Hello,

I am proud (aren't we always?) to announce the broadcast of selected
technical sessions from IEEE's ICC 97 conference, which will happen
in Montreal from June 8th to June 12th.

ICC 97 is the International Conference on Communications which
is sponsered by IEEE. For more info about this conference, you
can go to http://happy.comsoc.org/confs/ICC/97/

The broadcast will last 3 days, from June 9 to June 11, inclusive. 
Rebroadcasts will take place at night to accomodate our friends
on the other side of the planet.

In the following schedule, a SAS session is a Systems, Applications and 
Services session.

Thanks,
Yves Lepage
