Dear Otto: I also support the nomination of Harry Perros for the new WG 6.10 Chair. Best Regards, Arun Otto Spaniol <spaniol(a)informatik.rwth-a To: ifip-tc6(a)informatik.rwth-aachen.de achen.de> cc: Sent by: Subject: [ifip-tc6] New WG 6.10 chairman ifip-tc6-bounces(a)lists.RWT H-Aachen.DE 03/18/2004 09:45 AM Dear all, you will remember from our previous meeting in Muscat or from the minutes of that meeting that we are seeking for a successor for Harmen van As as chairman of WG 6.10 (Photonic networking). Harmen's successful chairmanship came to an end after six very successful years; thank you very much, Harmen, for that work. As decided in Muscat, I asked four possible candidates whether they might be interested. Three of them refused by different reasons (see below). Only Harry Perros is interested. According to IFIP bylaws the chairman of a WG is nominated by the TC chairman upon the recommendation of the Technical Committee. We can do the ratification at our next meeting in Athens or - preferably - earlier by electronic consensus. I've asked the WG 6.10 members (there are not too many of them and the email list is already somewhat outdated) whether they might have comments or objections but I don't reallybelieve that I will receive too many of such comments (if any). My questions: - Should we approach even more candidates? - Or alternatively: Would you support Harry Perros as new WG6.10 chairman? Please give me a response until the end of March 2004. A missing response means that you agree that Harry Perros should be the successor of Harmen von As. Nevertheless, I would prefer a positive statmeent instead as of a missing response. Best regards Otto Best regards Otto ------------------------------------------------------- I copy the answers obtained by the candidates here: Dear Professor Spaniol, thank you for offering me the chance to compete for the position of WG 6.10 chairman. Unfortunately, after finishing my chairmanship of COST 266 management committee, my main activities in the field of telecommunications have become more general that include the regulatory issues. Therefore, I am unable to take up your kind offer. Best regards, Anton Kuchar --------------------------------------------------------- Dear Dr. Spaniol, Thank you very much for your email - I am honored by your offer to become a chair person WG 6.10. Unfortunately due to a number of appointments I have this year, I am afraid I will not be able to do a good service to the research community and IFIP, and dedicate sufficient time to that role. I hope however to be able to help in other ways - so, please do not hesitate to come back to me. For your convenience, I am attaching you my short resume - I hope we'll keep in touch. Thanks again. Kindest regards, Admela Jukan -- Dr. Admela Jukan currently serves as the Program Director in Networking Research at National Science Foundation in Washington, DC, and she also is a Visiting Professor at Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, Georgia. Dr. Jukan received the received M.S. and Ph.D. degrees Polytechnic University of Milan (Milan, Italy) and Vienna University of Technology (Vienna, Austria), respectively. Prior to coming to the US, she has been with the Vienna University of Technology in Austria (Senior Lecturer). In 1999 and 2000, she was a visiting scientist at Lucent Technologies, Bell Laboratories, where she was working on optical-IP networking. She has engaged in a variety of European network research projects, in particular the European research establishments for the Actions ACTS and COST. Dr. Jukan is the author of numerous scientific publications, she has edited three and authored one book, she is the award winner for the best innovative research proposals of Sprint Labs and Vienna Academic Anniversary Foundation and she is actively involved in organization and scientific leadership of a number of conferences and workshops in the field of networking systems and technologies. Her research interests include network protocols and architecture, in particular performance evaluation, intelligent network services, control and management. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Otto, first I wish to express my gratitude and happyness for having been mentioned as a possible Chairman of the WG 6.10 of IFIP to you and and the other colleagues of the committee who put forward my name. Unfortunately, due to the fact that Ericsson Lab Italy is not involved anymore in the design of optical networks, I am in the difficulty of accepting your kind invitation for opportunity reasons. I am really sorry to decline this invitation, that I would like to accept in other conditions of my company. Anyway, I wish to contribute in some way to other IFIP committees that match with my company current interests. With kindest regards Roberto Sabella ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hallo Otto Guy Pujolle spoke to me about it, and as I told him I would be interested in becoming the chairman of 6.10. I am not a member of 6.10, because I was not asked to join in, despite the fact that I have been working on optical networks full tilt since 1995. I do not know who the members are of this group. Also, I cannot attend your meeting in Athens, because I have to be back home on May 15th for my son's University graduation. Below please find a short biographical CV, and a vision statement. Cheers Harry BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH H. G. Perros is a Professor of Computer Science, an Alumni Distinguished Graduate Professor and Program Coordinator of the Master of Science degree in Computer Networks at NC State University. He received the B.Sc. degree in Mathematics in 1970 from Athens University, Greece, the M.Sc. degree in Operational Research with Computing from Leeds University, England, in 1971, and the Ph.D. degree in Operations Research from Trinity College Dublin, Ireland, in 1975. He has held visiting faculty positions at INRIA, Rocquencourt, France (1979), NORTEL, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina (1988-89 and 1995-96) and University of Paris 6, France (1995-96, 2000, and 2002). He has published extensively in the area of performance modelling of computer and communication systems, and he has organized several national and international conferences. In 1994, he published a monograph entitled "Queueing networks with blocking: exact and approximate solutions", Oxford Press, and in 2001 a textbook entitled "An introduction to ATM networks", Wiley. From 1995 to 2002 he was the chairman of the IFIP Working Group 6.3 on the Performance of Communication Systems, and currently he is a member of IFIP Working Groups 7.3, 6.3 and 6.2. He is also an IEEE Senior Member. His current research interests are in the areas of optical networks. VISION As I mentioned above I do not know who are the members of 6.10, and I was not able to find out though the TC6 web site. I suspect, though, that the membership is a small group of mostly European researchers. So, my first action will be to enlarge it to about 30 to 40 members, and also create a web site. The main thrust of the group will be on optical networking and not on the optical physical layer. The main issue to resolve is the optical networking conference. There is an annual conference sponsored by the 6.10, and also there is a new conference on optical networks sponsored by TC 6 (the first one will take place in Pisa this Fall). Obviously, these two have to be merged into one conference. Then, in USA there is Opticomm, which is owned by SPIE. We will need to come to an arrangement with Opticomm, so that we do not compete for the same papers and attendees. If we move fast, we may be able to dominate the conference scene, since Opticomm is not yet a well-established conference _______________________________________________ ifip-tc6 mailing list ifip-tc6(a)lists.RWTH-Aachen.DE http://MailMan.RWTH-Aachen.DE/mailman/listinfo/ifip-tc6

