Invitation: TC6 Meeting in Zurich on 6,7 Oct. 2001

von Harry Rudin

Dear Colleagues --- I am delighted to invite you to the TC6 meeting in Zurich on Saturday and Sunday, October 6 and 7, 2001. As you know, our TC6 committee meeting follows the I3e conference (the First IFIP Conference on e-Commerce, e-Business & e-Government) with its tutorials on 3 October and papers on 4 and 5 October. The conference and our committee meeting will be held at the University of Zurich at Irchel, between Zurich's airport, Kloten, and downtown Zurich. The conference URL is http://www.ifi.unizh.ch/I3E-conference/ If you want to attend the conference, you can also register via the URL. Program: Augusto suggests that we start the meeting at 9:00 am on Saturday. Late Saturday afternoon we are invited to a presentation at the IBM Zurich Research Lab (just outside Zurich in Rueschlikon) at which the Laboratory Director, Matthias Kaiserswerth, will present IBM's General Technical Outlook, IBM's view of future trends. Following this there will be an opportunity to visit IBM's Industry Solutions Laboratory which IBM uses to show executives some of the latest technology. Past experience with similar --- if less distinguished! ;-) --- audiences indicates you will enjoy this event. Matthias and IBM also invite TC6 members to a dinner following the lab visit. (Members will have to pick up the dinner tab for their spouse, something in the order of Sfr. 80.) We will walk from the laboratory down to the restaurant on the Lake of Zurich. On Sunday we will resume our TC6 meeting at 9:00 am and continue at least until noon. Augusto (currently traveling) will send the agenda in mid September. Hotels: The I3e conference asks attendees to make their own reservations which you can extend for our TC6 meeting. A pointer to hotels is available on the Web site; again, http://www.ifi.unizh.ch/I3E-conference/ Secretaries at the IBM Research Lab recommend three hotels: - the Seidenhof in downtown Zurich at about 160 Sfr. a night, - the Engematt, also in downtown Zurich at about 165 Sfr. a night, - and the IBIS hotel in Adliswil, just outside of Zurich and for which there is no public transportation, at about 95 Sfr. a night. Your travel agent should ask for the IBM Research Lab rate at all three of these hotels. I am sorry that I do not have someone to help with reservations. It would help us with the planning if you would send me a note saying that you will be coming. I do look forward to welcoming you to Zurich! With best regards, Harry

TC6 events statistics

von Augusto Casaca

Dear TC6 members, I am attaching a table, which indicates all the registered TC6 events since 1998. It would be useful to complete it as much as possible in the blank fields that relate to the event statistics concerning the papers and attendees. I am aware that most of this past information might be difficult to get, but many WG chairmen probably have it available in their archives. Therefore I would mainly request the WG chairmen to provide the respective information. It is my proposal that for future WG reports, this information is provided for every event that is sponsored by the WG. This will help us to have a more precise view of what is happening with our sponsored events. I would thank if the WG chairmen could send me the information until September 10th. Best regards Augusto Casaca

Confman software for IFIP TC6 events

von Guy Leduc

Dear Herbert, Following the discussion at the last TC6 meeting in Cape Town, it would be nice to recommend a second software (besides the Confman freeware) to handle paper reviewing, and add a link to it on the TC6 web page. The system is Cyberchair and the URL is: http://www.cyberchair.org/ CyberChair is used for the online submission and review process. CyberChair is -more or less- based on a paper by Oscar Nierstrasz, called 'Identify the Champion'. There is also support for the preparation of the proceedings (using the format required for Springer Verlag). CyberChair is continuously being updated to include new ideas, and suggestions by its users. The version that is currently available for download was introduced for ECOOP 2000. CyberChair is free software (GNU General Public License).
