Die GMW05 möchte neben Neuem bewusst auch die ursprünglichen Tagungsschwerpunkte in das Blickfeld rücken und diese zukunftsorientiert weiterentwickeln. Auf der GMW05 sollen die bestehenden didaktischen Ebenen (Lernmaterialien, Lehr-/Lernszenarien, Organisation und Bildungsnetzwerke) mit den Querschnittsthemen (Strategie, Qualitätssicherung, Didaktik, Curricula- und Kompetenzentwicklung) in Verbindung gesetzt werden. Ein neues Ufer, zu dem wir aufbrechen wollen, ist die internationale Dimension: Bietet E-Learning Potentiale für die Umsetzung der Bologna-Deklaration? Auch die technische Sicht wird 2005 mit an Bord sein. Erstmalig finden die GMW05 und die E-Learning-Fachtagung der Gesellschaft für Informatik DeLFI 2005 gemeinsam statt. Die beiden Gesellschaften werden das Themenspektrum kontrovers und konstruktiv diskutieren und neue Trends in der Entwicklung von digitalen Medien an Hochschulen aufzeigen. Scharnier zwischen den Tagungen sind gemeinsame Themenschwerpunkte auf den Ebenen Lernmaterialien, Lehr- und Lernszenarien und Organisation. Diese werden in Plenarveranstaltungen durch Keynotes aus der didaktischen, bildungspolitischen und der technischen Sicht eröffnet. Wir freuen uns über die Einsendung von Full Paper Beiträgen zu den Tagungsschwerpunkten: - Lehrmaterialien - Lehr- und Lernszenarien - Integration in die Organisation - Bildungsnetzwerke der Zukunft Darüber hinaus besteht die Möglichkeit Vorschläge für Panels oder Pre-Conference Workshops zu unterbreiten.

This technological evolution is further inspiring researchers to envision the next generation wireless networking architectures and even the space Internet. Next Generation Wireless Internet (NGWI) will be the convergence of these heterogeneous wireless networks and the next generation Internet to provide mobile users with a wide range of high resource demanding services such as high speed reliable data and real-time multimedia delivery. While the unique characteristics of each of these wireless networks pose diverse set of challenges, their integration severely expands the set of open research problems for seamless, efficient, and reliable communication. Therefore, there exists an urgent need for a significant research effort to focus on solving these new challenges posed by the integration and the convergence of these wireless heterogeneous networks. The objective of ConWiN 2005 is to provide a research platform where researchers bring their contributions to light by presenting their technical papers on the issues regarding the integration and the convergence of heterogeneous wireless networks.

[Fwd: Changes in Computer Communications Review (CCR)]
by Lars Wolf 24 Jan '05

24 Jan '05

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Changes in Computer Communications Review (CCR) Date: Mon, 24 Jan 2005 09:03:49 -0500 From: Erich Nahum <nahum(a)turing.acm.org> Reply-To: Erich Nahum <nahum(a)turing.acm.org> To: SIGCOMM-MEMBERS(a)LISTSERV.ACM.ORG CCR is evolving! To push forward the changes successfully begun by John Wroclawski, CCR is starting a new life with the April 2005 issue, with a new editor in chief (Christophe Diot from Intel Research) and a new editorial board (see names below). The goal is for CCR to strengthen its role as the network community newsletter in which we are each involved and contribute. CCR will publish papers in the general field of data communications characterized primarily by quality of the work and timeliness of publication. CCR will encourage publication of "works in progress", provided they are of good caliber. Experience papers, system papers, and papers reproducing others' results, should find a home in CCR, as long as the quality is high enough and useful to the community. To achieve the quality and timeliness goals, the reviewing turn-over will be three months, with an implicit submission deadline every quarter. The decisions will be either accept or reject. Each paper will be published with a public review that will synthesize the reviewers' opinion. In addition to papers, CCR will publish a news-like section which will include articles based on input from research community members - faculty members, junior researchers, students, industry researchers, etc. The scope for such articles will span topics such as interviews of research scientists and industry leaders, editorials, conference reports, summary standards, NSF or European Commission user manuals, arguments on a research topic, outrageous opinion column, favorite hits, What's Worth Reading, and so on. To conclude, we ask networking researchers (and SIGCOMM members in particular) to take to heart that CCR is your newsletter and its content is made by you! Please send your short columns, editorials, articles, etc. We will review them and strive our best to publish them. Christophe Diot, Editor in Chief Jennifer Rexford, SIGCOMM chair Vern Paxson, SIGCOMM vice-chair The new editorial board is Chadi Barakat, INRIA Ernst Biersack, Eurecom Mark Crovella, Boston University Jon Crowcroft, U. of Cambridge Constantinos Dovrolis, GaTech Serge Fdida, U. of Paris 6 Steve Gribble, U. of Washignton Roch Guerin, U. of Pennsilvania Dina Katabi, MIT Srinisivan Keshav, U. of Waterloo Venkat Padmanabhan, MSR Matt Roughan, U. of Adelaide

