Subject: [IFIP] Deadline extended + more
Happy New Year!
Many of you were away for the holidays and some of you actually continue to
be away from your machines. With this in mind, and so as to give a chance
to everyone to participate in IFIP's New Year's Lottery [
http://www.ifip.or.at/ifip_lottery.htm ], we extend the deadline for the
submission of your replies to 17 January.
Please visit http://www.ifip.or.at/ifip_lottery.htm and send your mail to
<bb(a)ifip.or.at> Who knows, you might be the lucky winner of the free
registration for IFIP's Congress 2004 in Toulouse.
Since we have kicked off the 2003 circulars, here is a bit of fresh news
from the New Year's mail:
***New TC Chairs from 1 January 2003***
We are pleased to welcome Prof. Takayasu Ito, Dept of Computer and
Mathematical Sciences, Graduate School of Information Sciences,Tohoku
University, Sendai, JAPAN as the new TC 1 Chair. Takayasu was the program
committee chair of the first very successful IFIP conference on
Theoretical Computer Science, August 2000 in Sendai. We are also pleased to
welcome Prof. Jan Wibe, NTNU, Trondheim, Norway as the new TC 3 Chair. Jan
is an IFIP Insider and most of you will remember him as Chair of the
International Program Committee of Congress 2002 in Montreal. We wish
Takayasu and Jan success.
We take this opportunity to heartily thank the outgoing TC 1 and TC 3
Chairs, Giorgio Ausiello and Brian Samways, for all their efforts on behalf
of IFIP. We hope Giorgio and Brian will continue maintaining close contact
and wish them good fortune in all future activities.
***People***
We have tried at various occasions to write about veterans who have helped
establish IFIP activities. From our New Year's mail we selected one note
from a person with outstanding contributions to IFIP of whom, we are sure,
few of you have heard of for quite a while and would enjoy to read this.
His name is Algirdas Avizienis and here is what he said: "Dear Plamen -
thank you for the informative and entertaining messages and best wishes for
the coming year 2003. After 40 enjoyable years at Caltech's Jet Propulsion
Lab and UCLA Computer Science Department in Los Angeles, I have returned to
my native Lithuania - the Informatics Faculty at Vytautas Magnus University
in Kaunas (my birthplace), Lithuania. I most certainly will continue my
participation in IFIP activities - please keep the emails coming..."
Algirdas Avizienis (Ph.D. 1960 Illinois; D.H.C. 1985 Toulouse ) is Founding
Chairman (1980-1986) of WG 10.4 and recipient of the Silver Core. Algirdas
presented papers at the IFIP WCCs in Munich (62), New York (65) and
Edinburgh (68), was a session chairman at Ljubljana (71) and panel
organizer and chairman at Stockholm (74). He had an invited paper for the
Congress in Toronto (77) In 1979 he organized and chaired a Working
Conference at EUROIFIP in London. In 1989 he had an invited paper at the
Congress in San Francisco.
*** Visibility of IFIP Publications ***
At the end of 2002, Michael Ley, the Manager of the Computer Science
Bibliography DB, wrote:
"Dear Plamen, some numbers about IFIP publications in DBLP ... entry point:
http://www.informatik.uni-trier.de/~ley/db/series/ifip/index.html
DBLP indexes now (on the paper level) 152 IFIP Conference Proceedings
(Kluwer, Chapman & Hall) + 99 IFIP Transactions (North Holland / Elsevier)
+ several volumes published by other publishers. During 2002 DBLP has grown
from 250000 bibliographic records (Dec. 2001) to > 333333 bibliographic
records ...
Best Regards & Best Season's Greetings, Michael"
We wrote in June 2002 that Michael and the Delivery Co have reached a
strategic agreement for all future IFIP titles to be referenced at DBLP
shortly after publication.
All the best for 2003,
The Delivery Co.

Dear all IFIP friends,
January 1, 2003 is the first day of a new year for which I wish you
health, happiness, professional success and peace in the world.
January 1, 2003 is also the official date of the 20th anniversary of the
Internet. It is indeed on January 1, 1983 that ARPANET officially
switched from the NCP protocol to TCP/IP.
On this anniversary let us wish for the Internet the same enthusiasm,
dynamism and success to reach in 20 years a new stage of stabilization.
