      15th Annual IEEE Computer Communications Workshop(CCW 2000)

                              Oct. 15-18, 2000 

                  South Seas Resort, Captiva Island, Florida 

                       http://uluru.poly.edu/~tmoors/ccw

Continuing the tradition of CCW, we are planning a technically strong
program intermixed with a few social events. Last year, the workshop
was held in the wild and wonderful Rocky Mountains. We complement
this location with our choice of a serene sea resort for the Year
2000 workshop; returning to the same location that hosted the 5th
IEEE CCW a decade ago.

The workshop will feature technical talks on various areas in
computer communications/networking: characterizing traffic on the
Internet, understanding different aspects of QoS, active networks,
wireless and optical networking, internetworking, next generation
protocols and architectures, satellite communications, etc.

Lest we forget
 
         Session organizer: Tim Moors (moors@ieee.org) - Polytechnic University
 
The Internet has been spectacularly successful, but it hasn?t been the only protocol
suite into which researchers and developers have focused their creative energies.  The
long history of networking includes other systems such as OSI, ATM, SNA, DECnet, X.25,
SS7, Netware, etc.  The purpose of this panel will not be to dwell on these past
systems, but to reflect on the lessons that they have to offer to the future of
networking.  For example, many of these protocols had a commercial orientation which
matches the current Internet usage much better than the military orientation that has
been inherited in the design philosophy of the Internet protocols.  They also proposed
design alternatives, in areas such as addressing and resource management, that may find
renewed life in new networks.  Reciprocally, they also made mistakes that we should be
careful to avoid repeating. 
 
Panelists will include: Radia Perlman (Sun), Bharat Doshi (Lucent), Diane Pozefsky
(IBM), and others.
