Dear all, please find enclosed the publications agreement between IFIP and "Springer Science + Business media" together with the bulk price list. Leon Straus (the responsible from 's side wrote to the TC chairmen: ----------------- You can distribute this version (including the price lists) to your working group chairs for information. Please ask them to treat this in an appropriate way, I don´t think it is wise if our contract is floating around on the web or elsewhere (nb: this is my personal opinion and statement). ----------------- Thus, I ask you to treat the contract information "in an appropriate way". Best wishes Otto

SANPA04: Call for Participation to Second International Workshop on Sensor and Actor Network Protocols and Applications
by Ozgur Baris Akan 11 Aug '04

11 Aug '04

We apologize in advance if you receive multiple copies of this CFP. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- SANPA 2004 Second International Workshop on Sensor and Actor Network Protocols and Applications August 22, 2004 Boston, Massachusetts, USA in Conjunction with Mobiquitous 2004 http://www.sanpa.org CALL FOR PARTICIPATION ---------------------------------------------------------------------- SCOPE: Wireless Sensor and Actor Networks (WSANs) are fast emerging as a new sensing paradigm based on the collaborative effort of large number of sensors deployed close to or inside the phenomenon to be observed, and have the potential of providing diverse services to numerous applications. The realization of WSANs require intensive technical research efforts especially in power aware scalable wireless ad hoc communications protocols due to their unusual application requirements and unique constraints such as the following: - WSANs are generally composed of large number of sensor nodes that have limited computational and storage capacity. - In many applications, sensor nodes can be randomly scattered in unreachable regions. - The sensed phenomenon must be acted on by the actor nodes in field in a timely and accurate manner. - The lifetime of a sensor network is generally limited to the battery lifetime of sensor nodes. SANPA 2004 is intended to provide a forum for researchers to present their contributions as technical papers related to communication protocols for WSANs, data management, access, aggregation and fusion techniques, and sensor network applications. SANPA 2004 will continue and build upon the success of SNPA 2003 (held in conjunction with ICC 2003). IMPORTANT INFORMATION: - Workshop location: http://www.sanpa.org/ - Program: http://www.sanpa.org/program.htm - Registration: http://www.mobiquitous.org/rform.html - E-mail: sanpa(a)ece.gatech.edu

RE: Fw: tc fund procedure
by strous＠iae.nl 10 Aug '04

10 Aug '04

Dear Gus, I hope to avoid a discussion at GA level. My proposed steps were and still are: - discussion on the only open issue during our tc chair dinner; - discussion with the Finance Committee; - hopefully agreement of all of us; - formal minuting of this in TA; - inform EB and GA about the agreed upon procedure (this can happen after the GA meeting); - ask EB to take care of administrative process to replace Standing Order Supplement 8. However, the "old" proposal has been included in the treasurer´s report which has been put on the website (with the nice statement that this procedure had been agreed upon between the treasurer and Leon Strous). I have requested Dipak to remove this procedure from his report and wait for the result of the steps I mentioned above. I have not had his reaction on this last request (which was only sent this morning). kind regards, Leon Original Message: ----------------- From: gjo(a)daimlerchrysler.com Date: Tue, 10 Aug 2004 08:41:59 -0400 To: il2v(a)weyl.math.virginia.edu, jberleur(a)info.fundp.ac.be, strous(a)iae.nl, ito(a)ito.ecei.tohoku.ac.jp, jan.wibe(a)plu.ntnu.no, franz(a)uni-paderborn.de, jkarat(a)watson.ibm.com, meersman(a)vub.ac.be, jdr(a)inbekon.com, max.bramer(a)bcs.org.uk, basie(a)rkw.rau.ac.za, ifip-tc6(a)informatik.rwth-aachen.de Subject: Fw: tc fund procedure Dear Chairmen: This will be debated at the GA, if you have any advise for me please let me know !!
