FIP Working Group 6.3 on Performance of Communication Systems and IFIP
Working Group 6.2 on Network and Internetwork Architectures
9th IFIP WORKING CONFERENCE
ON
PERFORMANCE MODELLING AND EVALUATION OF ATM & IP NETWORKS
(IFIP ATM & IP 2001)
Wednesday 27th - Friday 29th June, 2001
Budapest, Hungary
Further information, technical program and registration:
http://www.diamond-congress.hu/ifip/
Scope of the conference
The performance evaluation of ATM and IP networks has been subject to a
significant amount of research
recently. The ever changing traffic mix in the Internet and the
increasing demand for mobility represent new
challenges for performance analysis.
The primary focus of the Ninth IFIP Working Conference on ATM & IP
Networks (IFIP ATM & IP
2001) is to contribute to fundamental research in ATM and IP
technologies and in internetworking issues
focusing on performance and reliability modelling and analysis.
The Conference is built on the tradition of the earlier workshops
(Bradford - Ilkley, Antwerp,) with
increasing emphasis on issues related to IP and to the global Internet.
We specially encouraged researchers to
submit original papers in the field of Internet performance evaluation.
Augusto,
So concretely, for FORTE 2001 (August) and Middleware 2001 (November),
which are conferences for which BPAs have already been given in the past,
shall I keep 500 US$ or shall I switch to 500 Euros?
Best regards,
Guy

Dear TC6 members,
As referred in my mail which contained the meeting minutes I attach a
few documents that were updated in our meeting.
Have a nice weekend
Augusto Casaca
Dear TC6 members,
We had a very good meeting in Cape Town. We could close a few open
issues and discussed some strategic aspects for the TC6 future. I
attach the meeting minutes to this mail. In separate mails you will get
some other TC6 documents that were updated in the meeting.
Once again, I would like to thank Koos Koen for his kind invitation to
set the TC6 meeting in South Africa.
Best regards
Augusto Casaca
