He like to organize a personal private control environment and with such reactionary person i will never cooperate. But i want, that all people know it. The basic for that is his relation to the members of the list. This people, the foundation for any activities, are only supernumeraries and appendages for him. And this we find also in all his argumentations. As a member for a list, this is not problematic. But in his controller position he will organize the monotony and limiting of thinking. Then, JNC lost the space for development. As i see, Norbert Bollow is also activ in the ISF coordination groups. But his principles and perspectives are total controversial to the texts like "call for ISF" of the ISF. I do not understand, why such reactionary person can act in this environment. The JNC as a single instance is not really important. But as a part of our global cooperation we need all active people. I hope, you think about. This way for distribution is my last way. I can no longer write to the list. many greetings, willi Salvador, Brasil -------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: Re: Moderator action Re: [JNC - Forum] for your considereation Datum: Mon, 3 Aug 2015 10:21:40 +0200 Von: Norbert Bollow Organisation: GoalTree Consulting N.

In my role as the current list admin for this list, I have the unpleasant duty to react by taking some "moderator action", which in this case consists mainly in putting you "on moderation". Also, if there any replies on the list, I will probably kill that thread soon.

If you wish to appeal this decision, you can write to the JNC Steering Comittee . Note: Your assertion "I can no longer write to the list" was not true at the time when you made that statement. You were at the time a "moderated" subscriber; postings which would have been appropriate to the list would have been accepted. However the assertion is true now.

An increasing number of organizations implement their business processes and applications via runtime composition of services made available in the Cloud by external suppliers. This scenario is changing the traditional view of security introducing new service security risks and threats, and requires re-thinking of current assurance, development, testing, and verification methodologies. In particular, security assurance in the cloud is becoming a pressing need to increase the confidence of the cloud actors that the cloud and its services are behaving as expected, and requires novel approaches addressing SOA and cloud peculiarities. IWSAC 2015 is the third edition of the International Workshop on Security Assurance in the Cloud. It aims to address the security assurance issues related to the deployment of services in the Cloud, along with evaluating their impact on traditional security solutions for software and network systems. The workshop seeks submissions from academia and industry presenting novel research on all theoretical and practical aspects of security and assurance of services implemented in the Cloud, as well as experimental studies in Cloud infrastructures, the implementation of services, and lessons learned. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Accountability in the cloud * Authentication and access control in the cloud * Challenges in moving critical systems to the cloud * Cloud audit, certification, and compliance * Cloud transparency, introspection, and outrospection * Data security and privacy in the Cloud * Evidence-based assurance of cloud services * Information assurance and trust management * Intrusion detection in the cloud * Policy compliance * Security assurance in the cloud * Security and assurance protocols in the cloud * Security and privacy in the cloud * Service level agreements * Service procurement in the cloud * Verification of cloud services IMPORTANT DATES Paper submission due: September 7, 2015 (11:59 PM American Samoa time) Notification to authors: October 7, 2015 Camera-ready due: October 15, 2015 Registration due: October 19, 2015 SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS Submissions must not substantially overlap papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or conference/workshop with proceedings.

A special issue of the international Journal of Community Informatics ( http://ci-journal.net) will be devoted to Data Literacy. Community Informatics (CI) is the study and the practice of enabling communities with Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs). This special issue will focus on the role of data literacy in using ICT to empower and enable communities. The issue is expected to be published in June 2016. The Journal of Community Informatics is a focal point for the communication of research of interest to a global network of academics, community informatics practitioners and national and multi-lateral policy makers. Call for papers The field of CI seeks to explore the potential of information and communication technologies and their applications for social and economic development efforts at the community level. It particularly seeks to ensure that marginalized individuals and communities can benefit from the opportunities that ICTs can provide. Increasingly data literacy has been identified as a requirement to make effective use of these opportunities. However, very little attention has been paid to defining what data literacy means or how it can be achieved. Data literacy refers to the skills, knowledge and context needed to make effective use of data on the web. It includes the ICT skills to find, access and manipulate data; the statistical and subject matter skills to interpret and use the data; and also the context needed to provide the opportunity and motivation to use the data. It can be seen as a characteristic of an individual or a community. Recently there have been calls for greater data literacy from communities as diverse as the open data movement (who see it as essential if open data is to fulfil its promise of greater transparency and engagement) and the citizen science movement (who see it as required for citizens to understand, engage in, and support science). This raises fundamental concerns in CI such as the power of those who are data literate relative to those who are not, and the right of experts to demand skills of the population as a whole. However, these debates need to be unDERpinned with a clearer and more detailed description of what data literacy is and why it is needed. Work on data literacy has remained the preserve of educationalists and librarians, but the increased use of data in many areas has created a pressing need for a more multi-disciplinary view. For this special issue of the Journal on Data Literacy, we are inviting submissions of original, unpublished articles. Potential topics include (but are not limited to): What do we mean by data literacy? Why do we need data literacy? How should data literacy be achieved? What are the broader political, social and philosophical implications of data literacy? What are the practical implications of data literacy? We welcome research articles, along with case studies and notes from the field. All research articles will be double blind peer-reviewed. Insights and analytical perspectives from practitioners and policy makers in the form of notes from the field or case studies are also encouraged - these will not be peer-reviewed. Closing date for submission of full papers: 30 September 2015 Submission Process & Guidelines Authors need to register with the Journal prior to submitting or, if already registered, can simply log in and begin the five-step process.

