enough, the distance between those days is also more than 1111 years. TC6 as a committee with an even number should commemorate the "all-even-digit-day" more than the other one. Best regards Otto

Re: [ifip-tc6] First all-even-digit-day since 1111 years!

Otto, >Tomorrow (or even today in Australia) will be a very very very special day: > >February 2, 2000 (i.e. 2.2.2000) is be the first day with only even >digits (in the decimal number notation) >since 28.8.888, i.e. since more than 1111 years (!!!). This is obvious since you have (at least) to change every digit of the date to switch from an all-even to an all-odd date (and conversely), that is 1111 years. Then there is necessarily a date close to it (less than one year) that has the property. >By the way: >Probably we did not pay enough attention to the fact that the >most recent day with only odd digits was 19.11.1999 >and the next day with that property will be either >1.1.3111 (or even 11.11.3111) depending on whether you have one or >two digits for "day" and "month". Interestingly enough, the distance >between those days is also more than 1111 years. For the same reason... >TC6 as a committee with an even number should commemorate >the "all-even-digit-day" more than the other one. I'm afraid, my WG cannot join you because it has an odd digit in it. Unfortunately, it has also an even digit, so that I've no chance to commemorate any such thing before the end of time (or the end of IFIP which is obviously earlier).
