Dear TC6 colleagues,
As usual TC6 has received an invitation to join
the IFIP World Computer Congress (WCC 2008) that
will take place in Milan (Italy) in September
2008: http://www.wcc2008.org/
I don't see any incentive for TC6 to be involved in WCC any longer.
If you think otherwise, or would like to take an
active role in WCC 2008, please let me know.

Web Intelligence (WI) has been recognized as a new direction for
scientific research and development to explore the fundamental roles
as well as practical impacts of Artificial Intelligence (AI) (e.g.,
knowledge representation, planning, knowledge discovery and data
mining, intelligent agents, and social network intelligence) and
advanced Information Technology (IT) (e.g., wireless networks,
ubiquitous devices, social networks, and data/knowledge grids) on the
next generation of Web-empowered products, systems, services, and
activities. It is one of the most important as well as promising IT
research fields in the era of Web and agent intelligence.
The 2007 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Conference on Web Intelligence
(WI'07) will be jointly held with the 2007 IEEE/WIC/ACM International
Conference on Intelligent Agent Technology (IAT'07), the 2007 IEEE
International Conference on BioInformation and BioMedicine (BIBM'07),
and the 2007 IEEE International Conference on Granular Computing
(GrC'07) for providing synergism among the four research areas. It
will provide opportunities for technical collaboration beyond that of
previous conferences. The four conferences will have a joint opening,
keynote, reception, and banquet. Attendees only need to register for
one conference and can attend workshops, sessions and tutorials across
the four conferences. We are also planning a joint panel and joint
paper sessions that discuss common problems in the four areas.
+++++++++++
Highlights
+++++++++++
The conference will be held in Silicon Valley, California. Many
high-tech companies and three distinguished universities (Stanford,
UC Berkely and UCSC) are just around the corner. The highlight of the
conference is that a unique forum consisting of a half-day industry/
demo track and free discussion will be organized to link industries
and academics. Leading IT companies like IBM, Google, and Yahoo etc
will present at the conference.
The area now known as Silicon Valley has been a center of
technological development since the 1950's. The name Silicon Valley
stems from the early 1970's, when the area had become the center for
many semiconductor companies. While still hosting semiconductor and
microprocessor companies, the region now hosts the headquarters of
high tech companies of every kind, including many of the best known
and most prestigious names in personal computers, Web search, Internet
auctions, networking, storage, databases, etc.

Dear TC6 colleagues,
I'd like to inform you of the following financial procedure.
When the organizer of an IFIP TC6 event does not
pay the IFIP fee as planned in the IFIP Event
Request Form, IFIP will deduct 25% of the amount
from the TC6 funds (Because the fee goes normally
with 75% to the TC6 funds and with 25% to IFIP
General fund).
In other words, TC6 does not get the usual 75%
and has to pay the 25% to IFIP, which means that
TC6 and only TC6 loses money (100% of the fee in
fact).
This procedure has been decided at EB meeting
Dec10th 2005 and TC Chairs have been informed at
TA meeting at Council 2006 in Mallorca. It seems
that this message was not conveyed to TC6 at that
time, but this is now repaired.
This rule is already applied to one of our events, namely I3E2006.
So be careful, especially the WG chairs and the steering committees.
Best regards,
Guy

WoWMoM 2007 -- Call for Demos
=============================
http://www.tml.hut.fi/IEEE-wowmom/demo.html
Deadline: 28 February 2007
The demo track of IEEE WoWMoM 2007 solicits demonstrations in the
world of wireless, mobile, and multimedia communications. We are
looking for demonstrations of recent or ongoing research work that
will showcase the research and inspire discussion and interaction with
the attendees at WoWMoM 2007. We invite participation from both
academia and industry demonstrating novel research results.
Demonstrations will be presented in a designated demonstration slot in
the conference program. The number of demos presented will be kept
low in order to allow the full attention of the conference
participants.
WoWMoM 2007 will have a "Best Demo Award" based upon both the
technical contribution and the demonstrator "showcase".
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* System prototypes and experiences
* QoS for voice and video in wireless networks
* IP-based wireless multimedia applications and systems
* Multimedia multicasting and broadcasting
* Handoff and mobility management
* Seamless internetworking and self-organization
* Network management and control
* Context-aware wireless multimedia applications
* Location mechanism and services
* Content management and distribution
* Multimedia applications and systems in vehicular, mesh,
and ad-hoc networks
Demo proposals shall be short papers of no more than 3 pages (IEEE
conference template, font size no less than 10pt) which will be
reviewed by the Program Committee. The proposals should introduce the
background, describe the key contributions of the author(s), and state
what the demonstrator will show.
A one-page appendix shall provide a comprehensive description of the
demonstration and list all the technical requirements such as
equipment (to be brought by the presenters) and other resources (such
as # WLAN channels, Internet access, etc.), and also include a
description of the demo presentation, e.g., are visitors involved, is
a prototype presented that can be used by visitors, etc.
The short papers of the accepted demo proposals will be included as a
conference supplement, published by IEEE. It serves to inform the
audience of the details behind the demo, and as a permanent record of
the demo. Both the short paper and appendix must be submitted as a
single PDF document by 28 February 2007.

CALL FOR PAPERS
MobiCom 2007
The Thirteenth Annual International Conference
on Mobile Computing and Networking
September 9-14, 2007
Montreal, QC, Canada
http://www.sigmobile.org/mobicom/2007/
Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE
ACM MobiCom is the premier international conference dedicated to
addressing the challenges in the areas of mobile computing and
wireless and mobile networking. It has served as an exciting
international forum since 1995, addressing networks, systems,
algorithms, and applications that support the symbiosis of mobile
computers and wireless networks. MobiCom is a highly selective
conference focusing on all issues in mobile computing and wireless and
mobile networking at the link layer and above. New this year, Mobicom
will be jointly held with ACM Mobihoc. The two conferences will run
in parallel, and will have many joint plenary sessions (such as the
keynote, panels, and welcoming reception).
Authors are invited to submit full papers, challenges papers, student
posters,
and research demos and exhibits, presenting new research
related to the theory or practice of mobile computing and/or wireless and
mobile networking. All submissions must describe original research,
not published or currently under review for another conference or
journal. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Architectures, protocols, and algorithms to cope with mobility,
limited bandwidth, limited power and/or intermittent connectivity
* Applications and services for mobile users
* Cyber-physical computing and networking
* Delay/disruption tolerant networks
* Fundamental understanding of mobile computing and wireless networking
* Implementations and experimental testbeds for mobile/wireless networks
* Integration and interworking of wired and wireless networks
* Modeling, measurement and simulation of mobile networks
* Mobile ad hoc and sensor networks
* Operating system and middleware support for mobile computing and
networking
* Performance evaluation of mobile and wireless networks and systems
* Protocols exploiting dynamic spectrum, UWB, MIMO, directional antennas
* Resource management and quality-of-service for real-time traffic
support
* Security, privacy, and fault-tolerance of mobile/wireless systems
* Wireless access technologies (e.g., mesh networks, personal area
networks)
