Dear all,
the IFIP treasurer (Dipak Khakhar, email see below) has presented
the TC budgets (see annex) and in particular the DCSC (developing country
support committee) funds for 2005.
*** If a TC6 conference wants to get a support from DCSC
then the organisor should send a request as soon as possible
to Dipak (deadline August 16) with a copy to me. ***
DCSC could be interesting for (at least) the following conferences in 2005:
Working Conference on Networking for Metropolitan Area Networks;
Working Conference on Electronic Government
WG 6.2 + 6.11;
March 28 - 31, 2005; Ho-Chi-Minh City (Vietnam);
Open Conference; 7th Conference on Mobile and Wireless Communications
Networks (MWCN'05)
WG6.2 + WG6.8 + IEEE
Fall, 2005; Marrakesh (Morocco);
Email contact: Hamid Aghvami
Best regards
Otto

>Please find the TCs budget in the attachment.
Please note that I have budgeted 20000 EUR for DCSC grants for year 2005
in IFIP budget.
I am looking forward to grant requests from you, if possible before 16 August
so that I can put approved grant in DCSC report.
Please note that the same condition as previous years applies to the grant.
That is to developing country which are full members of IFIP.

Subject: Forthcoming IFIP TC 6 Meeting
Dear Our Guests,
The venue of the next TC6 meeting will be Ericsson's premises in Budapest,
Hungary.
Address: Budapest, Irínyi József u. 4-20. , XI. district
The meeting room is on the ground floor (for English people first floor)
close to the reception.
As you have probably known on Sunday evening there will be a boat trip on
the River Danube.
Please indicate whether you have an accompaning person with you who will
also take part in this evening program.
I kindly ask you to let me know if you have special food request (vegetarian
or other).
If you have not reserved your hotel room yet, please do it. Most of you
will stay at Hotel Korona.
(If you choose Hotel Korona please indicate that you come to Ericsson, to
the IFIP TC6 meeting, because the 88 EUs price is a special Ericsson rate).
You can find the requested information about the hotels below.
If you need help with the hotel booking or any other matters please do not
hesitate to contact me.
We are looking forward to meeting you in Budapest!
Best regards
Gabriella

Dear TC6 members,
The deadline for hotel registration in Libon ended yesterday. I managed to
get an extension of that deadline until September 13th. Please remember that
the hotel cannot guarantee rooms after that date. I would thank also that
those of you who come to the Lisbon meeting, but are not staying in the
Melia Hotel, please let me know.
Best regards
Augusto
Dear TC6 members,
Enclosed is a list of hotels around either the conference or the TC6 meeting place.
All the hotels are located in the center of Paris and are close to the metro line 10 that serves either Rue des Ecoles (metro Odeon) for the AN'06 conference, or the IFIP meeting place (metro La Motte Piquet Grenelle):
Room Gerard Noguez, 7th floor
8 rue du Capitaine Scott
75015 Paris
(Access : http://www.lip6.fr/Laboratoire/acces.html )
For Otto Spaniol: Due to the paralelism between the AN'2006 conference and the working group meeting, is it possible to consider to begin the meeting on Friday 2:00pm and finish the meeting by Saturday end of the afternoon? This will permit to participate in the morning session of Friday?
The TC6 dinner will be Friday evening. As the ticket price is much better when spending a saturday night, this should be possible.
Best regards,
Guy

Dear all,
thank you very much for the first informations received
concerning your attendance or non-attendance.
A remark about the hotels:
I have attached the list which was provided by Guy Pujolle.
Apparently this list is not identical to the list for
the AN'06 conference.
Guy's list might be a subset of hotels which are convenient
both for the conference and for the meeting which are at different
places.
If you should have already booked a room in a hotel from the AN´06 list
which is not on Guy's list then you might probably keep this
reservation since the metro system in Paris is so convenient
that it will be easy (and quite fast) to reach both the
conference and the meeting location from anywhere in Paris
(and even from Paris Banlieue).
Best wishes
Otto

BEST PAPER AWARD INLCUDED
Advances in technology have made deployment of miniature sensors a realistic proposition. Low-power, inexpensive smart devices with multiple on-board sensors are connected through wireless links so as to form a collaborative sensor network to perform a
specific task. As a result, it opens up a new paradigm of ubiquitous computing and enables a range of applications that are previously unrealizable or too costly to be realized. However, given the limitation of on-board hardware, one of the key areas
towards achieving superior performance is through software implementation. The workshop is intended to bring together industry experts and researchers to share novel techniques, algorithms and software implementation for sensor networks, and to discuss
the current status, technical challenges, standards, fundamental issues, and future services and applications in the form of panels and technical presentation. Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:
1. Operating System
2. Efficient algorithms
3. Protocol design considerations
4. Performance analysis
5. Performance related issues
6. Cross-layered design considerations
7. Sensor applications and their impact on sensor network architectures
8. Deployment issues and scenarios
9. Middleware
10. Sensor network security
11. Sensor network design and modeling
