These of you who have gone through the Bled Minutes [ http://www.ifip.or.at/minutes/c2002.htm ] might have observed that "IFIP as an organization in formal relations with UNESCO was subject to periodical evaluation of its contributions to UNESCO activities and that "such an evaluation is currently due and the IFIP-UNESCO Liaison Officer had prepared and submitted an analysis of the relations between the two organizations". The following note was received some minutes ago from UNESCO - Paris: "The Executive Board Committee on NGOs will consider, at its 164th session (May 2002) the establishment, modification or renewal of relations between UNESCO and a number of international non-governmental organizations, in accordance with the Directives concerning UNESCO's co-operation with non-governmental organizations. You will find attached a copy of the individual factsheet concerning your Organization and the Director-General's proposals to the Executive Board in this respect. These fact-sheets are also contained in Executive Board documents 164 EX/40 and 164 EX/ONG.2 which are accessible in all working languages on our website www.unesco.org <http://www.unesco.org>. Please be informed that the Executive Board Committee on NGOs will meet on 17 May 2002 from 10:00 am to 18:00 in Room XI (Fontenoy) at UNESCO Headquarters. Yours faithfully, Ahmed Sayyad Assistant Director-General for External Relations and Cooperation" ************************************ The individual UNESCO fact sheets of all evaluated organizations are part of document 164 EX/ONG.2 at http://unesdoc.unesco.org/ulis/cgi-bin/ulis.pl?database=extd&req=2&by=2&ord= 1&look=udc&tx_p=phrase+words&tx=164+EX%2FONG.2&ti_p=inc&ti=&dafr=&dato=&sess =&dc= UNESCO summarizes its evaluation of IFIP as follows: "During the period under consideration, IFIP has maintained excellent cooperation with the Communication and Information Sector and the Education Sector. With the latter, it was closely involved in activities linked to information technology, distance education and the application of the new information technologies, contributing to the production of several reference works including the UNESCO/IFIP Curriculum for Secondary Schools, translated into several languages. IFIP took part in meetings of the Communication and Information Sector on the new information technologies and is involved in the preparations for the World Information Summit (2003). With regard to its obligations as a partner admitted to formal relations, the Federation contributed to the sexennial report and replied to the Director-General's consultations on the C/4 and C/5 documents. Its collective cooperation was vigorous and highly appreciated. It took an active part in strengthening the mechanisms established by the 1995 Directives, in particular in its capacity as member of the NGO-UNESCO Liaison Committee, whose website it helped to create. Its interest in the impact of the new information technologies and the strengthening of cooperation with developing countries make it an essential partner in the implementation of the Organization's programmes in this field. Recommendation of the Director-General: Renewal of formal consultative relations." ************************************ Good wishes, 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/

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, 2 de Maio de 2002 13:08 To: all Subject: [IFIP] Memorable events in 2003 Dear All, 1. John V. Atanasoff's 100th Anniversary The Bulgarian GA representative to IFIP wrote to the Executive Director to say that on 4 October 2003 Bulgaria will commemorate the 100th anniversary of the birth of John Atanasoff, the inventor of the electronic digital computer. For his historic achievement Atanasoff is distinguished with the most prestigious Bulgarian and US awards for Technology. A string of activities is planned in Sofia and the Initiative Committee, chaired by Acad. Blagovest Sendov, Deputy Chair of the Bulgarian Parliament and IFIP Past President, will provide guidance for the planning of these events to be held under the patronage of the President of Bulgaria. Atanasoff was an American citizen of Bulgarian origin. A memorial will be inaugurated, a street in Sofia will be named after him and the village to which his roots are traced will be named after him. A three-day conference is planned with addresses from representatives of Bulgarian and foreign organizations and sessions dedicated to the history and development of computers. Prof. Boyanov writes that "IFIP's assistance and participation in the celebration, as a leading international organization in the field of the information technologies, is of great importance" to the Initiative Committee. John Atanasoff was an invited speaker at the IFIP co-sponsored International Conference "Children in the Information Age" 1995, Varna, Bulgaria. You can check a biography at http://ei.cs.vt.edu/~history/Atanasoff.html and also http://ei.cs.vt.edu/~history/ for a collection of materials related to the history of computing as collected and written by J.A.N. Lee, formerly WG 9.7 "History of Computing" Chair and currently IEEE CS rep. to IFIP. 2. John von Neumann's 100th Anniversary 2003 marks another great Anniversary - 100 years from the birth of another John -- John von Neumann -- a "brilliant mathematician, synthesizer, and promoter of the stored program concept, whose logical design of the IAS became the prototype of most of its successors - the von Neumann Architecture." For detailed information please refer to http://ei.cs.vt.edu/~history/VonNeumann.html The Hungarian full member society to IFIP proudly carries the name of John von Neumann and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) honors him through the presentation of an annual award in his name, the IEEE John von Neumann Medal, which is presented "for outstanding achievements in computer-related science and technology." The John von Neumann Computer Society will organize a series of initiatives to commemorate the 100th anniversary since the birth of its Patron from 15 to 17 October 2003 in Budapest. An International conference is planned and an IT STAR regular meeting is scheduled. In Hungary's annual report to GA 2001 [ http://www.ifip.or.at/minutes/ga2001/hungary.htm ], the Hungarian GA representative, Dr. B. Domolki, writes "An important issue to be raised towards IFIP is to secure the participation of IFIP in the international celebration of the John von Neumann centenary in 2003. 3. WITFOR The IFIP World Information Technology Forum (WITFOR) is planned for 27-29 August 2003 in Vilnius, Lithuania and will be organized by the Lithuanian Government and the Lithuanian Computer Society. Late week, a meeting of the IFIP Program Committee took place in Vilnius and PC members P. Bollerslev, D. Khakhar, R. Roode and L. Strous met with the Lithuanian Prime Minister, Algirdas Brazauskas who, as patron, will formally open the WITFOR conference and address IFIP's General Assembly on 30 August 2003.

