Call for Participation
Call for student travel award applications
ACM SIGCOMM 2003 -- A Data Communication Festival
25 - 29 August 2003
Karlsruhe, Germany
www.acm.org/sigcomm/sigcomm2003
We invite participation in SIGCOMM 2003, which broadens the
traditional scope of the conference in a number of ways. The
conference technical program contains significantly more papers, with
the goal of diversifying the topic set and balancing theory and
practice. Additionally, a wide range of viewpoints is represented in
the position paper session, and a poster session will showcase
work-in-progress with particular emphasis on student research. A set
of workshops and tutorials are interleaved with the technical
conference to encourage participation by all attendees. Five
workshops are held for the first time, covering networking research
(MoMeTools & NREDS), future architectures (FDNA), network-I/O
convergence (NICELI), and a QoS retrospective (RIPQoS). The highly
successful education workshop (NetEd) returns for a second
year. Tutorials given by renowned experts cover network security and
self-similar traffic.

Dear Augusto
Can I thank you and all in TC 6 who have contributed for their thoughts.
It is a very complicated picture to try to unravel. I am glad that Leon and Basie are also participating. No doubt we will be undating you all in due course as the picture clarifies.
Good wishes

Dear Roger,
In our last meeting in Budapest we had been working on the refinement of the
IFIP conditions for the new bid. We sent our contributions to Leon Strous,
who included them in the final document, which has already reached you last
week.
Your mail from May 21st with the news that IFIP and Springer are in the same
company now, reached us after the TC6 meeting. This is definitely new
information which needs to be considered. I circulated the mail within TC6.
I have got a few comments and suggestions from TC6 members on your mail. I
decided that instead of trying to reach by e-mail a consensual message to
send to you, as the time urges, I will forward in separate mails the most
relevant messages that I have received from TC6 members. I really hope that
they can help us in reaching the best decision. Please notice that all of
them insist that electronic publication is also mandatory.

Dear TC6 members,
I forward you the mail from Leon Strous (TC11 chairman) on the publications
issue.
Please do not get confused with the different mails circulating on
publications.
This mail is the result of the work that the TC chairs had agreed to do
after the Council meeting in Bilbao. This is the final document, whose draft
version we have analysed in Budapest.
The mail from Roger Johnson, which I circulated to you a few days ago is
orthogonal to this one. Up to the moment I have only had feed back to that
mail from TC6 members. The attached message from Leon does not make any
reference to that mail and proceeds as had been agreed in Bilbao.
I will investigate the situation and keep you informed.
Best regards
Augusto

Subject: Re: IFIP Publications issue
Dear Roger, Prins, Basie and Klaus,
we have received comments from most of the TC-chairs and some EB members.
Please find attached the adjusted
requirements document (version 30-5) where I have tried to accomodate all
comments. This list could be the
input for the Request for Proposals. According to our time plan, the next
step is that the IFIP President
appoints the negotiating sub-committee who will start the tender process.
I was asked to bring forward the wish not to limit the tender process to
only a few well-known publishers but
to start an open tender process. My suggestion in this respect is to compose
a long-list of possible
candidates who will be approached with the question whether they would be
interested in bidding. The
requirements document could be used to inform those candidates about what we
are looking for. The list of
interested parties will probably a short-list.
Concerning the IFIP Publications Policy document, I have received only one
comment. It was suggested to
replace "IT" by "Information Science and Technology". I have no problem with
that but have not changed the
document yet. Please advise how to proceed in order to finalize / formalize
this document.
kind regards,
Leon