CFP: Workshop on Privacy in the Electronic Society

von Sabrina De Capitani di Vimercati

[Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] CALL FOR PAPERS 3rd WORKSHOP ON PRIVACY IN THE ELECTRONIC SOCIETY Washington, DC, USA - October 28, 2004 Sponsored by ACM SIGSAC Held in association with 11th ACM CCS 2004 http://seclab.dti.unimi.it/wpes2004 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Privacy issues have been the subject of public debates and the need for privacy-aware policies, regulations, and techniques has been widely recognized. Goal of this workshop is to discuss the problems of privacy in the global interconnected societies and possible solutions to it. The 2004 Workshop is the third in what we hope will be a yearly forum for papers on all the different aspects of privacy in today's electronic society. The first two workshops in the series were held in Washington, in conjunction with the 9th ACM CCS conference and with the 10th ACM CCS conference, respectively. The success of the first two editions of the workshop and the increased interest of the community in privacy issues, is the main reason for repeating the event. The workshop seeks submissions from academia and industry presenting novel research on all theoretical and practical aspects of electronic privacy, as well as experimental studies of fielded systems. We encourage submissions from other communities such as law and business that present these communities' perspectives on technological issues. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - anonymity, pseudonymity, unlinkability - business model with privacy requirements - data protection from correlation and leakage attacks - electronic communication privacy - information dissemination control - privacy-aware access control - privacy in the digital business - privacy enhancing technologies - privacy policies and human rights - privacy and anonymity in Web transactions - privacy threats - privacy and confidentiality management - privacy in the electronic records - privacy in health care and public administration - public records and personal privacy - privacy and virtual identity - personally identifiable information - privacy policy enforcement - privacy and data mining - relationships between privacy and security - user profiling - wireless privacy PAPER SUBMISSIONS Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings. Papers should be at most 15 pages excluding the bibliography and well-marked appendices (using 11-point font and reasonable margins on letter-size paper), and at most 20 pages total. Committee members are not required to read the appendices, and so the paper should be intelligible without them. Papers should have a cover page with the title, authors, abstract and contact information. Authors are invited to submit their contributions electronically through the web site http://seclab.dti.unimi.it/wpes2004/submissions.html. Submission must be in the form of a ps (Postscript), or pdf (Adobe) file. Do NOT submit files formatted for word processing packages (e.g., Microsoft Word or WordPerfect files). Papers must be received by the deadline of June 11, 2004 in order to be considered. Notification of acceptance or rejection will be sent to authors by August 2, 2004. Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their paper will be presented at the workshop. Accepted papers will be published by the ACM in a conference proceedings.

