I am really pleased that Francesco Carassa will share duties with me in chairing the sessions. I am also pleased that in addition to the Fellows, the distinguished guests will be invited to all the activities. The two I know well, Professor Wolf of University of California and Dr. Wyner of Bell Labs are both renowned scientists and members of our National Academy of Engineering. They are coming because they were ~ominatorsof Professor Ziv. I am enclosing a copy of my recent book. In the preface I acknowledge the important encouragement and support of the Marconi International Foundation. Finally, a related matter. In Linda's latest note, she refers to the lack of a "budget" for the publication of Proceedings of the Marconi Centennial Symposium. This should not be necessary. I believe a number of publishing houses would be only too happy to fully support such an undertaking and possibly even pay royalties to the Foundation. To test the waters, I've spoken to my publisher's representative at Addison-Wesley and he seemed enthusiastic. I can put him in touch with you, if you like. One condition, however, I do not want to take editorial responsibility. Another of your Fellows should do so. I tried to suggest it to Bob Lucky but I am afraid he is as busy as I am. It is not a large task but may involve dealing with people's sensitivities, and pulling together the symposium program has given me enough opportunity for such. Erna and I look forward to the marvellous series of events you have arranged in Rome and Bologna. Andrew J.

He will now particpate, and I understand that a sharing of duties will be worked out. Re the printing of the Symposium proceedings, this will not happen prior to the event. I have, to date, ~eived only 7 papers. Additionally, no budget has been made available for this project, to this point. I have mentioned the confusion of affairs in Italy - over which I have very little control. The up side of this is that changes in papers can be made following the Symposium so that the final versions would, hopefully, be improved. Tomorrow I expect to receive a much revised draft version of the Symposium program from the Bologna organizers.

In particular, I do not want to upstage my friend, Francesco Carassa. He is deservedly recognized as the foremost Italian communication engineering professor and leader. This type of recognition means a lot more to him than to me. (By the way I feel his command of English is quite good). Perhaps we could share the duties. Please handle as you deem appropriate and let me know. AJV/ dc (Q-ffl' I,' c. t-,' Dl\ r) ~ t-/ t ( , S' • 0 f P ~ -1:'" P~(,Lff f~a~ v-z.'-~ .> ~ ( " . $". c ~ '"-r ('I...

The title of the first speaker 0 n Friday afternoon is disconnected from his name. It appears thus that Professor Jacob Ziv is giving Professor Hagenauer's speech, etc. Also Kleinrock's paper title has been changed to "Nomadic Computing."

Please note the following: 1) Len Kleinrock has changed his talk's title to "Nomadic Computing." This should be reflected in the final program. 2) The program is now in the hands of Mrs. Braga and the Italian organizers. It is up to them to make any further decisions. The only constraints are that Lucky and Ziv must be on Friday (leaving for Washington that evening) and Decina must be on Saturday. 3) My daughter Audrey and her family will not be able to come as she is expecting a child. She sends her thanks for the invitation. 4) Professor Jack Wolf, one of the nominators of Ziv for this year's award and a close friend of his and mine, will be coming to Rome and Bologna with Mrs. Wolf to attend the ceremonies. Could you please see that he receives an invitation. His address is CMRR, Mail Code 0401 University California San Diego La Jolla, CA 92093-0401 5) I need to start making hotel reservations. Could you please Fax to Debbie as soon as possible the hotel names and locations in Rome and Bologna and the dates for which rooms have been blocked off?

I respond as follows: 1. I have drafted and enclose an overall statement on the purpose and nature of the Centennial Symposium. The last sentence may need to be expanded upon, and possibly inserted earlier, according to local preferences. 2. I leave it to you and the local organizers to select the title for the symposium. 3. Regarding the extension of the first session into a panel discussion, I also leave this to you. I doubt, however, that the Cavalieri, who will presumably address industrial policy, and the basic scientists of the first session will have much to discuss in common. I offer, nonetheless, the following constructive suggestions for relieving time constraints, if such a panel is included: Since I am the last speaker of the day, remove my slot, thus reducing the program length by about half an hour. I could then be inserted at the end ·of the Saturday morning session in place of Eric Ash. Ash would move to the afternoon session (probably after Paresce) since Arthur Clarke's virtual .cancellation and reduction to a 10 minute Videotape gives us some breathing space there. I leave the rest in your most capable hands. w/ Andrew J. Viterbi Chief Technical Officer AJVIde One hundred years ago, Guglielmo Marconi performed experiments which launched us into the information age, establishing the startling concept that information, in every form, could be conveyed over virtually unlimited distances by wave propagation. The research, development and commercial exploitation of this concept has become such a vast enterprise that a commemorative symposium can only touch upon a few of its consequences, which are currently in our focus.

