-----Original Message----- From: owner-ifip_ga(a)ifip.or.at [mailto:owner-ifip_ga@ifip.or.at]On Behalf Of Plamen Nedkov Sent: sexta-feira, 3 de Janeiro de 2003 10:46 To: All Subject: [IFIP] Deadline extended + more Happy New Year! Many of you were away for the holidays and some of you actually continue to be away from your machines. With this in mind, and so as to give a chance to everyone to participate in IFIP's New Year's Lottery [ http://www.ifip.or.at/ifip_lottery.htm ], we extend the deadline for the submission of your replies to 17 January. Please visit http://www.ifip.or.at/ifip_lottery.htm and send your mail to <bb(a)ifip.or.at> Who knows, you might be the lucky winner of the free registration for IFIP's Congress 2004 in Toulouse. Since we have kicked off the 2003 circulars, here is a bit of fresh news from the New Year's mail: ***New TC Chairs from 1 January 2003*** We are pleased to welcome Prof. Takayasu Ito, Dept of Computer and Mathematical Sciences, Graduate School of Information Sciences,Tohoku University, Sendai, JAPAN as the new TC 1 Chair. Takayasu was the program committee chair of the first very successful IFIP conference on Theoretical Computer Science, August 2000 in Sendai. We are also pleased to welcome Prof. Jan Wibe, NTNU, Trondheim, Norway as the new TC 3 Chair. Jan is an IFIP Insider and most of you will remember him as Chair of the International Program Committee of Congress 2002 in Montreal. We wish Takayasu and Jan success. We take this opportunity to heartily thank the outgoing TC 1 and TC 3 Chairs, Giorgio Ausiello and Brian Samways, for all their efforts on behalf of IFIP. We hope Giorgio and Brian will continue maintaining close contact and wish them good fortune in all future activities. ***People*** We have tried at various occasions to write about veterans who have helped establish IFIP activities. From our New Year's mail we selected one note from a person with outstanding contributions to IFIP of whom, we are sure, few of you have heard of for quite a while and would enjoy to read this. His name is Algirdas Avizienis and here is what he said: "Dear Plamen - thank you for the informative and entertaining messages and best wishes for the coming year 2003. After 40 enjoyable years at Caltech's Jet Propulsion Lab and UCLA Computer Science Department in Los Angeles, I have returned to my native Lithuania - the Informatics Faculty at Vytautas Magnus University in Kaunas (my birthplace), Lithuania. I most certainly will continue my participation in IFIP activities - please keep the emails coming..." Algirdas Avizienis (Ph.D. 1960 Illinois; D.H.C. 1985 Toulouse ) is Founding Chairman (1980-1986) of WG 10.4 and recipient of the Silver Core. Algirdas presented papers at the IFIP WCCs in Munich (62), New York (65) and Edinburgh (68), was a session chairman at Ljubljana (71) and panel organizer and chairman at Stockholm (74). He had an invited paper for the Congress in Toronto (77) In 1979 he organized and chaired a Working Conference at EUROIFIP in London. In 1989 he had an invited paper at the Congress in San Francisco. *** Visibility of IFIP Publications *** At the end of 2002, Michael Ley, the Manager of the Computer Science Bibliography DB, wrote: "Dear Plamen, some numbers about IFIP publications in DBLP ... entry point: http://www.informatik.uni-trier.de/~ley/db/series/ifip/index.html DBLP indexes now (on the paper level) 152 IFIP Conference Proceedings (Kluwer, Chapman & Hall) + 99 IFIP Transactions (North Holland / Elsevier) + several volumes published by other publishers. During 2002 DBLP has grown from 250000 bibliographic records (Dec. 2001) to > 333333 bibliographic records ... Best Regards & Best Season's Greetings, Michael" We wrote in June 2002 that Michael and the Delivery Co have reached a strategic agreement for all future IFIP titles to be referenced at DBLP shortly after publication. All the best for 2003, The Delivery Co. -------------------------------- Plamen Nedkov Executive Director, IFIP Hofstrasse 3, A-2361 Laxenburg, Austria Tel: +43 2236 73616 Fax: +43 2236 736169 http://www.ifip.org/

Season's Greetings

von andré danthine

Dear all IFIP friends, January 1, 2003 is the first day of a new year for which I wish you health, happiness, professional success and peace in the world. January 1, 2003 is also the official date of the 20th anniversary of the Internet. It is indeed on January 1, 1983 that ARPANET officially switched from the NCP protocol to TCP/IP. On this anniversary let us wish for the Internet the same enthusiasm, dynamism and success to reach in 20 years a new stage of stabilization.

