von Cormac J. Sreenan

Our apologies if you have received multiple copies. --------------- Workshop on Distributed Smart Cameras (DSC 2006) Program Held in conjunction with ACM SenSys 2006 October 31, 2006 Boulder, CO, USA http://www.iti.tugraz.at/dsc06/program.html Distributed smart cameras combine two concepts: physically distributed cameras and distributed computing. Distributed smart cameras are examples of high-performance multimedia sensor networks. This area brings together researchers in image processing, sensor networks, and embedded system architecture. Several groups are now working on distributed smart cameras, but generally pursuing them in different research communities. This meeting is the first event to bring together all the research groups working on this problem Online Registration: http://www.regonline.com/Checkin.asp?EventId=97157 Workshop Co-Chairs B.

Election of the TC6 Chair for 2007-2009

von André Danthine

Dear TC6 Member, The first term of three years of Otto Spaniol as TC6 Chair will end with 2006. In Paris, it was decided to start the procedure for the election of the TC6 chairperson for the period 2007-2009 and I was designated to organize it. I will follow the procedure initiated in White Plains for the 1997 election, improved for the 2000 election while correcting the problems of the 2003 election. The starting point of the procedure is to establish the list of eligible people taking into account the three conditions : - national representative (Bylaws Condition) - attendance to at least one TC6 meeting among Wroclaw, Coimbra and Paris - conference organiser. Here is this list of eligible people by alphabetical order of the represented countries. Haring Gueuter Leduc Guy Sousa Jose Neuman de Boyanov Kiril Mason Lorne Slavik Jan Iversen Villy Martikainen Olli Pujolle Guy Spaniol Otto Dibuz Sarolta Raghavan S.V. Saito Tadao Niemegeers I. Aagesen Fin Grzech Adam Koen Koos Puigjaner Ramon Khakhar Dipak Rudin Harry Wuwongse Vilas Radford Peter Chapin Lyman Iyengar Arun. Presenting its candidacy for the TC6 chair implies a commitment - to attend all the meetings of TC6 and - to participate regularly in the Council and General Assembly meetings. Each candidate is invited to prepare - a short CV with an emphasis to the TC6 related activities - a statement of interest for the TC6 Chairmanship position. What activities he (or she) intends to continue, to expand, to discontinue, to create. What will change, if any, in TC6 under his (or her) leadership. - any view about the relationship between the TC6 and the Council and the General Assembly. I suggest to the candidates to prepare a single pdf with the CV and the statement of interest for the TC6 Chair. This document must be sent directly to me before October 31. I will send, to all TC6 members, the information received before the deadline with the final document which will allow TC6 members to cast their vote for one of the candidates. The people eligible to vote are the national representatives and the WG Chairmen (one vote by WG). The vote will be carried by email. Taking into account the hectic situation of the spam polluted mail environment and the protection introduced by some ISPs, it has been decided that your vote will have to be sent to two persons: The ballots will have to be sent to - Brigitte.Brauneis(a)ifip.org (at the IFIP Secretariat) - Peter.Radford(a)logicacmg.com (as TC6 Secretariat) before November 26, at 17H00 GMT. Both of them will receive from Otto the list of the people entitled to vote i.e. the representatives of the official members of IFIP and the WG chairperson(s). An official representative being also chair or co-chair of a WG will express his vote as official representative, leaving to the remaining co-chair(s) if any to cast their vote for the WG. (Maximum one vote per WG) The two person on charge of receiving the ballots will check them, count them, exchange their results, resolve discrepancy if any and announce the results of the vote in the first days of December. I am waiting for the candidacies. Andre Danthine TC6 honorary member
