Dear CS and ECE Majors,


The Information Networking Institute at Carnegie Mellon wants to be sure
that you know about our 14-16 month Master's program for Computer
Science and Electrical Engineering majors.  To acquaint you with the
program, we are holding an information
session on Thursday, November 4 from 5-6:30 in Wean Hall, Room  4623.


Pizza and soda will be provided.  To give us some idea of how much pizza to
order,
please RSVP to Sue Jones, Graduate Program Coordinator / INI at
sj1q@andrew.


If you would like to visit our offices and the students' computer cluster,
please stop by.
We are located in Hamburg Hall A020.

See us at http://www.ini.cmu.edu


Formed in 1989, the Information Networking Institute provides Carnegie
Mellon University's focus for information networking research and graduate
studies.  Information networking integrates the disciplines of computer
science, electrical engineering,  business, and policy studies to meet the
full range of communication needs.

The Institute is sponsored by a variety of information technology supplier
and user corporations and is in the business of providing access for its
sponsors to high quality research.


The Institute provides two integrated avenues to research:
- The applied research program where sponsors share (according to
contribution) in specific research efforts.  These currently focus on
wireless and mobile computing,  reaching the consumer in the home,
electronic commerce, and voice over IP;
- The highest quality, interdisciplinary Masters program to prepare recent
undergraduates for the challenges of working in new technology


The Institute is particularly noted for its leadership in wireless research
supporting  a major cooperative research program including systems
research, innovative computer platforms for mobile use, compression
research and human factors of mobile usage. In addition, the Institute was
the prime initiator and implementor of Wireless Andrew, a 2.0 Mb per second
wireless access network covering most of the campus buildings. The
Institute has also been a leader in developing mobile applications for
emergency response, health care, vehicle maintenance systems, and systems
for the mining and construction industries.  The IEEE Personal
Communications issue February 1996 (Mobile Computing at Carnegie Mellon) is
entirely devoted to papers from this initiative.


The founding sponsor in 1989 was Bell Communications Research.  Sponsors
have included: ABB, Adtranz, AEG Transportation, Ameritech, AT&T, Bell
Atlantic, Bell Atlantic Mobile Systems, Bell South, Caterpillar, Cincinnati
Bell, Daimler-Chrysler, DARPA, Digital Equipment Corporation, General
Instruments, Hitachi Limited, Indiana Bell, Lucent Technologies, Manitoba
Telephone, Matra Communications, the National Science Foundation, NEC,
Nippon Mining, Nokia, NTT, Nynex, Pacific Bell, Sargent Electric, Southern
New England Bell, Southwestern Bell, US West, and Wisconsin Bell.


The Institute, which is part of the Carnegie Institute of Technology, works
through several key organizations in the University, notably:
- the School of Computer Science;
- the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and the Department
of Engineering and Public Policy; and,
- the Graduate School of Industrial Administration.