One issue that I see with the approach is the evident difficulties which both the political (democratic) and administrative processes are having in coming to terms with the truly profound change in their underlying contexts (and thus underlying organizing principles) which the ICT revolution has introduced… As a starter in a recent email to another list I mentioned the following changes Democratic norms and practices and particularly practices were set up and reflect the period during which they were developed and are very much showing their age... To name but a few changes which have yet to be fully accounted for in democratic practice 1. restricted and hierarchically structured access to information vs. unlimited horizontal/peer to peer access to information 2. restricted, costly and slow access to communications vs. unlimited and essentially free access to communications 3. restricted and costly access to one to many (and many to one_ communications vs. unlimited and essentially free access to one to many (and many to one) communications 4. restricted and costly access to institutional and other (communal) memory/information storage and retrieval vs. unlimited and essentially free and unlimited access to communal memory And I'm sure others can think of more to add to this list. What we understand as the conventional practices/modes of operation of democracy are I believe anchored in pre-modern conditions as per the above and there is an urgent need to rethink/redo those practices based on our changed information and communications resources and opportunities. The case quoted of Uber is just one clever response to current gaps in democratic practice which urgently need to be filled--Uber using their control over a "many to one" "one to many" communications process to game a broader terrain of democratic communications that hadn't really caught up. (Does de Blasio have any way of doing a parallel set of communications (either technically or organizationally) to counter the Uber blasts apart from blasting to the world and having the world blast back via Twitter?

Imagine that regulator hired the leading experts in the field for scientific advice, so that its rulings were grounded in technical reality. If you can, imagine an open process that was open and subject to scrutiny by the whole technical community. Could this ever happen, or are these hopes just the ravings of a deranged fantasist? I am pleased to reveal that the UK telecoms regulator, Ofcom, has just published such a landmark scientific report. It is written by my colleagues at Predictable Network Solutions Ltd. The download link is http://stakeholders.ofcom.org.uk/market-data-research/other/technology-research/2015-reports/traffic-management The title of the report is "A Study of Traffic Management Detection Methods & Tools". Whilst that sounds rather dry and academic, its contents are transformative for the "network neutrality" debate. Why so? The report identifies the many false technical assumptions being made about detecting "discrimination" or "throttling". Summary of key report findings ------------------------------ Here are some top findings and highlights from my interpretation and summary of the report: * Not a single one of the players offering traffic management (TM) detection tools is fit for regulatory use in the UK (where localisation of issues in the supply chain is especially important). They all have limited utility, relevance, accuracy and/or scalability. ("…we must conclude that there is no tool or combination of tools currently available that is suitable for Ofcom's use"). There is a long explanation of their (often embarrassingly common and severe) individual and collective failures to deliver on their promise. * You cannot conflate 'equality of [packet] treatment' with delivering equality of [user application] outcomes. Only the latter matters, as ordinary users don't care what happened to the packets in transit. Yet the relevant academic literature fixates on the local operation of the mechanisms (including TM), not their global aggregate effect. * You cannot legitimately assume that good or bad performance was due to the absence or presence of TM. ("The absence of differential traffic management does not, by itself, guarantee fairness, nor does fairness guarantee fitness-for-purpose.") The typical chain of reasoning about how TM relates to QoE is broken, confusing intentional and unintentional effects. * Networks cannot choose whether to have traffic management or not. ("…since quality impairment is always present and always distributed somehow or other, traffic management is always present.") This ends the idea of a "neutral" network being one free from TM. * There is a fundamental false assumption that any current observed performance outcome is intentional TM. ("…even if an outcome is definitely caused by e.g. some specific configuration, this does not prove a deliberate intention, as the result might be accidental.") This instantly blows apart most current discussions of "discrimination", which imply an intentional semantics to broadband that does not exist. It also eliminates the possibility of an oath of "do no harm", since there was not intentionality to the emergent outcome anyway.

