ERIS LAB TO HOST SOFTWARE RELIABILITY WORKSHOP - Friday, June 14 On Friday, June 14, Mike Bigrigg will conduct the ERIS 2002 Spring Seminar on Reliable Software Development. This one-day workshop will focus on software debugging and code maintenance. Intended for senior software developers and software development managers, this all-day mini-course focuses on the problems of debugging with respect to such topics as the compilation process, memory management, and I/O interfacing. More than just a "lecture," this software development workshop is designed to help developers come together to form a common understanding of how to build reliable software. For more information about this event, please visit our seminar web site at http://www.ices.cmu.edu/eris/spring2002.html or contact Dana Hilinski at hilinski@andrew.cmu.edu. |

IEEE
WETICE-2002 WORKSHOP TO BE HELD AT CMU Carnegie Mellon has been chosen for the site of this year's IEEE WET-ICE Workshop. The Eleventh International Workshops on Enabling Technologies: Infrastructure for Collaborative Enterprises (WETICE) is an annual, international forum for state-of-the-art research in enabling technologies for collaboration. WETICE-2002 will consist of a number of workshops on different topics related to collaboration technology. What sets WET ICE apart from larger conferences is that the workshops are kept small enough to promote fruitful discussions on the latest technology developments, directions, problems, and requirements. Each workshop will include paper presentations and working group discussions, as well as keynote sessions and a final joint session to summarize each group's findings. ICES'
own Eswaran Subrahmanian and Cristina Amon are serving as the Local Co-Chairs
for WETICE-2002. For more information about the workshop, please contact
Dana Hilinski at hilinski@andrew.cmu.edu. |

INEWS SET FOR REVAMP AND SUMMER HIATUS Over the next few months, iNews will take a short hiatus while it undergoes complete redesign. To increase functionality and convenience, the revamped iNews will be better integrated with the ICES web page, which is also undergoing redesign. The website is being revamped to better serve our laboratories, centers, industrial partners, CIT/ICES faculty, students and the entire Carnegie Mellon academic community. To assist with the project, Jean-Paul Gisclair recently joined ICES as a web design intern. "JP." will be on board for the entire summer, helping ICES' Graphic Designer, Donna Yocum, with the restructuring project. Yocum is currently polling the ICES community through a general survey about the functionality and design of the ICES web site. If you would like to submit your input, or you would like a copy of the survey, please contact Donna Yocum at donnay@andrew.cmu.edu. The
revamping project is scheduled to be completed over the next three months.
In order to best accommodate the redesign project, iNews will not release
future editions during the summer. Look for the new and improved iNews
and ICES web site in September 2002! |

| ICES-DOWD
FELLOWSHIP SELECTION IS UNDERWAY
The
Philip and Marsha Dowd Engineering Seed Fund call for proposals was announced
in the March/April edition of iNews. The fellowship grant program, administered
through ICES, will award a grant to a CIT graduate student in the second
or third year of his/her graduate studies. The objective is to provide
support for a graduate student that is working on a cutting edge research
project for which traditional sources of funding may not be readily available. |

Tiffany
Booth, who has been working at ICES as the Administrative Assistant for
the past two years will be leaving this August to pursue her graduate
degree in psychology. Tiffany will be moving to New York City where she
will once again become a full-time student. She is looking forward to
these new challenges but will thoroughly miss everyone she has worked
with here at Carnegie Mellon. |
To submit information for the next edition of iNews, please contact Tiffany Booth at tbooth@andrew.cmu.edu