In addition, an opening session will explore the consequences of industrial telecommunication policy. ..Y1.10:0 A~OW31 O~ 3 13:)3~ 'OI~V~S AVI3~ oIJ.V.J I [I I WO:) (;9 9. I'llOd - J.L1m ~uv I J.

I have a push down stack of stuff, and it just worked its way to the top. Anyway, let me give it a shot now. liThe Evolution of Broadband in the Telecommunications Infrastructure" (I think I gave a slightly different title to you earlier, but I donlt care much which you use.) Engineers have been talking about broadband services for more than two decades now. A multitude of papers and talks have predicted that someday we would have the capability for video telephony and high speed data transmission. Suddenly, it seems that long-projected day is here; { Optical fiber provided the bandwidth, ATM gave us a standard platform for using it, and multimedia services created a sudden market opportunity. The planets seem to be aligned for broadband. However, amidst all the noise and clamor, it is not at all clear what will emerge. Nearly all the highly acclaimed service announcements are merely showcase experiments using expensive equipment. The economics of both the infrastructure and the potential market are much debated. There is also a great clash about whether we are building an entertainment infrastructure, in which the broadband is primarily one-direction, broadcast, or an information infrastructure, in which the broadband is bi-directional. The evolution of the infrastructure seems currently to be at a pivotal point that could tilt decisively in either direction. Printed for viterbi@qualcomm.com (Andrew J. Viterbi) 1 1 ] .-.

National Centerfor Science Information Systems. and Professor Emeritus. University ofTokyo Information technology is changing the whole world profoundly. Pervasive power of radio, television and package media has dismantled iron cunain and thereby put an end to the cold war. Information technology is the technology for freedom. Global connectivity provided by telecorrununications has combined various aspects of societal activities that in the past were often functionally or geographically separated. Information technology is the technology for integration. Computers and automation have brought a drastic change in industrial and business structure and thereby supported sustained economic growth of the world. Information technology is the technology for prosperity. Deep space probes and bio·medical electronics have remarkably extended human knowledge into macrocosm as well as microcosm. Information technology is the technology for discovery. Electronics for traffic control and medical care have contributed to enhance safety and health of our daily life. Information technology is the technology for welfare. There will be almost unending list of benefits the information technology is blinging us for a better world. To a large extent, this new world will be created on the basis of a powerful information int'rasuucture, an enonnous network of networks open to everyone in the world to communi cate each other and to have access to many roversified infonnation resources connected to it. Digital technology has been and will continue to be the prime mover for such progress. As a result] various modes of information services that exist today will converge together to utilize the information infrastructure. The same infrastructure is bound to have a significant influence on education, science and culture and will lead to remarkable advances that involve an interactive and ·participatory approach in leaming and appreciation of artistic, literary and scientific creations.. This infonnation infrastructure. however, requires a great deal of wOrldwwide collaboration on a variety of issues for its planning, construction and operation. The issues include: restructuring regulations to take full advantage of convergence of service nl0des, ensuring equality and openness of the use of informacion infrastructure by maintaining inter-operability and settling on international 1 '05 03/08 11:41 17'03 3942 6900 ACSIS ''J?bjj IlJ 004/005 standard, protecting and utilizing intellectual property adequately. and developing di versified information resources. Information infrastructure, no matter how powerful, is nothing more than a tool for human beings. Utilization of this powerful tool is left solely in the hands of our society. In an era of information explosion, everyone wishes to receive authentic information through secure and reliable infrasrructure. while avoiding infringement upon others' privacy. Integrity of information;if not secured properly, will seriously undermine the benefits of the information infrastl"ucture. The dramatic change in industrial and business structure that has been brought about by the information infrastructure, is leading to a loss ofjobs in traditional areas and a shortage of workers in emerging areas. Smooth shift of workforce is therefore crucial to insure sustained economic growth while alleviating unemployment. Automation in pw'Suit of productivity and economy tends to tum machines less fliendly to human beings. The infOlmation infrastructure being build should provide human-friendly interlaces to the nlaXimum possible extent. What everyone is looking fol' is cultural satisfaction and happine!'s. The information infrastructure can find a place in the history of civilization only when it is squarely geared to enhancing the cultural creativity of mankind and to preserving cultural identity of diversified communities. The progress of infonnation infrastructure and the success of societal development depend heavily on available human resources. The same intormation infrastructule is now providing a wonderful opponuniry of interactive and participatory learning environment rhrough ears and eyes. Human resources development should be given top priority for bringing a better future, 2 '05 03/08 11:41 '0'03 3942 6900 NACSIS "J?WJ Short Biography Hiroshi Inose raJ005/005 Hiros~ INOSE recejved BE and DE degrees in electrical engineering both from the University of Tokyo in 1948 and 1955 respectively.