CMSB03 - Call for participation

von Corrado Priami

Apologies for multiple copies =========================== Please note that the deadline for having special fare in hotels is the end of the year. After that date it could be difficult to find rooms in hotel due to high sky season in Rovereto. ============================ Computational Methods in Systems Biology (CMSB 2003) University of Trento 24-26 February, 2003 Rovereto, Italy http://www.unitn.it/convegni/cmsb.htm Molecular biology has until now mainly focussed on individual molecules, on their properties as isolated entities or as complexes in very simple model systems. However, biological molecules in living systems participate in very complex networks, including regulatory networks for gene expression, intracellular metabolic networks and both intra- and intercellular communication networks. Such networks are involved in the maintenance (homeostasis) as well as the differentiation of cellular systems of which we have a very incomplete understanding. Nevertheless, the progress of molecular biology has made possible the detailed description of the components that constitute living systems, notably genes and proteins. Large scale genome sequencing means that we can (at least in principle) delimneate all macromolecular components of a given cellular system, and microarray experiments as well as large scale proteomics will soon give us large amounts of experimental data on gene regulation, molecular interactions and cellular networks. The challenge of the 21st century will be to understand how these individual components integrate to complex systems and the function and evolution of these systems, thus scaling up from molecular biology to systems biology. By combining experimental data with advanced formal theories from computer science, "the formal language for biological systems" to specify dynamic models of interacting molecular entities would be essential for 1. understanding normal behaviour of cellular processes, and how changes may affect the processes and cause disease. It may be possible to correlate genetic properties and symptoms in new and more efficient ways, based on an actual understanding of how various processes interact. 2. Providing predictability and flexibility to academic, pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical researchers studying gene or protein functions. In particular, it may save time by reducing the number of experiments needed, if inadequate hypotheses could be excluded by computer simulation. PARTICIPATION To participate please fill in the form at the URL http://www.unitn.it/convegni/cmsb_form.htm The inscription fee is 200EURO until the end of this year and 250EURO for later registrations. The fee cover a copy of the proceedinngs, coffee break and lunches, the social dinnner and the special event. Hotel reservation can be done at special fare by the end of the year according to the information that you find at the URL http://www.unitn.it/convegni/cmsb_hotels.htm The programme is available at the web page of the workshop.

FW: [IFIP] Anatomy of a website

von Augusto Casaca

-----Original Message----- From: owner-ifip_ga(a)ifip.or.at [mailto:owner-ifip_ga@ifip.or.at]On Behalf Of Plamen Nedkov Sent: quinta-feira, 19 de Dezembro de 2002 09:18 To: All Subject: [IFIP] Anatomy of a website Dear Friends, Tomorrow, we will send our last circular mail for 2002 -- The Last Story for 2002. Before that, we thought you might enjoy a short story about the IFIP website and a warm-up with a "tropical joke". When we presented our new web-site design in 2001 everyone was invited to "Plug in, capitalize on ideas and be inspired!" Since then hundreds of thousands of individuals plugged in. This November alone we had over 26,000 [twenty six thousand] individual sessions at http://www.ifip.org. Where do the visitors come from? The sessions originate in 105 countries!!! The share of the first 10 countries [measured by hits] is roughly as follows: 1. US -- 25 % [US commercial - 19.1, US educational - 5.6, and the rest is US government and military] 2. Austria -- 3.5% 3. UK -- 3.1% 4. Germany -- 2.6% 5. Australia -- 1.9% 6. France -- 1.6% 7. Italy -- 1.6% 6. Egypt -- 1.4% 9. Japan -- 1.4% 10. Canada 1.3% What are people interested in? The busiest pages relate to IFIP events, publications, technical committees and member societies. The IFIP Newsroom is also quite popular [Just to give you an idea - "The Last Story for 2001" -- http://www.ifip.or.at/mail/msg00094.html -- [posted on 20 December 2001] generated 424 requests during November 02 alone and a further 570 requests this December, amazing given the fact that it was posted a year ago!!]. The pages of the IFIP Secretariat are regularly frequented both directly and as a gateway to such projects as the "Day of the President", "Visions from the IT Room" and other. Who benefits? ->IT professional and practitioners worldwide [access to valuable information and possibility for establishing partnerships in their field of interest] ->The IFIP Community [more awareness of activities and projects] ->Member societies [updated information services, new ideas, higher visibility due to traffic toward their sites] ->TCs [greater exposure, new ideas and opportunities for projects] ->Event organizers [ central information repository and assistance, publicity, events and publications marketing] ->Editors and authors [recognition & higher visibility] Next time someone asks "What's in IFIP for us?" you might wish to show the pointer to http://www.ifip.org The Delivery Co. -- "Créateurs de Rêves & websites" Fun zone "end-of-year-selection" joke lovers only! Are you getting tired of the cold? Here is a story about tropical life to cheer you up ;-) ******************** Tropical Island Life ******************** On a group of beautiful deserted islands in the middle of nowhere, the following people are suddenly stranded by, as you might expect, a shipwreck: 2 Italian men and 1 Italian woman 2 French men and 1 French woman 2 German men and 1 German woman 2 Japanese men and 1 Japanese woman 2 Chinese men and 1 Chinese woman 2 American men and 1 American woman 2 Irish men and 1 Irish woman 2 English men and 1 English woman One month later on these same absolutely stunning deserted islands in the middle of nowhere, the following things have occurred: One Italian man killed the other Italian man for the Italian woman. The two French men and the French woman are living happily together in a manage-a-trois. The two German men have a strict weekly schedule of alternating visits with the German woman. The two Japanese men have faxed Tokyo and are awaiting instructions. The two Chinese men have set up a pharmacy, a liquor store, a restaurant and a laundry, and have got the woman pregnant in order to supply employees for their stores. The two American men are contemplating the virtues of suicide because the American woman keeps endlessly complaining about her body; the true nature of feminism; how she can do everything they can do; the necessity of fulfillment; the equal division of household chores. The two Irish men have divided the island into North and South and set up a distillery. They do not remember if sex is in the picture because it gets sort of foggy after the first few liters of coconut whisky. But they're satisfied because at least the English aren't having any fun. The two English men are waiting for someone to introduce them to the English woman.
