Dear TC6 members,
Please find the updated TC6 delegates list in attach. I would thank if
you could inform me on any error that you find until the end of this
week.
Best regards
Augusto Casaca
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
Our apologies if you receive multiple copies. Just a reminder

Dear all,
many of you may have asked why Tadao Saito was seemingly less active.
The reason is that he got a new job (congratulations) and that his communication link
to TC6 was, therefore, unfortunately broken for a while.
His new address is:
Prof. Dr. Tadao Saito
Chief Scientist
Toyota Infotechnology Center
2-1-23 Nakameguro,Meguroku
Tokyo 153-0061 Japan
phone +81-3-5723-2600
fax +81-3-5723-2690
Email saito(a)jp.toyota-itc.com
I made the correction in our group exploder (thus Tadao is now allowed to distribute emails
via that list).
Herbert, would you please do the correction, too, in the web pages?
Best regards
Otto

Third International Network Conference
Call for Papers
16-18 July 2002, Plymouth, United Kingdom
http://www.plymouth.ac.uk/inc2002
Invitation to INC 2002
======================
We invite you to participate in the International Network Conference 2002
to be held in Plymouth, UK, from 16-18th July 2002. This conference, the
third in a series of such events, will bring together leading figures from
both academia and industry to present and discuss the latest advances in
networking technologies from both research and commercial perspectives.
The first event, INC 98, was held in Plymouth in 1998, attracting an
international audience and papers on a wide range of topics. This success
was continued with INC 2000, with delegates attending from 18 countries.
Feedback from conference delegates at both events was extremely positive
and it is intended that INC 2002 will be similarly successful.
The 2002 conference will again take place in the historic city of
Plymouth, on the south-west coast of England. The event will be held over
three days, encompassing presentations delivered by researchers from
across the international community. Social events and a conference banquet
will also take place, giving an opportunity to exchange state of the art
results and advances in both formal and informal settings.
The conference is co-sponsored by the Institution of Electrical Engineers,
the British Computer Society, Orange Personal Communications Services
Limited, MCB University Press (Emerald), and the international journal
Internet Research. You are warmly invited to participate in this
conference and we look forward to welcoming you to INC 2002.
Dr Steven Furnell
Conference Chairman