Parallel to the Internet Governance Forum (IGF). In this time, we do not have a maillist for the IUF. I hope, our friends in Brasil and Istanbul create it. Then we have the open space for an open and free discussion about Ungovernance or Governance for the Internet. And the people in the IGF-environment can be very important and helpful in this discussion process to find the truth. many greetings, willi Salvador, Brasil -------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: Re: [WSF-Discuss] to my person Datum: Tue, 18 Aug 2015 12:30:41 -0300 Von: willi uebelherr An: iuf iuf partido pirata Kopie (CC): Iuri Guilherme , Julia Reda , Brigitta Jonsdottir , Amelia Andersdotter , Fabiane Bogdanovicz , Alexandre Oliva , ASL , Uzoma Madukanya , Quiliro Ordóñez Baca , Fernando de Sá Moreira , Piratas Norio Salvador , IUF Alternatif Bilisim , Diego Saravia , Galleguindio Ramirez , IUF Ali Rıza Keleş , IUF Etkinlik Kayıt , IUF Ahmet Sabancı , Wolf Gauer , Umit Sahin Dear KaNNoN, many thanks for your answer and explanation. My thema in general and for the IUF: Internet, the interconnection of local networks. A transportsystem for digital data in packet form. In the core stay the design principles, the principles of the architecture. This, because the centralized system, what we have, is a question of design principles: private star networks, connected in private IXP (Internet Exchange Points) and this connected with private backbones. Transfered as a private service from private ISP (Internet Service provider), traders for private transport capacity, to the people. We know from the beginning, that there was a principle condition: This system have to be private controlled. Independent of all questions about, what the people need and what the technology make possible. Therefore, this transportsystem was not designed like the streets between the communities. To visualize the difference, i will create a map of the different telecommunication transport systems in Brasil, i will use the existed maps from other people in our world and i will create a map as a proposal, what we need. We look for all forms of different electronic transport system, because we need only one. For "Internet", telephone, TV and radio and all forms of transport of digital data. The basic is my proposal to NetMundial. It is always the core with all principles. I have sent this text also to this list. In the NetMundial maillist 1net.org you can follow the discussion last year. We see, this people never want to discuss this proposal in an open way, because they need the Governance as a base for her material existence. For her jobs. The other question in a more private connection, particularly with Quiliro in Ecuador and his friends, was the anonymity. Never the Net Neutrality. And it is clear: For the routing we need the geographical information. And some people do not like, that other people know, in what community they live. But we should be clear. Only very few people need this anonymity. The whistleblower and the real journalists and all people, they act against repression and the clandestino groups. Against any form of private ownership of common ressources, for local self organisation and self determination. But the problem for me is not a technical question. Because on the ways, what are based on the technology, we can do it nearly all, what we need. We can go through anonymisation networks, we can encrypt all our data and we have have 2 parts of our IP address. The global and the local part. The global part is open, because the router need the geographical information. The local part is a local decision. Nobody need to know it outside of the local network. And if you create a link to a local network anywhere on our planet, you can do it. We have to seperate the transport demands in the global space and our specific using of our data. Like on the street. The people use dark windows and closed boxes. Much more important is, that today all the security system of the state and state cooperations know, where you are. Only the people do not know. This, because also for Cisco they need the geographical information. And if you look in the different open and closed protocols you see it. And this you see also in all OpenWrt routing protocols. All this algotithms comes from military projects. They want to work with dynamical hidden servers and nobody should know, where they are in this time. But this is a illusion. Maybe the most difficult part of my proposal is, that we have to organize our independence in the technology. That we are able, local and regional, to create the technical components self. This is a break of the capitalistic production and distribution system and logic relations. In this part, we have the biggest confrondation with the antagonism of interests and with the lack of self-confidence of the local people. And this part is for me the most important part. The thema "Ungovernance" implies the own activity. Without that, Ungovernance is impossible. And this is valid in all areas of our life. And it is not important, in what space we start. This, because the Internet for a free access to the free knowledge and free communication is always a part. Therefore, i concentrate my doing and thinking to this genaral instrument for our local independent economy. many greetings, willi Salvador, Brasil Am 18/08/2015 um 09:01 schrieb iuf iuf partido pirata: > Hello mates! > We are finishing the preparations for a crowdfunding.

