Invitation to the Second Symposium on Problems in
the Optimization of Data Communication Systems
One session of the Symposium on problems in the optimization of data
communication networks is to be devoted to software for networks. I
believe that the work on protocols (1st, 2nd, and 3rd level) and file
transmission procedures are highly relevant. NWG participants should
welcome the opportunity to inject their ideas into the published
literature. Many NWG/RFC's already are in good enough shape for
publication so don't hesitate to submit your drafts. Time is short,
so prompt action is essential.
ACM IEEE
CALL FOR PAPERS
SECOND SYMPOSIUM ON PROBLEMS IN THE OPTIMIZATION
OF DATA COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS
SIGCOMM of ACM and the Technical Committee on Commuter Communications
of the IEEE Commuter Society are sponsoring the Second Symposium on
Problems in the Optimization of Data Communication Systems to be held
at Stanford University on October 20-22, 1971. The symposium will
include the presentation of papers, panel discussions, and workshop
sessions. The purpose is to bring together people engaged in
computer communication system design, analysis, and research. The
setting will be one where each participant can engage in a dialogue
on problems of interest to him with his colleagues in the computer/
communications professional community.
Papers are being sought in the following areas:
Advances in Data Communication Networks
Computer Communication Technology
New Applications and Applications Models
Software Organization for Communications
Systems Modeling, Evaluation, Optimization
Interface Problems and Standards