Innovations in content delivery systems continue to have strong impact in the Internet, resulting in a surge of interest in both content delivery applications and the web/network infrastructure that supports novel content delivery applications. Starting from basic caching, research in content distribution has broadened its scope to cover practically all areas related to the intersection of content and networking, including such areas as peer-to-peer, data grid computing, utility and edge computing, application networking, wireless content delivery, pervasive networking and content computing. Building on the success of the previous WCW meetings, WCW10 plans to form a strong technical program that covers the newest and most interesting areas relating to content delivery services as they move through the Internet. Call for Papers: The workshop solicits technical papers related to Internet content delivery, caching and replication, and content services networking. Particular areas of interest include, but are not limited to: -Content delivery architectures -P2P file sharing, storage, and content delivery -Caching and content distribution for mobile wireless systems -Web caching and replication (protocols and architectures) -Edge services and dynamic content caching -Multimedia content distribution -Overlay networks for content delivery -Content placement and request routing -Empirical studies of deployed content delivery systems -Security in content distribution systems -Wide-area upload and content gathering -Novel applications and paradigms for caching and content distribution General Chair: Ernst W. Biersack, Institut Eurecom Program Chairs: Ernst W. Biersack, Institut Eurecom Pablo Rodriguez, Microsoft Research Local Organization Chair: Guillaume Urvoy-Keller, Institut Eurecom Cyber Chair: Pietro Michiardi, Institut Eurecom Program Committee: Mostafa Ammar, Georgia Institute of Technology Azer Bestavros, Boston University Bobby Bhattacharjee, University of Maryland Paul Francis, Cornell University Markus Hofmann, Bell-Labs Magnus Karlsson, HP Labs Anne-Marie Kermarrec, INRIA Laurent Mathy, University of Lancaster Guillaume Pierre, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam Thomas Plagemann, Oslo University Lili Qiu, Microsoft Research Reza Rejaie, University of Oregon Torsten Suel, Polytechnic University Mary Vernon, University of Wisconsin-Madison Geoff Voelker, University of California, San Diego Craig Wills, Worcester Polytechnic Institute Alec Wolman, Microsoft Research Hui Zhang, Carnegie Mellon University Guidelines: Technical papers and synopses are welcome. Technical papers describe previously unpublished research results or empirical evaluations of current systems. Synopses are summaries of interesting new problems or approaches, or of standards or development efforts in progress. Technical papers are limited to 5000 words; synopses are limited to 3000 words. We require authors to first submit a 150-word abstract to ease the process of reviewer assignment. The Program Committee will judge submitted papers on relevance, significance, originality, clarity, and technical merit. Do not submit product marketing material or material that is previously published or under review elsewhere. Accepted papers will be either published in the LNCS Series of Springer-Verlag or as IEEE Proceedings. At least one author of each accepted paper must attend the workshop to present their work. Please submit technical papers and synopses in PDF format through the submission form on the conference Website. Proposals for Panels: WCW panels bring together researchers from industry and academia. These panels are an important element of WCW. This year we plan on having a panel that discusses "Ten years of Content Distribution". Please send other panel proposals in plain text by e-mail to the Program Chairs (iwcw05(a)eurecom.fr). _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu http://lists.cs.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/tccc