The Asian Regional Consultation on the WSIS+10 Review will bring together experts from different backgrounds and from around the Asian region who are concerned about issues concerning ICTs, sustainable development, human rights and Internet governance, to ask: *what are the issues that our governments need to squarely address in the process of the review? * The meeting is timed so as to be able for the group to comment on the non-paper that will have been released by the co-facilitators of the review process in late August (inputs into that paper can be made by all stakeholders and are due on 31 July). The group will take stock of the extent to which priorities for the Asian region have been reflected in the non-paper, and will work together on formulating a joint comment on the non-paper (comments on the non-paper will be due in mid-September, and will be drawn on by the co-facilitators to formulate a zero-draft). The group will also look forward to consider which further inputs could be made or actions could be taken strategically to ensure that priorities from the Asian region are fully taken onto board in the final WSIS+10 Review outcome documents. If there are other processes the group believes this work could usefully feed into, these might be taken into consideration as well. *The meeting is conceived as a highly interactive working meeting that is geared towards producing a joint submission to the next input round on the Review outcome document. *Participants will be drawn from all non-government stakeholder groups, and will have a wide and rich variety of backgrounds, both in terms of professional expertise and geographical location. What unites all, however, is a shared commitment to a free and open Internet and to the use of technology to benefit the development and human rights of all in our region. *We're very happy to let you know that remote participation will be available. *For more information on remote participation and the event in general, please see the event website . Or follow us on Twitter @WSISAsia #wsis10. We look forward to your inputs into this event. Do please let me know if you have any comments or questions.

Mikael start to use it. In the history, the telecommunication instances "bring in" the "internet" in the social environment. The people was passiv, consumer. We have to go the other direction.

The ICG has no authority to rewrite proposals, and in passing on a proposal it does not express "support" for it or "opposition to it. It is not in a position to "call out" jurisdictional issues. The only things the ICG can "call out" or question are: 1) did the proposal we receive have consensus of the operational community that developed it? 2) are there inconsistencies between the proposals, or are they literally unworkable in a technical sense? The question neither you nor Parminder asks is how much support for your positions regarding jurisdiction was there in the names community? I did not see either one of you in that process advocating a position - correct me if I am wrong. Further, neither of you could convincingly demonstrate that a change of jurisdiction could have commanded a consensus among the global community. I mean, if you completely ignore the issue of WHERE the new jurisdiction would be, or the question of WHAT LAW would be applicable, as Parminder has repeatedly done, it becomes pretty easy, but also meaningless, to complain about jurisdiction. As a member of the ICG we evaluated the proposals and stitched them together according to our mandate. As a member of the names CWG you probably know (if you followed the process) that I made many of the same criticisms about PTI as Richard Hill, but in the end the current position was the only one that could command consensus. So your view, then, if I understand it, is that ICG should act as a central authority that dictates its preferences to the rest of the community?

We aren't in disagreement as to what the ICG's role was. We are however disagreeing as to whether it performed it correctly, and more specifically as to what an inconsistency is / what goes into compatibility/interoperability. 1. Is it worth noting there might be an inconsistency between one community putting forward a jurisdictional limitation ("for negotiation with the PTI") and others not doing so, with the protocols community stating "The current agreement does not specify a jurisdiction," and the names community stating, "? I think the obvious answer is yes, there is. Did the ICG call this out? No. 2. Is it worth noting that there might be an inconsistency between one community putting forward an all-in-one vision of a "Post-Transition IANA", while the other two communities only dealing with "IANA Numbering Services Operator" and the other being unclear but stating "there is no overlap between organizations because responsibility for each registry is carefully delineated" and talking of the "protocol registry operator role" (P3.III.5)? Yes. Did the ICG call this out? No. Now we might disagree on what constitutes an inconsistency/compatibility/interoperability, but it seems to me that "unworkable in a technical sense" is not the only definition for that, nor one that I would choose since workability was a separate criterion. I support your views on the PTI, as also Paul Wilson's proposal to have a staggered transition and how a staggered transition is not lacking for completeness.

