Third IEEE Workshop on the Architecture and Implementation
of
High Performance Communication Subsystems
(HPCS'95)
Mystic, Connecticut, August 23-25, 1995
In this workshop (HPCS'95), the focus will be on the architectural,
algorithmic and practical issues related to the construction of a large
scale "Information Superhighway". These include its infrastructure,
applications and terminal home and office devices.
The term "Information Superhighway" is being generically used to
refer to future networks where users will be able to access and
exchange a variety of multimedia information and run bandwidth-avid
applications. Using current technology to build such systems may
seem feasible but a more careful and detailed view often reveals the
inadequacy of some current techniques and the nonexistence of several
components needed to build the complete system.
Presentations describing original techniques, experimental findings,
design issues and comparative studies related to the general theme
of HPCS'95 are sought. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- end-to-end architecture
- applications and their requirements
- application and service access protocols
- security, privacy and information protection
- user and information mobility
- quality-of-service requirements and guarantees
- software and hardware design and implementations
- system integration and deployment
- workstations for homes, offices, schools, etc
- accessing and sharing network resources
- interconnectivity and interoperability
- transmission technology over various media
- wireless communications
- gigabit networking technology
- standards
