       Invitation to the Second Symposium on Problems in
         the Optimization of Data Communication Systems

One session of the Symposium on problems in the optimization of data communication networks is to be devoted to software for networks. I believe that the work on protocols (1st, 2nd, and 3rd level) and file transmission procedures are highly relevant. NWG participants should welcome the opportunity to inject their ideas into the published literature. Many NWG/RFC's already are in good enough shape for publication so don't hesitate to submit your drafts. Time is short, so prompt action is essential.