While I highly recommend reading the entire post, for the TL;DR crowd: [snip] > The most interesting part of the announcement, however, was not the extension itself but the way the NTIA has finally started to come to grips with the role of Verisign and changes in the root zone management process. Along with the extension announcement, NTIA published a proposal “Root Zone Administrator Proposal Related to the IANA Functions Stewardship Transition.” As we noted in a blog post back in March 2014, it is really the Verisign Cooperative Agreement, not the IANA functions contract, that gives the US government authority over all root zone file changes. It is Verisign, not ICANN, that has operational control of the root zone, so if the Cooperative Agreement with Verisign doesn’t go away, neither does U.S. control of the DNS root. [/snip] [snip] > To conclude, the NTIA-ICANN-Verisign triumvirate seems inconsistent with the overall ethos of open, bottom up development of a transition plan. There are reasons why this is a sticky issue, of course. Still, the U.S. government and ICANN have to be very careful about how they handle this. If the “global multi-stakeholder community” invoked by the original transition announcement goes through an arduous process to replace the IANA functions contract only to learn that Verisign and NTIA still have a compact that gives the U.S. control of root zone changes, their credibility – and the credibility of the entire process model used to develop the transition – will be shot, and the ‘transition’ will have done more damage than good to globalizing Internet governance.

I think the obvious answer is yes, there is. Did the ICG > call this out? No. I don't see the inconsistency here. BTW the GAC members of the ICG put a lot of pressure on the protocols community to specify what they meant by an unspecified jurisdiction and a lot of questions were asked about that and some clarifications were made as we reviewed the IETF proposal. I don't have time to dig up the records now, but will forward something later about how this was handled. In effect the IETF said that since either party has the right to terminate the agreement unilaterally courts and litigation don't necessarily enter into it. PTI was proposed to be a California NPPB Corp, as is ICANN, but since IETF already contracts with such a beast to provide protocol IANA, how is that an inconsistency? > 2.

Yes. Did the ICG call this out? No. The ICG didn't call this out because there is no inconsistency: once PTI is separated from ICANN, names will have a relationship to IANA that is a bit more like the contractual arrangement that numbers and protocols will have. Each OC will have the right to terminate their contract and shift to a new IANA functions operator, however. PTI will have a contract to be the names IANA; the problem here is that ICANN, which is really names community based, currently supplies all three and at least two of the communities want to contract directly with ICANN (as IETF already is). This is due to the fact that PTI is an unknown entity for them. But I don't see an incompatibility; ICANN just subcontracts the function to PTI. Longer term numbers and protocols will probably contract directly with PTI. > Now we might disagree on what constitutes an > inconsistency/compatibility/interoperability, but it seems to me that > "unworkable in a technical sense" is not the only definition for that, nor one > that I would choose since workability was a separate criterion. We did operate with a broader sense of compatibility and consistency. From reading this, I am still having trouble figuring out where you think an incompatibility lies. Can you elaborate? Happy to be pointed to anything we overlooked. The general approach, however, was to accept whatever came out of the OCs with consensus. The simple fact is that no one was terribly interested in changing jurisdiction or making it an issue, in any of the 3 communities. When the issue was explicitly posed, e.g. in the straw poll of the names CWG, it fell flat. -------------- next part -------------- ____________________________________________________________ You received this message as a subscriber on the list: governance at lists.igcaucus.org To be removed from the list, visit: http://www.igcaucus.org/unsubscribing For all other list information and functions, see: http://lists.igcaucus.org/info/governance To edit your profile and to find the IGC's charter, see: http://www.igcaucus.org/ Translate this email: http://translate.google.com/translate_t From milton.mueller at pubpolicy.gatech.edu Fri Aug 28 12:28:32 2015 From: milton.mueller at pubpolicy.gatech.edu (Mueller, Milton L) Date: Fri, 28 Aug 2015 16:28:32 +0000 Subject: [governance] [bestbits] JNC's comments on ICANN oversight (non) transition In-Reply-To: <55E01E6D.2010909@cis-india.org> References: <55D32E4F.7030400@itforchange.net> <55E019B2.5090101@cis-india.org> <55E01E6D.2010909@cis-india.org> Message-ID: Staged transition.

