ICI 2005 invites high-quality recent research results in the areas of Mobile and Wireless Communications, optical communications and networking, the next generation of Internet, Application to Electronic and Mobile Commerce. INTERNET access and broadband technologies facilitate the way we do business. Optical and Wireless technologies have a worldwide installed base and widely available on PCs, peripherals, embedded systems and inter-satellite links. The main goal of the conference is to bring together scientists and engineers who work in these fields. The first IEEE and IFIP International Conference on Internet ICI 2005 will be held in central Asia, Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, September 26 through 29, 2005. ICI 2005 is the first conference in its series aimed at stimulating technical exchange in the emerging and important field of Optical, mobile and wireless Internet and communications networks and its important in Electronic and Mobile Commerce. ICI 2005 seeks to address and capture highly innovative and state of the art research and work in the wireless and Optical industries. The scope of the conference includes a wide range of technical challenges in view of the growing interest for wireless access to Internet and the evolution of third generation cellular systems included ITU IMT/UMTS. The conference also accepts progress on IST European Commission funded research projects. The Authors can present their finding on wireless quality of service, resource management, Ad Hoc and sensor networks. Radio interface design, adaptive antennas and arrays and indoor propagation, measurement and predictions also will be considered. A growing number of digital devices inside homes and the application of Ultra Wide Band (UWB), as well as Spectrum efficiency and low power consumption including low cost and secure wireless personal access are some of the areas to be considered in this conference. Optical communications networks are becoming increasingly important as the demand for high capacity links are required. Dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) is widely deployed at the core networks to accommodate high capacity transport systems. Optical components, such as optical amplifier, tunable filters, transceivers, termination devices and add-drop multi-plexers are becoming more affordable and reliable. Access and metropolitan area networks are increasingly built with optical technologies to overcome the electronic bottleneck at network edges. New components and subsystems for high-speed optical networks offer new design options. The objective of this event is therefore to foster the exchange of information among researchers in these fast-moving fields. The authors can present their finding on new Fibers, optical fiber gratings and devices, optical amplifiers, optical sensing and medical application of fiber optics and opto-electronics.

[Fwd: consierations about your resign]

von Ramon Puigjaner

Dear friens, Following the commitment agreed in the last meeting, please find attached the message I have snd to Harry Perros. Best regards Ramon -------- Original Message -------- Subject: consierations about your resign Date: Fri, 27 May 2005 12:57:01 +0200 From: Ramon Puigjaner <putxi(a)uib.es> To: Harry Perros <hp(a)csc.ncsu.edu> Dear Harry, I am writing to you as Vice-Chairman and on behalf of the IFIP TC6. In the last meeting held three weeks ago in Toronto, your message of resignation as chairman of WG6.10 was discussed. The general feeling of the TC6 members was to ask you to reconsider your decision and that you continue chairing WG6.10. Your efforts to organize and promote WG6.10 were recognized and it was understood that a good deal of the problems that lead to your decision to resign, were problems concerning most WGs. During the meeting the publication policy that the TC6 should apply on the coming events (see attached) was discussed extensively. I think that this touches on issues that bothered you and TC6 is decided to address them and that this publication policy should provide you an answer to several of your complaints. I hope that you will continue to work with us and to push ahead the research in the networking area.

von Nones, Elisabetta

********** APOLOGIZE FOR MULTIPLE POSTING ************** ******************************************************** The new interdisciplinary centre of excellence Microsoft Research - University of Trento Centre for Computational and Systems Biology has been established in the Trento region (Italy). The main objectives and activities of the centre are: Overall objectives 1. To advance the state of knowledge of biological information processing, the aetiology of disease, and potentially new therapies through the creation of a new research centre that will bring together scientists from multiple disciplines to focus on conducting leading research into advanced computational modeling of biological systems. 2. To conduct novel research into defining new computational and communication paradigms that are 'biomimetic' in nature, i.e., based on new principles learned from the research into biological information processing. 3. To exploit the research. This is expected to take the form of the development of new computational tools for enabling the predictive modeling of biological systems and processes for basic and applied research. These tools will help improving health-care, environment monitoring and protection, quality of food as well as developing better therapies and treatments by the pharmaceutical industries. 4. To disseminate and communicate the results of this research for the benefit of the scientific community globally, including publications, open conferences and workshops, and provide freely available, the tools developed in the course of the research for (non-commercial) science. Activities: Calculi for Biology, and 'Biomimetic' computation We attack an open and challenging problem: the definition of a set of basic and general primitives for modeling biological systems directly inspired by biological processes. Hence, the main objective of this theme is to define a calculus for biology and develop a prototype to be applied in the theme of case studies. We also plan to include quantitative information in the definition of the calculus. It is our belief that biological phenomena can serve as valuable source of inspiration for new primitives of process calculi and new computational paradigms. Process calculi, by their own nature, take input and output, and hence communication, as the very basic form of action/reaction between concurrent systems. Concurrency theory-and particularly process algebras-are emerging as a highly promising tool to provide formal foundations to systems biology. This field is evolving rapidly Case studies The main goal of this theme is to validate and tune the work of the previous theme by exploiting the results in software developing tools and helping biologists to do science. Furthermore, the preliminary analysis of real problems will inform the design of suitable primitives. Also, we will build upon the effort of the theme on calculi for the definition of analysis, verification and simulation techniques to acquire new knowledge on the biological realm. A different case study could inform how the languages and techniques devised here could be transposed into the ICT field to improve software quality and to manage complexity. Storing dynamical evolution of biological systems The main goal of this theme is to set-up the mining and access to distributed databases storing information (programs) on the dynamic behaviour of biological systems. Coordination with servers providing the run-time support for non-homogeneous data should also be provided. The knowledge and technology acquired in the first two research themes will be used to populate databases. Detailed information on recruitment can be found at the page http://www.unitn.it/events/microsoft/index_eng.htm following the link recruitment. The selection procedure will take place in the period 'end of May - mid June'. More information on the centre will be available within few days on the web site. Best regards, Corrado Priami
