The deadline for NGC 2002 has been extended by one week to May 24th! Please register papers by May 17, 2002. More details are below or at the conference web site: http://signl.cs.umass.edu/ngc2002 -------- Fourth International Workshop on Networked Group Communication October 23-25, 2002 Boston, Massachusetts, USA Organized in cooperation with ACM SIGCOMM and COST 264 http://signl.cs.umass.edu/ngc2002 The aim of NGC is to allow researchers and practitioners to present the design and implementation techniques for networked group communication. The focus of the workshop is on peer-to-peer, multicast, and networked group communication, ranging from the link layer, through routing, and reliability and traffic control, right up to session and application level control mechanisms. This workshop is the fourth of this international event. The first workshop was in Pisa, Italy, in November 1999; the second was in Stanford, USA, in November 2000; the third was in London, UK, in November 2001. We wish to distinguish NGC as a forum for novel and creative research projects and discussions on the future of networked group communication in academia and industry. To this end, NGC invites you to submit five-page extended abstracts. Authors of accepted papers will be invited to present at the workshop and publish full-length versions of their papers in the workshop proceedings. The extended abstract should represent the paper in "short form." Authors should include full references, figures and significant results when available. The submissions will be judged on significance, originality, clarity, relevance, and correctness. The conference will be held at Holiday Inn, Brookline in Boston, MA. It will start with two half-day tutorials on October 23, 2002. The technical program will include a keynote and invited talks on October 24-25, 2002. Depending on interest level, and suitable proposed topics, there may also be a panel discussion as well as a poster session. Authors are invited to submit papers on any issue related to networked group communication, including: * peer-to-peer applications * applications and services enabled through multicast * wireless and mobile communication * multiplayer games * measurement studies * content distribution * network security * application layer multicast * economic models * novel group communication architectures * routing, naming, address allocation * group and session management techniques * QoS and network engineering * scalability: overheads, stability, analysis, experiments * adaption and congestion control for group communication * heterogeneous group communication * reliable and semi-reliable protocols Important Dates: Paper Registration: May 17, 2002 Submission: May 24, 2002 Notification: July 24, 2002 Camera Ready copy: August 15, 2002 Conference Dates: October 23-25, 2002 Committee: Technical Co-Chairs: Mostafa Ammar (Georgia Tech) Brian Neil Levine (University of Massachusetts Amherst) General Chair: John Byers (Boston University) Technical Committee: Kevin Almeroth UC Santa Barbara Elizabeth Belding-Royer University of California, Santa Barbara Samrat Bhattacharjee Univ.

FW: [IFIP] What's up in IFIPland?

von Augusto Casaca

-----Original Message----- From: owner-ifip_ga(a)ifip.or.at [mailto:owner-ifip_ga@ifip.or.at]On Behalf Of Plamen Nedkov Sent: terca-feira, 14 de Maio de 2002 12:09 To: all Subject: [IFIP] What's up in IFIPland? Dear All, In our message of 25 March [ http://www.ifip.or.at/mail/msg00121.html ] we promised an active Spring campaign to rally the IFIP allies of good. So far, so good! Re. our email "Evaluated in Paris" of 6 May: Many thanks, everyone, for your congratulations. That mail was sent internally but we have also posted it at http://www.ifip.or.at/mail/msg00135.html for those who wish to find out what UNESCO thinks of IFIP. An important part of our Spring campaign was dedicated to developing new partnerships. Here is what we have to report on applications for IFIP membership: 1. CLEI: Centro Latinoamericano de Estudios Informatica (CLEI) is an IFIP regional corresponding member and its members represent 12 Latin American countries. We are in contact with the CLEI President, Prof. Ricardo Baeza Yates, with regard to CLEI's resolve to become an IFIP full regional member. Here is what Ricardo wrote yesterday: "Dear Plamen, I plan to attend the next IFIP Congress in Montreal and apply in person for an upgrade of CLEI's membership." 2. CROATIA: An Information release was circulated about the IT-STAR meeting [ ref. http://www.ifip.or.at/mail/msg00130.html ] which, among other items, stated that the procedure for Croatian membership to IFIP was initiated. The President of the Croatian IT Society (CITS), Mr. Marijan Frkovic, gave us the information package related to CITS' application. Mr. Frkovic also agreed to investigate the interests of organizations from other ex-Yugoslavia republics to join IT STAR and IFIP. Here is what Marijan recently wrote: " Dear Plamen, as I promised last time in Portoroz I am in contact with people from ex yu republics. I had contact with yugoslav society... I hope that we will have minimum one new IT STAR member until the next meeting" 2. CYPRUS: Early this month an email came in with the subject "Cyprus calling" [how nice]! It commenced as follows: "Dear Plamen, Good evening from Cyprus, this is Panicos Masouras Secretary of the Cyprus Computer Society. Perhaps you recall that we exchanged a couple of emails last year on the possibility of the CCS becoming a member of IFIP." This morning, we received a faxed copy of the the CCS application for Full membership with an assurance that the society looks forward to cooperating in promoting IFIP's goals and objectives. IFIP's Admissions Committee will report on these applications with a recommendation to IFIP's General Assembly in Montreal. Until then, we have subscribed their representatives to our e-mailing list. If any of you are aware of other national organizations interested in IFIP membership please be advised that a note on "How to join us" is posted at http://www.ifip.or.at/how_to_join.htm There is much more to come, especially with regard to our "Rhapsody in Maple". You will find out what we mean later this week. Before then, however, let us also report that we had a few complaints; some of you think that we have forgotten our "joke" deal. As a compensation, we offer true stories in the Fun zone below. Servus from IFIPland, The Delivery Co. Fun Zone The following are real statements found on insurance claim forms. Drivers attempted to summarize the details of an accident succinctly: *Coming home, I drove into wrong house and collided with a tree I don't have. *I thought my window was down, but found it was up when I put my head through it. * The other car collided with mine without giving warning of its intentions. * The guy was all over the road. I had to swerve a number of times before I hit him. * I pulled away from the side of the road, glanced at my mother-in-law and headed over the embankment. * In my attempt to kill a fly, I drove into a telephone pole. * I had been shopping for plants all day and was on my way home. As I reached an intersection a hedge sprang up obscuring my vision, and I did not see the other car. * The telephone pole was approaching. I was attempting to swerve out of its way when it struck the front end. * I was thrown from the car as it left the road. I was later found in the ditch by some stray cows. * The indirect cause of the accident was a little guy in a small car with a big mouth. * I had been driving for 40 years when I fell asleep at the wheel and had an accident. * As I approached the intersection a sign suddenly appeared in a place where no stop sign had ever appeared before. I was unable to stop in time to avoid the accident. To avoid hitting the bumper of the car in front, I struck the pedestrian. * My car was legally parked as it backed into the other vehicle. * An invisible car came out of nowhere, struck my car and vanished. * I told the police that I was not injured, but upon removing my hat found that I had a fractured skull. * I was sure the old fellow would never make it to the other side of the curb when I struck him. * The pedestrian had no idea which direction to run, so I ran over him. -------------------------------- Plamen Nedkov Executive Director, IFIP Hofstrasse 3, A-2361 Laxenburg, Austria Tel: +43 2236 73616 Fax: +43 2236 736169 http://www.ifip.org/