We are not yet out of the woods in this transition on IANA management. With the rise of attacks in cyberspace, despite the global nature of the arrangements, each country would take to build its own security in this virtual world. Is this the right approach to solution ?? what possible technological safeguards to consider? The internet has become a universal heritage because with no physical boundaries. We also find that technological powers are fighting in the shadows to make a bit of power in this new dynamics of global governance not only ICANN, but more particularly the IANA. In my humble opinion, the involvement and participation of civil society in all these processes are becoming increasingly indispensable despite the discrepancies on some positions. 2015-08-29 3:01 GMT+01:00 willi uebelherr : > > Many thanks for this short and clear answer from Louis. > > Dear Suresh, > > it is a question of our perspectives and visions, based on our general > social principles and visions.

Phase 1. There is the hardware, the computer software and the bandwidth from the Telcos. Then there is the idea to interconnect computers in using the bandwdith. Phase 2. Then there is the idea to build a network, i.e. use compters to transport data between computers. Then there is the idea of Louis to concatenate the different local networks into a single catenet. Phase 3. There were three ideas that separately matured and you can easily understand : - the edge to edge pseudowire concept: you as a user feel you have a dedicated wire. RFC 3916: "From the customer perspective, the PW is perceived as an unshared link or circuit" It was the basis for OSI reasoning coupled with X.25/75. - the end to end concept: this is the one you know with the common internet. The architectural references are RFC 1958 and RFC 3439. TCP/IP was used by the Internet - the smart fringe to smart fringe concept: this was the Tymnet technology's one. Being smart it was able to emulate the other two. In addition its internal protcol was secure. Tymnet built the international network. Phase 4 The key problem was RFC 923, i.e. the common interational addressing. Politically TCP/IP prevailed by USG decision and money: everything had to be NSA-compatible. At that time it was not for spying but for not to be hacked. They purchased and eventually closed Tymnet. This delayed the web, but it eventually came in the limited way you know it. Phase 5 Technology is now grown enough to come back to fringe to fringe and experiment its power. This ths target of the XLIBRE community (http://xlibre.net). It may take time. Nevermind, we already lost 40 years (but we have billions of users). Our interest is only in fixing a single BUG (for the American industry to make us believe they can be "Be Unilaterally Global") The "network fragmentation" story is an NTIA fairy tale. The same as if you were telling that the world's roads are fragmented by national borders, so you need the world to be globally American for the lorries to be able to drive from Paris to Beijing. And all the cars to be registered by ICARR.

Always i am very happy to read your discussion parts. Network: We have to seperate this term. We know from our discussion, that we, you and i, have a different view and thinking. In Phase 1 you speak from interconnected computers. It have not necessary to be a net. This, because a star or bus connection topology is not a net for me. A net is a recursive structure of nodes, that are connected to his naighbors. Like fisher net, hammock, woven fibrous materials. But independent, the interconnection of our devices is the base of our "net". In phase 2 i think you speak about our network intentions. But your formulation is not clear in this point. Because we use connected computers to transport our data. And with that step we create the networking. The Phase 3 is not clear for me. Maybe, because we have a very different experience on our way to go inside in this space. I come from the hardware development. And all this specific details in the history with the analog systems i was never interested. But i know, Louis Pouzin have to work in this environment. It is the first time, that i read Tymnet. You see, i am not an expert. Phase 4 and 5: very great your description. Yes, we need time. Good things always need time. Only the bad things goes very fast. In an old text from Richard Hill i have read: Defining the Internet, Richard Hill, April 2013 http://www.apig.ch/news.htm "In a submission to the World Telecommunication Policy Forum, a group of Internet experts has proposed the following points as a starting point for principles that enable the Internet and its advantages to be recognized and distinguished from other terms that may designate technical concepts that are broader or more specialized in nature than the Internet platform: 1. that it is defined in terms of principles of interoperation between networks, 2. that the resulting platform is a general purpose platform, 3. that it is available as a general purpose platform to end users, and 4. that it enables general purpose connectivity directly between end users throughout the globe (or beyond), to all other networks that interoperate on the same terms." Clear, we have to make clear, what is a network for us. But i love this strong definition. What you think about? Maybe, you know, who are the writers. Richard do not answer to my mail. Maybe, he was involved in my kickout from JNC and do not like any direct connection. Yes, we are tolerant. And to the fragmentation? I see it like you. And i have another question to you. Brian Carpenter wrote a Public Comment to the ICG proposal: 6) Do you believe the proposal maintains the security, stability, and resiliency of the DNS? "I've been concerned since 1998 that unchecked expansion of the number of gTLDs will eventually take us into uncharted territory from a technical resilience point of view. I see no technical and operational feedback mechanism to protect us against this operational risk in the proposal. I would like to see a multistakeholder DNS Operations Committee with a clear role in identifying DNS-wide technical issues and pressing for their resolution. This is pretty much orthogonal to the contractual and clerical issues covered in the current proposal." I was somewhat surprised. But perhaps I interpret this to positive as an activist for the ccTLDs and the dexentralized self-organizing? many greetings, willi Salvador, Brasil Am 29/08/2015 um 21:00 schrieb JFC Morfin: > Dear Willi, > let be clear about all this. > > Phase 1. > There is the hardware, the computer software and the bandwidth from the > Telcos. > Then there is the idea to interconnect computers in using the bandwdith. > > Phase 2. > Then there is the idea to build a network, i.e. use compters to > transport data between computers. > Then there is the idea of Louis to concatenate the different local > networks into a single catenet. > > Phase 3. > There were three ideas that separately matured and you can easily > understand : > > - the edge to edge pseudowire concept: > you as a user feel you have a dedicated wire.

