The workshop will consist of a number of short informal presentations and discussion on current research and implementation, hot topics, position statements, and controversial issues relating to high bandwidth networking. End-to-end issues including transport and higher layer protocols, host and network interface architecture, operating systems, emerging applications, deployment and management of large networks, economic and regulatory issues, security and privacy, and other societal impacts will be of particular interest. A one-page abstract of the presentation is due on 1 March 1995; all reasonable proposals will be considered (and possibly some controversial ones). The length of the presentations will be limited to 10 or 15 minutes each, with the number of presentation foils strictly limited.
Presentations will appear in the online proceedings of the workshop,
under URL
http://info.gte.com/ieee-tcgn/conference/gbn95 or by FTP
from
ftp://ftp.gte.com/pub/ieee-tcgn/conference/gbn95.
Selected abstracts
of the presentations will appear in IEEE Network Magazine
(tentatively May 1995), and presenters may be invited to submit papers
to a special issue of the Journal of High Speed Networks (JHSN).
There will blocks of time reserved for interactive discussion
sessions. Suggestions for topics will be taken in advance (email to
