The I3E'2005 Conference provides a forum for users, engineers, and
scientists in academia, industry, and government to present their latest
findings in e-commerce, e-business, or e-government applications and the
underlying technology to support those applications. The submitted
contributions address challenging issues of innovative business models,
digital goods, products and services, user behavior, pervasive
technologies, portals, service integration, trust and security, and public
e-services for citizens and enterprises.

--------------------------------------------------------
Dear colleague,
We are developping the GeoLIM project
(http://planetlab-01.ipv6.lip6.fr:10000/cbg.php)
<http://planetlab-01.ipv6.lip6.fr:10000/cbg.php)%A0> that aims at
providing the geographic location of an Internet host using
solely its
IP address. The key element of GeoLIM is its ability to
transform
delay measurements between landmarks (probe machines) and a
target
host, into geographic distance constraints. It uses
multilateration -
alike GPS - to estimate the geographic location of the
target host.
We're seeking your help, looking for various types of
network
access, as for instance, with the same IP adress, estimate
your
location when you access the internet through a low or
high-speed line
(telephone or DSL/LAN). We ask you to test the geolocation
solution
through the above web page. This will take you no more than
3 minutes!
Just Click on
http://planetlab-01.ipv6.lip6.fr:10000/cbg.php
We're also looking for more Landmark nodes (nodes used to
provide the
coordinates of the system, therefore, we need to be able to
ping a
host whose location is known). We'll be glad if you could
provide us
with such a host.
Do not hesitate to distribute this mail to colleagues
interested.
The test is carried out on Planetlab
(http://www.planet-lab.org/).
We thank you for your contribution. More details about our
algorithm
can be found at (http://rp.lip6.fr/~gueye/articles/imc.pdf)

Dear all,
I have contacted via email the GA representatives of all the 12 IFIP
countries which don't have a delegate (or whose delegate is pretty much
inactive since a long time).
Results til now:
- Ireland will launch a temder competition very soon (see below)
hopefully with a positive result.
- Republic of Korea has nominated Prof. Il Y. Chong
(see also below).
- Another GA member from a country with a very inactive
delegate has promised to think about nominating another
national representative.
And finally: Guy Leduc has been officially confirmed as
national delegate from Belgium (in succession of our honorary member
Andre Danthine).
Adam (Grzech): Would you, please, send an invitation to our new
delegate from Korea. I don't have more than his name and his
email address (see below) for the moment being.
Best regards
Otto

Dear Otto,
I will shortly be launching a tender competition for national delegates for
TCs, to coincide with the start of the 2005/06 academic year (i.e. when
people are around to pay attention).
Please note that my email address is

1st International Workshop on Software for Sensor Networks (SensorWare) - CFP
***********************************************************
Welcome to the 1st International Workshop on Software for Sensor Networks (SensorWare) to be held on the 8 January 2006. The workshop is held in conjunction with COMSWARE 2006 in the beautiful and historical city of New Delhi.
Advances in technology have made deployment of miniature sensors a realistic proposition. These sensors are low-power, inexpensive, smart devices with multiple on-board sensors, and are connected through wireless links, so as to form a collaborative sensor network to perform a specific task. As a result, it opens up a new paradigm of ubiquitous computing and enables a range of applications that are previously unrealizable or too costly to be realized. However, given the limitation of on-board hardware, one of the key areas towards achieving superior performance is through the software implementation. The workshop is intended for the presentation and discussion of novel algorithms and software implementation for sensor networks. This workshop, intends to bring together engineering experts and academicians to discuss the current status, technical challenges, standards, fundamental issues, and future services and applications in the form of panels and technical presentation.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:
Operating System
Efficient algorithms
Protocol design
Performance analysis
Performance related issues
Sensor applications
Deployment issues and scenarios
Middleware
Sensor security
Sensor network design and modeling
