FW: IFIP - On new WG

von Augusto Casaca

Dear TC6 members and especially Volker, I have received the following message from Prof. Camarinha de Matos from TC5. I would like to know your comments, if any, to his proposal. I ask especially Volker to analyse how this proposal can co-exist with WG 6.11. My objective is to know what is TC6 position regarding this proposal when it is discussed in the next Technical Assembly. In a separate mail I will send you the aims and scope of the proposed new WG. Please let me have your comments until July 5th. Best regards Augusto -----Original Message----- From: Luis M. Camarinha-Matos [mailto:cam@uninova.pt] Sent: quarta-feira, 12 de Junho de 2002 15:57 To: augusto.casaca(a)inesc.pt Subject: IFIP - On new WG Importance: High Dear colleague, As you know, there was recently an initiative inside TC to create a new Working Group WG 5.5 COOPERATION INFRASTRUCTURE FOR VIRTUAL ENTERPRISES AND ELECTRONIC BUSINESS - "COVE". TC5 Chairman (Gus Olling) asked me to contact you as it seems you had some questions regarding potential overlapping of the Aims & Scope of this WG and other WGs. As you know, Virtual Enterprises / Virtual Organizations is a truly multi-disciplinary area that requires contributions from many disciplines. The only way real progress in this -- as well as in many other areas -- can be achieved is through the involvement of people with different backgrounds. During the "launching phase" I was successful in getting the involvement and commitment of a good number of well-known experts in the area of VE/VO from many geographical regions (Europe, USA, Canada, Latin America, Asia). These people have been involved in several important international projects on Virtual Enterprises. When trying to define the Aims & Scope we tried, naturally, to cover in a consistent way the most important topics required for the area. I understand that this set of topics might involve a number of issues that are also topics of interest of others TCs and WGs. In my opinion this might be a very positive factor as it can create the opportunity for an increasing cooperation among TCs within IFIP. In the past of IFIP -- again in my opinion -- there hasn't been much cooperation even within the same TC. Given the current dynamics and trends of the scientific development, I think that we should not have closed groups but perhaps allowing some overlapping may be one of the driving forces to increase the dynamic cooperation among the various groups. I would very much appreciate if you could spend some minutes on this issue and let me know your opinion about the subject. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Reflections Dear All, Our Spring Campaign was announced on 25 March and there are only 30 hours left to summer. Tomorrow, at 15:24 CET summer comes to the Northern Hemisphere. 15:24 will bring an end to our countdown and the Delivery Co. will close down for a rejuvenating 2 week vacation until 8 July :-) We hope Our Spring campaign will leave positive impressions. Here are some measurements to reflect on; Quantitatively, - Over 35 Circular messages were sent to the IFIP community, not counting our other circulars to GA, members societies and specialized bodies - Some 15 IFIP new books were publicized; two e-books were produced by the Delivery Co. - The IFIP Event Calendar includes 75 registered conferences for 2002 and more are coming in - The IFIP Portal for on line publications was developed and introduced - 2 new applications for IFIP membership were submitted and CLEI publicized its intentions for regional full membership. Qualitatively, - Our member societies and volunteers have reacted positively to the usefulness of the provided information, services and support - IFIP's reputation as a leading international IT organization has opened possibilities for new partnerships - Many of our members are proud of IFIP [i.e. Bulgaria and Hungary count on IFIP for the 2003 Neumann and Atanasoff centenary celebrations] - UNESCO confirmed IFIP as "an essential partner" whose cooperation is "vigorous and highly appreciated" - The IT-STAR initiative continues successfully with more members on board - a focused program and an effective Congress 2002 publicity campaign stretch well beyond IFIPland We also have other important matters to reflect on, the main one being YOU OUT THERE, the IFIP community. You are GREAT! We should add tolerant, generous, considerate, .... There is no IFIP and no Delivery Co. without you! Thank you for all your support, friendship and encouragement. Our Spring campaign and its final countdown is an expression of our appreciation! We will say our good summer wishes tomorrow but let us assure you now that with the Spring campaign we have not exhausted our arsenal of ideas and great products. We still have several up our sleeves which you will hear about in July. The Delivery Co. @15:24 tomorrow winter will begin in the Southern Hemisphere. It's 37 C here and we envy our colleagues in Argentina, Australia and South Africa where it must be refreshingly cool. -------------------------------- Plamen Nedkov Executive Director, IFIP Hofstrasse 3, A-2361 Laxenburg, Austria Tel: +43 2236 73616 Fax: +43 2236 736169 http://www.ifip.org/

Give me a few days" Pierre Bobillier "I am happy to participate" Ashley Goldsworthy "I am ready ...

We are now pleased to announce the complete 22 page publication of the "The Day of the President - The Full Story" at http://www.ifip.or.at/secretariat/pres_comb.pdf The interviews are rearranged chronologically with an introduction, announcements, tributes and photos for a concise account of 42 years of developments and trends witnessed by the nine living Presidents.

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: sexta-feira, 21 de Junho de 2002 10:31 To: all Subject: [IFIP] Information Release: WSIS - A Digital Opportunity Information Release [Information poverty is a reality for much of the world. 83 countries still have a teledensity below 10 lines for every 100 inhabitants; 25 countries still have a teledensity below one per cent. The situation is worse for Internet access. Some 61 countries have less than one percent Internet use. The services are often prohibitive to use due to high prices. "A call from the United States to Switzerland costs less than five US cents a minute, whereas a call to many parts of Africa costs over one US Dollar per minute, or twenty times more. If the price came down, African citizens would better be able to join the international community".] This is part of an ITU Press release entitled "World Leaders must shape the direction of the 'Information Society'" and available at http://www.itu.int/newsroom/press_releases/2002/15.html It reports on the speech of the ITU Secretary General at the UN General Assembly in New York and outlines the objectives of The World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) whose first phase will be in Geneva in December 2003 and the second phase in Tunis in 2005. WSIS will be the outcome of a wide variety of inputs, Action Plans and Preparatory Committees. PrepCom1 is scheduled for 1-5 July 2002 in Geneva. The International Council for Science (ICSU -- http://www.icsu.org ) and IFIP agreed this week to join efforts for a Science and Technology session as part of PrepCom1 on 2 July which will address the Science & Technology contributions for the Information Society including public domain and digital divide issues. Dr. Chrisanthi Avgerou, IFIP TC 9 Vice Chair and WG 9.4 Chair, is scheduled to speak on the Social implications of information technologies in developing countries.
