Preview High Performance Networking: IFIP sixth international conference on high performance networking, 1995

High Performance Networking VI IFIP-The International Federation for Information Processing IFIP was founded in 1960 under the auspices of UNESCO, following the First World Computer Congress held in Paris the previous year. An umbrella organization for societies working in information processing, IFIP's aim is two-fold: to support information processing within its member countries and to encourage technology transfer to developing nations. As its mission statement clearly states, IFIP's mission is to be the leading, truly international, apolitical organization which encourages and assists in the development, exploitation and application of information technology for the benefit of all people. IFIP is a non-profitmak.ing organization, run almost solely by 2500 volunteers. It operates through a number of technical committees, which organize events and publications. IFIP's events range from an international congress to local seminars, but the most important are: • the IFIP World Computer Congress, held every second year; • open conferences; • working conferences. The flagship event is the IFIP World Computer Congress, at which both invited and contributed papers are presented. Contributed papers are rigorously refereed and the rejection rate is high. As with the Congress, participation in the open conferences is open to all and papers may be invited or submitted. Again, submitted papers are stringently refereed. The working conferences are structured differently. They are usually run by a working group and attendance is small and by invitation only. Their purpose is to create an atmosphere conducive to innovation and development. Refereeing is less rigorous and papers are subjected to extensive group discussion. Publications arising from IFIP events vary. The papers presented at the IFIP World Computer Congress and at open conferences are published as conference proceedings, while the results of the working conferences are often published as collections of selected and edited papers. Any national society whose primary activity is in information may apply to become a full member of IFIP, although full membership is restricted to one society per country. Full members are entitled to vote at the annual General Assembly, National societies preferring a less committed involvement may apply for associate or corresponding membership. Associate members enjoy the same benefits as full members, but without voting rights. Corresponding members are not represented in IFIP bodies. Affiliated membership is open to non-national societies, and individual and honorary membership schemes are also offered.

We are living more and more in an information society. Perhaps the more obvious applications are those devoted to distributed cooperative multimedia systems. In both industry and academia, people are involved in such projects. HPN'95 is an international forum where both communities can find a place for dialogues and interchanges. The conference is targeted to the new mechanisms, protocols, services and architectures derived from the need of emerging applications, as well as from the requirements of new communication environments. This workshop belongs to the series started in 1987 in Aachen (Germany), followed by Liege (Belgium) in 1988, Berlin (Germany) in 1991, Liege (Belgium) again in 1992 and Grenoble (France) in 1994. HPN'95 is the sixth event of the series sponsored by IFIP WG 6.4 and will be held at the Arxiduc Lluis Salvador building on the campus of the University of the Balearic Islands in Palma de Mallorca (Spain) from September 13 to 15. Eighty six papers from 21 countries have been submitted. The Program Committee, helped by more than one hundred reviewers, selected 27 papers, on the basis of a blind review process involving four reviews per paper. Unfortunately number of high quality papers had to be rejected due to lack of space in the conference schedule. Fouad Tobagi will deliver the keynote address entitled "High Perf01mance Network Design: Looking on to the Future". The invited talk will be presented by Julio Escobar on "Multimedia Synchronization over Wide Area Networks". Following the previous editions of this series, the topics of highest interest continue to evolve towards the higher layers with application goals, although some papers devoted to lower layers (transmission, interconnection, etc.) are still considered. My greatest and sincerest thanks are due to the Program Committee members and all the reviewers for accomplishing the always difficult and delicate task of selecting high quality papers. Furthermore I am also obliged to thank all the authors of accepted, as well as rejected papers, because it is they who give the assurance of continuity to the HPN series. Special considerations are due to Andre Dan thine and Otto Spaniol for the task of initiating the HPN series. Finally I also wish to thank the Organising Committee and all the collaborators for their efforts in establishing the conditions that have allowed the realisation of this edition of HPN. My gratitude, also, to all the governmental agencies and the financial sponsors without whose help this conference would not take place. If the attendees to the conference, or later readers, will find something in this volume that can help them in their work, I will be happy and rewarded.
