-------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Zusammenarbeit mit DeTeBerkom und dem Proze�rechenzentrum der TU-Berlin,
ist die Projektgruppe KIT einer der Gastgeber der Fourth International
Distributed Summer School on Advanced Broadband Communications.

Die Konferenz findet als eine �ber ATM-Netze verteilte Konferenz an 24
europ�ischen Orten gleichzeitig statt. Dabei ist die TU Berlin einer der
f�nf Hauptveranstaltungsorte, an dem die Konferenzbeitr�ge per Video und
Audio verfolgt werden k�nnen und das Publikum Fragen stellen kann. Zwei
Vortr�ge und ein Teil der Moderation aus Berlin �bertragen.

Die Teilnehmer in Berlin verfolgen die Konferenz durch eine
Leinwandprojektion per Beamer. Die Konferenzsprache ist Englisch. Es ist
auch m�glich, nur an einzelnen Sessions teilzunehmen.

Mit der erstmalig auch in Berlin stattfindenden Summerschool l��t sich
einerseits eine Reihe Fachvortr�ge zu neuesten Entwicklungen in der
Breitbandkommunikation verfolgen, gleichzeitig Teilnehmer an einer der
ersten verteilten Konferenzen sein, bei der Referenten, Zuh�rer,
Fragesteller und Session chairs nicht mehr an einem einzigen Konferenzort
sein m�ssen.

Konferenzthema

This year the School plans to interconnect sites in most European countries,
including Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland,
Italy, Luxembourg, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UK.

It will include tutorials, lectures, panels, interviews, debates and
demonstration of results achieved within ACTS R&D projects. The theme will
be :

The Convergence of Engineering Cultures in Telecommunications and
Information Technology.

Specific issues to be addressed include

   * Information Technology for Telecommunications Engineers
        o Networking and distributed computing techniques
        o Multimedia application systems
        o Structuring application program interfaces using object-oriented
          techniques
   * Service and Telecommunications Engineering for Information Technology
     Engineers
        o Telecommunications management and intelligent networks
        o Mobile telecommunications and access networks
        o Service engineering techniques
   * Telecommunications and Information System Integration
        o Construction techniques for complex systems
        o Engineering the Information Superhighway
        o Integrating engineering and organisational complexity

The 1996 Summer School will be a distributed event where a multimedia CSCW
(Computer Supported Co-operative Work) tele-education application will join
the lecture rooms of the different physical sites into a single virtual
lecture room such that lecturers and participants lose the sense of physical
separation and work together with full interaction.

The Summer School and the NICE project are supported by the European
Commission through the ACTS programme. The Summer School also is supported
by the G7 GIBN (Global Infrastructure for Broadband networks) initiative.