CFP for Special Issue Computer Networks (Elsevier) on Wireless Sensor Networks

von Erdal CAYIRCI

Dear Colleague, Enclosed below and attached please find the Call for Papers for the Special Issue Computer Networks (Elsevier) on Wireless Sensor networks. We apologize if you received multiple copies of this Call for Papers. Please feel free to distribute it. Best regards, Erdal Cayirci GaTech Ramesh Govindan ICSI Taieb Znati NSF Mani Srivastava UCLA ==================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS Special Issue Computer Networks (Elsevier) on "Wireless Sensor Networks" Recent advances in digital electronics, embedded systems and wireless communications are leading the way to a new class of distributed wireless sensor networks. These networks have a wide range of potential applications, including security and surveillance, control, actuation and maintenance of complex systems, and fine-grain monitoring of indoor and outdoor environments. Sensor networks differ from conventional network systems in many aspects. They usually involve a large number of spatially distributed, energy-constrained, self-configuring and self-aware nodes. Furthermore, they tend to be autonomous and require a high degree of cooperation and adaptation to perform the desired coordinated tasks and networking functionalities. As such, they bring about new challenges and design considerations, which go much beyond conventional network systems. This special issue of Computer Networks is intended to foster the dissemination of high quality research in communication protocols, data management and access techniques, and applications of wireless sensor networks. We hope that the resulting issue will significantly advance our understanding of this nascent area of research. Only technical papers describing previously unpublished, original, state-of-art research, and not currently under review by another conference or journal, will be considered. We solicit papers covering a variety of topics related to wireless sensor networks including, but not limited to: - Novel applications of sensor networks for surveillance, fine-grain instrumentation, and actuation - New sensor network communication architectures - Software platforms and tools for sensor network application development - Energy-efficient media access, error control, and traffic management - Energy-efficient systems services such as localization and time synchronization - Scalable, and energy-efficient, data-dissemination schemes - Robust distributed algorithms for collaborative processing - Mechanisms for authenticated, secure communication - Modeling and performance evaluation of large-scale sensor network algorithms - Application specific network and systems services, including data-centric routing, attribute-based addressing, and location management Authors should follow the Computer Networks (Elsevier) manuscript format described at http://www.elsevier.nl/locate/compnw.

-----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, 25 de Abril de 2002 11:59 To: all Subject: [IFIP] The Day of President Tanaka Dear All, Project: The Day of the President Dr. Richard Tanaka (USA) is another brightly shining star in IFIP's presidential galaxy. He continues to this day to "turn around" companies which IT giants, such as Microsoft, are eager to acquire. You can NOW expose yourselves to Dr. Tanaka's recollections about his term as IFIP President (1974-1977) if you click >>> http://www.ifip.or.at/secretariat/presidentday.htm and then under Richard's photograph. The photo is conscientiously chosen to appear "old enough to represent how I looked during my IFIP Presidency, and new enough to be somewhat realistic." In this exclusive interview, among many interesting episodes, Dick recalls of TC 6 meetings in South Africa and Brazil where first-time-ever demonstrations were made based on the Arpanet (then primarily used by universities and the U.S. defense establishment) of possibilities to establish an open, global network. These demonstrations incorporated technological concepts, which were the precursor of the Internet. Enjoy, The Delivery Co. ************************** P.S. ...Talking about stars, have you heard this story? Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson went on a camping trip. As they lay down for the night, Holmes asked: "Watson, look up into the sky and tell me what you see." Watson said, "I see millions and millions of stars." Holmes: "And what does that tell you? " Watson: "Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Theologically, it tells me that God is great and that we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, it tells me that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What does it tell you?" Holmes: "Elementary, my dear Watson.
