<br>
It is that time again. Time to register for the Summer 2006 ESCC/Internet2
Joint Techs Workshop, which will be held in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City
w:st="on">Madison</st1:City>, <st1:State w:st="on">Wisconsin</st1:State></st1:place>
starting Sunday, July 16 and ending Wednesday July 19, with post meetings going
through Thursday, July 20. This workshop will have three main focal areas:
Optical Networks (still a hot topic), Security, and R&E Networks as a
System. In the third focal area we will be looking at how we can best serve the
R&E community, given all the various networks involved. There will also be
updates from participating networks, as well as case studies, demonstrations,
birds-of-a-feather (BoF) sessions, and presentations on timely topics in
high-performance networking. Joint Techs Workshops provide an unsurpassed
information-sharing forum for the research and education network engineering
community.<br>
<br>
Date Reminders:<br>
The cutoff for the hotel block is June 23, 2006, at midnight CST.<br>
Registration fees increase after 5:00pm EDT on Sunday, July 2.<br>
<br>

other side meeting, please fill out the online submission form at:<br>
