Adib is waiting to hear from colleague (Dr. Nordin: chair of ISTT2014), there was no update as of this meeting. The conference is 2 days so the workshop may be squeezed to one day. The conference will be held in Langkawi between 24-26 Nov.
Hopefully, this will help us to attract good number of participants and get sponsor/support to cover our expenditure. Other option is to conduct the workshop in UUM, we are ready to provide Local Arrangement (lab, local transportation, and food). But there is no funding provided by the school to support the transportation/accommodation of the speakers.
Les will be in Burkina Faso Nov 13-21. He flies back to London on Nov 22nd. He can get to Malaysia mid morning November 24th. Thus the workshop should be at the end of the ISTT2014 meeting if Les is to attend.
Renan
Renan 's paper on "Linked Open Data Publication Strategies: Application in Networking Performance Measurement Data" submitted to the Academy of Science 2014 Bigdata / SocialCom / Cybersecurity conference at Stanford May 27-31 has been accepted for a poster session. He is looking into travel funding, else Bebo and Les will try and cover. Renan has to respond in the paper to some questions raised by reviewer(s) Renan and his supervisor will be coming to Stanford for the meeting.
UM
Badrul is still awaiting hearing from his student (Abdulrahim Haroun Ali) on the paper on anomalies in PingER measurements and will update later once the paper ready.