This opens new research opportunities for business process data analysis, mining and modeling. The aim of the IFIP 2.6 International Symposium on Data-Driven Process Discovery and Analysis is to offer a forum where researchers from different communities and the industry can share their insight in this hot new field. The Symposium will feature a number of keynotes illustrating advanced approaches, shorter presentations on recent research, a competitive PhD seminar and selected research and industrial demonstrations. This year the symposium will be held in Vienna, a city in the UNESCO World Heritage List. Call for Papers The IFIP International Symposium on Data-Driven Process Discovery and Analysis (SIMPDA 2014) offers a unique opportunity to present new approaches and research results to researchers and practitioners working in business process data modeling, representation and privacy-aware analysis. The symposium will bring together leading researchers, engineers and scientists from around the world. Full papers must not exceed 15 pages. Short papers are limited to at most 4 pages. All papers must be original contributions, not previously published or under review for publication elsewhere. All contributions must be written in English and must follow the LNCS Springer Verlag format. Templates can be downloaded from: http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html Accepted papers will be published in a pre-proceeding volume of CEUR workshop series. The authors of the accepted papers will be invited to submit extended articles to a post-symposium proceedings volume which will be published in the LNBIP series (Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing, http://www.springer.com/series/7911), scheduled for early 2015 (extended papers length will be between 7000 and 9000 words). Around 10-15 papers will be selected for publication after a second round of review. Topics of interest for submission include, but are not limited to: - Business Process modeling languages, notations and methods - Lightweight Process Model - Data-aware and data-centric approaches - Process Mining with Big Data - Variability and configuration of process models - Process simulation and static analyses - Process data query languages - Process data mining - Privacy-aware process data mining - Process metadata and semantic reasoning - Process patterns and standards - Foundations of business process models - Resource management in business process execution - Process tracing and monitoring - Process change management and evolution - Business process lifecycle - Case studies and experience reports - Social process discovery - Crowdsourced process definition and discovery IMPORTANT DATES Paper Submission: 3 October 2015 Submission of PhD Presentations: 3 October 2015 Notification of Acceptance: 7 November 2015 Submission of Camera Ready Papers: 21 November 2015 Second International Symposium on Process Data: 9-11 December 2015 Post-proceeding submissions: 30 March 2016 Workshop Format: In accordance to our historical tradition of proposing SIMPDA as a symposium, we propose an innovative format for this workshop: The number of sessions depend on the number of submissions but, considering the previous editions, we envisage to have four sessions, with 4-5 related papers assigned to each session. A special session (with a specific review process) will be dedicated to discuss research plan from PhD students. Papers are pre-circulated to the authors that will be expected to read all papers in advance but to avoid exceptional overhead, two are assigned to be prepared with particular care, making ready comments and suggestions. The bulk of the time during each session will be dedicated to open conversations about all of the papers in a given session, along with any linkages to the papers and discussions within an earlier session. The closing session (30 minutes), will include a panel about open challenges during which every participant will be asked to assemble their thoughts/project ideas/goals/etc that they got out of the workshop. Call for PhD Research Plans The SIMPDA PhD Seminar is a workshop for Ph.D. students from all over the world. The goal of the Seminar is to help students with their thesis and research plans by providing feedback and general advice on how to use their research results. Students interested in participating in the Seminar should submit an extended abstract describing their research. Submissions can relate to any aspect of Process Data: technical advances, usage and impact studies, policy analyses, social and institutional implications, theoretical contributions, interaction and design advances, innovative applications, and social implications. Research plans should be at most of 5 page long and should be organized following the following structure: Abstract: summarizes, in 5 line, the research aims and significance. Research Question: defines what will be accomplished by eliciting the relevant the research questions. Background: defines the background knowledge providing the 5 most relevant references (papers or books). Significance: explains the relevance of the general topic and of the specific contribution. Research design and methods: describes and motivates the method adopted focusing on: assumptions, solutions, data sources, validation of results, limitations of the approach. Research stage: describes what the student has done so far. SIMPDA PhD award A doctoral award will be given by the SIMPDA PhD Jury to the best research plan submitted. Student Scholarships An application for a limited number of scholarships aimed at students coming from emerging countries has been submitted to IFIP. In order to apply, please contact paolo.ceravolo at unimi.it Keynote Speakers Visual Analytics meets Process Mining: Challenges and Opportunities Theresia Gschwandtner and Silvia Miksch Vienna University of Technology Event data or traces of activities often exhibit unexpected behavior and complex relations. Thus, before and during the application of automated analysis methods, such as process mining algorithms, the analyst needs to investigate and understand the data at hand in order to decide which analysis methods might be appropriate. Visual Analytics integrates the outstanding capabilities of humans in terms of visual information exploration with the enormous processing power of computers to form a powerful knowledge discovery environment. The combination of visual data exploration with process mining algorithms makes complex information structures more comprehensible and facilitates new insights. In this talk, we will illustrate the various concepts of visual process mining, focusing on the challenges, but also the great opportunities for analyzing process data with Visual Analytics methods.