I am now looking forward to seeing you, Mrs. Braga and many other Marconi Fellows in Rome and Bologna. In accordance with Ms. Mihalko's instructions, I am sending you herewith the title and abstract of my presentation at the Symposium, I sincerely hope this would meet your requirement. Looking forward to seeing you in Italy in June, Sincerely yours, . /. {1 7~$"r...:.~ Hiroshi Inose Director General P.S. I am also sending you herewith my short biography HI/as Copy to Ms. Linda Mihalko An Integrated Digital World ABSTRACT Hiroshi INOSE Director General, National Center for Science Information Systems, and Professor Emeritus, University of Tokyo Information technology is changing the whole world profoundly. Pervasive power of radio, television and package media has dismantled iron curtain and thereby put an end to the cold war. Information technology is the technology for freedom. Global connectivity provided by telecommunications has combined various aspects of societal activities that in the past were often functionally or geographically separated. Information technology is the technology for integration. Computers and automation have brought a drastic change in industrial and business structure and thereby supported sustained economic growth of the world. Information technology is the technology for prosperity. Deep space probes and bio-medical electronics have remarkably extended human knowledge into macrOCOSlTI as well as microcosm. Information technology is the technology for discovery. Electronics for traffic control and medical care have contributed to enhance safety and health of our daily life. Infonnation technology is the technology for welfare. There will be almost unending list of benefits the information technology is bringing us for a better world. To a large extent, this new world will be created on the basis of a powerful information infrastructure, an enormous network of networks open to everyone in the world to communicate each other and to have access to many diversified information resources connected to it. Digital technology has been and will continue to be the prime mover for such progress. As a result, various modes of information services that exist today will converge together to utilize the information infrastructure. The same infrastructure is bound to have a significant influence on education, science and culture and will lead to remarkable advances that involve an interactive and pal1icipatory approach in learning and appreciation of artistic, literary and scientific creations. This information infrastructure, however, requires a great deal of world-wide collaboration on a variety of issues for its planning, construction and operation. The issues include : restructuring regulations to take full advantage of convergence of service nlodes, ensuLing equality and openness of the use of information infrastructure by maintaining inter-operability and settling on international 1 tandard, protecting and utilizing intellectual property adequately, and developing diversified information resources. Information infrastructure, no matter how powerful, is nothing more than a tool for human beings. Utilization of this powerful tool is left solely in the hands of our society. In an era of information explosion, everyone wishes to receive authentic information through secure and reliable infrastructure, whil.e avoiding infringement upon others' privacy. Integrity of information, if not secured properly, will seriously undermine the benefits of the information infrastructure. The dramatic change in industrial and business structure that has been brought about by the information infrastructure, is leading to a loss ofjobs in traditional areas and a shortage of workers in emerging areas. Smooth shift of workforce is therefore.crucial to insure sustained economic growth while alleviating unenlployment. Automation in pursuit of productivity and economy tends to tUin machines less friendly to human beings. The infornlation infrastructure being build should provide human-fJiendly interfaces to the maxinlum possible extent. What everyone is looking for is cultural satisfaction and happiness. The information infrastructure can find a place in the history of civilization only when it is squarely geared to enhancing the cultural creativity of mankind and to preserving cultural identity of diversified communities. The progress of infornlation infrastructure and the success of societal development depend heavily on available human resources. The same information infrastructure is now providing a wonderful oppoltunity of interactive and pa11icipatory learning environment through ears and eyes. Human resources development should be given top priority for bringing a better future. 2 Short Biography Hiroshi Inose Hiroshi INOSE received BE and DE degrees in electrical engineering both from the University of Tokyo in 1948 and 1955 respectively.

'----------- -- MARCONI SYMPOSillM ruNE 1995 RADIO IN UNIVERSITY EDueAnON Erie A Ash Abstract The most dramatic feature ofthe radio era, which started just a century ago, is the extraordinary communication ranges \vhich have been achieved, extending right across the solar system. OU1' main hope ofdiscovering the existence ofintelligent life elsewhere in the universe Te.s on the knowledge that it is in. principle possible to signal across inter-stellar db1ances. Less celebrated is the usage ofradio for very short ranges, perhaps because in that role it is never the only mode ofcommunication that is available. Yet even here it can make a distinctive contnOution - inter alia, in the lecture theatre. The classical lecture remains, and for sound reasons, will.tOOllin a major modality ofthe teaching process in a university. The key problem stems from the filet that the lecturer has a task to perfoIDl- one which requires his total attention. The students too have a task to perform· but it is entirely passive. Should they cease to performit • should attention drift - no one will be aware ofthe fact, arguably not even the student. It is this highly asymmetric relationship between student and lecturer which undermines the effectiveness ofthe teaching process. The cure is to make the lecture theatre interactive· to give the students the opportunity and indeed obligation to react, in various ways, to the lecture as it progresses. The means to do so is to pro"\ide each student with an individual small radio unit. We will explore the motivation, the potential educational benefits~ and some ofthe technological problemswhic~ it turns out, are not wholly trivial.

