COHPUTER NETI'lORKS Lake Arrowhead, California September 8 - September 10, 1971 eo-Chairmen: David J. Farber -- University of California, Irvine Stephen D. Crocker ARPA/IPT

The number of networks has grown to the point where 'not all par ticipants are familiar with each other; more networks are under development. This wc x k s h o p is intended ' especially for those manu factureers, users and researchers who have just entered, or are about to enter, the network field. Presentations are invited on all aspects of computer networks, particularly including user communities, inter-node protocols, terminal and Bwitching equipments, and communications technology. Presentations on embryonic systems are especially invited.

GENERAL
INFOR}~TION

ON IEEE WORKSHOPS

What is a

Horksh~?

The objectives of these workshops are: To clarify, by exhaustive and off-the-record discussion between active workers in the field, the merits and disadvantages of con troversial alternative approaches to a specific phase of computer organization, and to establish the basis for a group of high-quality papers for IEEE meetings and publications. The workshop involves four (4) key concepts:

1. Small number of participants to permit exhaustive discussion: 2. Off-the-record proce edings to allow and preliminary results:
dis~ussion

of incomplete

3. Selected mature particioants to obviate the need for tutorial and introductory material:

4. A carefully defined topic to keep the discussion in focus ·

pff-The-Record Meetings To permit discussion of incomplete and . at the Yorkshop cannot be published. photographed so the workshop does not of the Patent Law. After the meeting, publish significant contributions. Selected Particioants tentative results, information Slides or blackboards may not be constitute disclosure in the sense participants are encour aged to

By limiting the workshop to a small number of active workers, mature

scientists knowledgeable in the specific area unde r discussion, formal
papers can be displaced by brief opening statements followed by an open
discussion.
Publication of Results
· One measure of the success of a workshop is the resulting publication
of research. While the workshop itself is closed, it should serve as
a stimulus to generate a series of high-quality papers for subsequent
open meetings:

Organization

The workshop is divided into four (4) scheduled sessions. each cer .c e r ed on one phase of the problem to be discussed. Normally. the ~orkshop chairman will assign to each session chairman the task of clarifying the subsidiary questions to be discussed in his session. Each session is divided into "talks." The speakers are designated "a s discussion leaders . Host participants at the workshop will "b e discussion leaders at one of the sessions. The session chairman will attempt to provide each speaker with the time he requests (within limits). Normally, five to ten minutes will be allowed for formal presentation. ,~ith 15 to 30 minutes reserved for discussion and debate. In addition. the chairman may include a general discussion period at the end of the session.