FW: [IFIP] New TC6 books

von Augusto Casaca

-----Original Message----- From: owner-ifip_tcchairs(a)ifip.or.at [mailto:owner-ifip_tcchairs@ifip.or.at]On Behalf Of Dorothy Hayden Sent: terça-feira, 14 de Maio de 2002 08:29 To: MS&ED Subject: [IFIP] New TC6 books Dear Member Societies and Editors, You may be interested in this note concerning new IFIP TC6 publications. Best regards, Dorothy ************************************************************ SMART NETWORKS edited by Olli Martikainen , Lappeenranta University of Technology, Finland Kimmo Raatikainen, University of Helsinki, Finland Jenni Hyvärinen, Lappeenranta University of Technology, Finland Smart Networks comprises the proceedings of Smartnet'2002, the seventh conference on Intelligence in Networks, which was sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) and organized by Working Group 6.7. It was held in Saariselkä, Finland, in April 2002. The conference series closely reflects the developments in networking. Currently we are facing two conflicting trends: the increasing popularity of the Internet and the growth of mobile communications. The traditional Internet approach is to regard a network as a dummy pipe of bits and place all the intelligence in the end-devices. The traditional telecom approach is to regard the end-devices as dummy senders or receivers of bits and to put all the intelligence in the network. For fixed-line access to the Internet using a powerful PC, the Internet approach is plausible. However, for a nomadic user, who sometimes accesses services through a fixed-line Internet connection and, at other times, through a wireless connection using a restricted-capability access device, the situation becomes intolerable. Intelligence needs to be distributed and partially replicated in end-user devices, access networks, and the core network. The presentations in this volume consider these new trends and cover three major topics: platform software, services, and protocols. The sessions on platform software address various aspects of software infrastructure in networks including object-orientation, components, agents, and plug-and-play. The session on services includes interactive TV, group communication, and location awareness. The session on protocols discusses bandwidth brokers, authentication, and protocol testing.

With the latter, it was closely involved in activities linked to information technology, distance education and the application of the new information technologies, contributing to the production of several reference works including the UNESCO/IFIP Curriculum for Secondary Schools, translated into several languages. IFIP took part in meetings of the Communication and Information Sector on the new information technologies and is involved in the preparations for the World Information Summit (2003). With regard to its obligations as a partner admitted to formal relations, the Federation contributed to the sexennial report and replied to the Director-General's consultations on the C/4 and C/5 documents. Its collective cooperation was vigorous and highly appreciated. It took an active part in strengthening the mechanisms established by the 1995 Directives, in particular in its capacity as member of the NGO-UNESCO Liaison Committee, whose website it helped to create. Its interest in the impact of the new information technologies and the strengthening of cooperation with developing countries make it an essential partner in the implementation of the Organization's programmes in this field. Recommendation of the Director-General: Renewal of formal consultative relations." ************************************ Good wishes, The Delivery Co. -------------------------------- Plamen Nedkov Executive Director, IFIP Hofstrasse 3, A-2361 Laxenburg, Austria Tel: +43 2236 73616 Fax: +43 2236 736169 http://www.ifip.org/