von purdue＠vreme.yubc.net

Dear potential VIP Speaker: We are pleased to invite you, as a VIP Forum speaker, to the CAITA-2004 conference, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana, USA (arrival: Thursday July 8, 2004. and departure Sunday July 11, 2004.). All relevant information and the detailed invitation letter can be found on the web (http://www.internetconferences.net). This is a broadband conference, aimed at bringing together the scientific/technical elite. Keynote: Dr. Dag von Lubitz, Laureate of the Smithsonian Award. Important deadlines: Abstract - March 20 (the deadline is short, but 100 words is easy). Full paper - April 10. We invite participants (mostly from USA, Canada, Mexico, EU, Israel, and Far East) from the following three groups: (1) Well known University professors with a high citation index, (2) VIPs from leading industry, and (3) Talented PhD students from leading universities of the world. So far, at our conferences, in seven cases, Nobel Laureates gave the opening keynote. All those who visited our conferences in the past loved them and like to come back - see the web for the lists of participants of our past conferences. The stress of the conferences is on an active social program to induce creativity thru synergistic interaction, in a special setting. Also, each submitted paper goes to minimum 12 reviewers (mostly to those referenced in the submitted paper). If you plan to submit an abstract/paper, please reply to this e-mail at your earliest convenience, because the conference has a size limitation. Sincerely yours, Prof. Dr. Mileta Tomovic, General Chairman of CAITA-2004 Prof. Dr. Veljko Milutinovic, Program Chair of CAITA-2004 P.S. IPSI Belgrade organizes scientific conferences all over the World, aimed at bringing together the elite of the world research. More details on the Web (www.internetconferences.net). So far, 7 times Nobel Laureates were talking at the opening ceremonies. Those who come once, without exception, like to return. They like the atmosphere (we invest a lot into the social interaction) and especially they like the fact that the review included lots of useful comments (in addition to the professional internal review, we do three types of external review: IPSI, peer, and Google - via Google we find the major references of their research, and we ask them to help with an excellent review). We accept about 50% of the submitted papers, unless we do the conference in a small hotel, in which case the acceptance rate is smaller. Typically we do our conferences in the best hotels of the World (see the Web for "The Best Small Hotels of the World"). If you like that we inform you about our conferences (6 emails per year, for 12 conferences), please let us know. We will be informing you ONLY if you explicitly tell us that you like that to happen. Please, reply to purdue(a)vreme.yubc.net if you have questions or to confirm your desire to be a member of our VIP CLUB!

K B Nair

von Otto Spaniol

Dear all, we received the sad message that Mr. K B Nair (MNCC Malaysia) passed away yesterday night. Many of us knew him quite well. He attended the TC6 meeting in Trivandrum and he prepared a series of SEACOMM conferences where TC6 was significantly involved. Meeting 94/2 was held in Kuala Lumpur in conjunction with SEACOMM'94. One of my "dreams" is that we will be able re-intensify the relations between TC6 and MNCC Malaysia. Best regards Otto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ It is with great sadness and regret that I have to inform you of the demise of Mr. K. B. Nair yesterday night (14 March 2004), after a long illness. He and a group of pioneers were responsible for the formation of MCS, followed by MNCC. As you may know, he also was a pioneer in regional and international ICT cooperation and fellowship. His remains are now at 31, Jalan 14/56, 46100 Petaling Jaya, Selangor Darul Ehsan (Tel: 03-79563179) and will be cremated at the Petaling Jaya Crematorium at Kampong Tunku at 4.00pm (15 March 2004) today. Warmest regards, Lim Chen Yam MNCC
