Invitation to be a speaker at the SSGRR 2002s Conference in L`Aquila near Rome, Italy (Jul 29 - Aug 4 2002.)

Tue Apr 2 21:41:27 PST 2002

Honorable Professor,

I have been appointed to serve as the General Chair of the Summer 2002
edition of the SSGRR series of international conferences,
and I would like to extend a special invitation to you.

The SSGRR-2002S (Summer) conference on
"Infrastructure for e-Business, e-Education, e-Science, and e-Medicine"
takes place in SSGRR (Scuola Superiore G. Reiss Romoli), the delux
congress and educational center of the Telecom Italia Group of companies.

This is in L'Aquila near Rome, Italy, from July 29
(Monday) at 5pm (start of the Grand Opening) till August 4 (Sunday) at
10am (departure of busses to the Rome airport Fiumicino and the
railway station Tiburtina).

Most of the past participants beleive that this was one of the most
interesting, most useful, and definitely THE most hospitable conference
they ever attended.

The SSGRR-2002S will be open by Jerome Friedman from MIT
(laureate of the NOBEL PRIZE) and Travor Gruen-Kennedy of Citrix
(listed by some sources, together with Bill Gates,
as one of the world's TOP-25 contributors to the
development of the Internet).

For details, see the WWW site of the conference
(www.ssgrr.it/en/ssgrr2002s/index.htm).
Among other things, this WWW site also includes the full-blown version
of the invitation letter-contract, with all relevant details
(www.ssgrr.it/en/ssgrr2002s/invitation.htm).

The soft deadline for you to decide if you are coming is April 21,
2002 (in the worst case you should respond before April 28th). By that
date the place for you is unconditionally reserved. After
that date, you will be accepted to the conference only if the existing
240 places are not filled.

Before April 21, 2002, please send only the following: (a) TITLE,
(b) AUTHORS, (c) AFFILIATION, (d) ABSTRACT, and (e) STATEMENT THAT YOU
WILL COME 100% (answers like "maybe" will be treated as NO answer from
you). The full paper is due on April 28, 2002.

The early registration price for the 6-day stay at SSGRR is EURO1200
(if you represent an institution) or EURO1440 (if you come as an
individual). Coming without a paper costs you extra EURO600 or EURO720,
respectively. Deadline for the early registration is June 30, 2002.

If you come with an accompanying person, the early registration extra
cost is EURO300, for 6 days of bed and breakfast, in an external hotel
(please note that the best external hotels are 4-star, and not nearly
as comfortable as the accomodation in the SSGRR complex). The SSGRR
complex includes only single-bed rooms, and therefore available only
to those who come without an accompanying person.

If you have any questions, please check the WWW site of the conference
and especially the part entitled FAQ(Frequently Asked Questions). If
you still have questions or there is something that we can do for you,
please write to Organizing Committee
at ssgrr2002s at rti7020.etf.bg.ac.yu (preferred)
or if absolutely neccessary, to myself directly (vm at etf.bg.ac.yu).

Sincerely yours,

Professor V. M. Milutinovic,
General Chair of the SSGRR-2002S
(galeb.etf.bg.ac.yu/~vm/)
