=======================================================================
The Organizing Committee of the Federated Conference 2002 solicits 
tutorial proposals. Each tutorial will be presented in a 3 hour session 
depending on the material covered.

Proposals for tutorials should contain:

* A brief description of the tutorial, including: goals, detailed 
  outline, justification of why the tutorial is important, background 
  knowledge required and potential attendees.

* Information about the tutorial speakers including name, address, 
  affiliation, email, phone and fax.

* A Short CV of the presenter(s), including background in the tutorial 
  area, references to published work in the area.

* A list of audio-visual or technical requirements and any special room 
  requirements.

* Description of the supporting material to be distributed at the
  symposium (e.g., lecture notes, copies of slides, etc.)

The choice of tutorial topics is left open to the presenter. However, it
will be interesting if the topics address the issues involved from the
three different perspectives underlying the federated conference, viz.
infrastructure, semantics and applications. 

Proposals should be sent by e-mail ONLY to:
