For 60 years the International Federation for Information
Processing (IFIP) has been advancing research in Information and
Communication Technology (ICT). This book looks into both past
experiences and future perspectives using the core of IFIP's
competence, its Technical Committees (TCs) and Working Groups
(WGs). Soon after IFIP was founded, it established TCs and related
WGs to foster the exchange and development of the scientific and
technical aspects of information processing. IFIP TCs are as
diverse as the different aspects of information processing, but
they share the following aims: To establish and maintain liaison
with national and international organizations with allied interests
and to foster cooperative action, collaborative research, and
information exchange. To identify subjects and priorities for
research, to stimulate theoretical work on fundamental issues, and
to foster fundamental research which will underpin future
development. To provide a forum for professionals with a view to
promoting the study, collection, exchange, and dissemination of
ideas, information, and research findings and thereby to promote
the state of the art. To seek and use the most effective ways of
disseminating information about IFIP's work including the
organization of conferences, workshops and symposia and the timely
production of relevant publications. To have special regard for the
needs of developing countries and to seek practicable ways of
working with them. To encourage communication and to promote
interaction between users, practitioners, and researchers. To
foster interdisciplinary work and - in particular - to collaborate
with other Technical Committees and Working Groups. The 17
contributions in this book describe the scientific, technical, and
further work in TCs and WGs and in many cases also assess the
future consequences of the work's results. These contributions
explore the developments of IFIP and the ICT profession now and
over the next 60 years. The contributions are arranged per TC and
conclude with the chapter on the IFIP code of ethics and conduct.