I know this is a treacherous territory, given an extra ordinary (and completely inappropriate) sensitivity to being asked questions by some groups, but my apologies, I cannot but ask them in pursuance of my public interest work, however distasteful it may be even for me to get into this thing.... This is being called a 'consultation' and further an 'Asian Regional' consultation, on what is a global governance process, and so some questions arise in my mind: (1) who is funding this 'consultation' (2) on what criteria participants were determined, and invitations sent, and by whom - were all concerned people invited (that, in my view, would be a consultation) (3) On what criteria funding for participation was provided, and by whom, and who decided it.. Thanks for answering these public interest questions... I may declare that my interest got evoked from the knowledge that no member of the Just Net Coalition has been invited... IT for Change is among very few groups in Asia Pacific which has been engaged with the WSIS process from the start, and very thoroughly engaged. Further, there is in fact an Asia Pacific Regional CSO Engagement Mechanism , which describes itself as "APRCEM is a civil society platform aimed to enable stronger cross constituency coordination and ensure that voices of all sub-regions of Asia Pacific are heard in intergovernmental processes in regional and global level. The platform is initiated, owned and driven by the CSOs, and has been set up under the auspices of UN-ESCAP and seeks to engage with UN agencies and Member States on the Post-2015 as well as other development related issues/processes. " In fact the APRCEM also has an Science and Technology Constituency which works as an active network (of which IT for Change is a member) which has begun to work closely with the Just Net Coalition (many JNC members also being its members) and the Internet Social Forum initiatives, which shows its interest in Internet issues... As far as I know no member of this network, or the network as a whole, has been involved in this so-called "Asia Regional Consultation' which being on a UN process this group would be natural constituency... All of which makes me wonder, and so my questions.. parminder On Wednesday 26 August 2015 08:21 PM, Anja Kovacs wrote: > Dear all, > > The Internet Democracy Project, Bytes for All, APNIC, the Association > for Progressive Communications, ISOC, Global Partners Digital and ICT > Watch are together organising an *Asian Regional Consultation on the > WIS+10 Review* from 3 to 5 September in Pattaya, Thailand. > > > The Asian Regional Consultation on the WSIS+10 Review will bring > together experts from different backgrounds and from around the Asian > region who are concerned about issues concerning ICTs, sustainable > development, human rights and Internet governance, to ask: *what are > the issues that our governments need to squarely address in the > process of the review? > * > > > The meeting is timed so as to be able for the group to comment on the > non-paper that will have been released by the co-facilitators of the > review process in late August (inputs into that paper can be made by > all stakeholders and are due on 31 July).The group will take stock of > the extent to which priorities for the Asian region have been > reflected in the non-paper, and will work together on formulating a > joint comment on the non-paper (comments on the non-paper will be due > in mid-September, and will be drawn on by the co-facilitators to > formulate a zero-draft).