Francesco Carassa SATELLITE COMMUNICATIONS: FROM GEO TO LEO's • . torical remarks on the experimental LEO sateIIi~ Telstar and Relay. LEO versus GEO: the problem of propagation delay. • Development of the global Intelsat system, based on GEO satellites and large earth statiuns: developing countries have been able to join the community of developed countries only by the construction of an earth station. . • Use of transparent traIisponders and antennas covering the entire region to be served: a solution wen adaptable to different applications, but inefficient in power and spectrum u h1 ; zati on. On the other band the use·of sophisticated multibeam transponders with on-board switching is more efficient in power and spectrum, but limited in flexibility. • Applications at tCgional~ trends to smaller eanh stations. In developing countries possibility of general applications; in developed countries, especially after the introduction of optical fibres in the terrestrialnetwo~ applications for which the satellite is particularly suited: one of such applications is the distribution and broadcasting of television programs. Only in this application the transparent transponder is maximally efficient in power and spectrum, thus leading to a simple solution which is effective and flexible. flexibility allows for instance the transition from analog to digital transmission without any change in the satellite. In addition the use of modem signal processing techniques leads to 5-6 fold gain in capacity thus drastically dropping the costs. • GEO satellite systems use one or very few satellites, in contrasts with terrestrial transmission systems which require many identical repeaters. Although doing everything with a single satellite in space simplifies the system configuration and operation~ the work of research and development is baldly separable from the phases of production and installation, thus significant system testing can be performed only after system completion. Moreover, especially with sophisticated satellites, a different satellite is generally required for each applications and the production is done on very few pieces. • In view of the increasing need of large communication capacities, it is imperative to try to use centimeter and millimeter waves. Summaxy of propagation characteristics; conditions under which increase of rain attenuation with frequency is compensated by the increase in antenna gain. Importance of JUL-14-1994 10:43 39 2 23993413 90% P.02 P.03 \ 11 using highly directive antennas~ possibly in the form of phase arrays. • LEO satellites: a key aspect of future satellite systems. Advantages in tenDs of reduced delay and increased efficiency. Problems of traffic handover which requires switching from a satellite to the following one. Fixed versus steering beams. Role of intersatellite links. • Use of LEO satellites with mobile and fixed personal tenninals. Level of integration with the terrestrial networlt. • Importance of redistributing the spectrwn for satellite communications in the centimeter and millimeter wavelength region. • LEO systems can offer Communication services in places where they are not offered by the terrestrial netwotk; and it is just in such places that communication is a fundamental need from a social point of view. • LEO satellite systems have a global coverage and thus are able to offer global ~ returning to the original. spirit of satellite communications. In the origins a global system was set up to which any country, developed or developing, could connect by the construction of a (large) earth station; with LEO, in this new era of personalization of communications, we are able to set up a global system to which any individual needing to improve his life by communications and having no connection with the terrestrial system can obtain service by the simple construction ofa (small) earth station. • In a LEO system a large number of identical satellites will be used and the situation previously mentioned concerning research~ development, production and installation made more clear and easier. Production costs will be reduced.

Schaw!ow, Stanford University 916196582500 P.03 The discovery of quantum mechanics, largely inspired by optical spectra, eventually led to lasers but it took over thirty years. Radio and electronic techniques, developed for communications, provided an essential intermediate step, for radio photons were small but so numerous that they could make large changes in populations of at6mi.c or molecular .. energy ·;Levels. Thus population inversion, and so amplification by stimulated emission became thinkable and then possible, first through Charles Townes' MASER and then for lasers. Communication is incomplete unless it originates from a person and reaches another person. But some people have physical handicaps which may be as subtle as those for persons who have suffered strokes or ·autism. Some of these people have dyspraxia, or inability to initiate the motions of speech or typing, but they may be helped by facilitated communication. The interaction is complex and not well understood, but can sometimes be remarkably effective in permitting people with severe handicaps to communicate. T TRL P.03 ... .

I would like to present a paper, as listed In the list of "Possible Themes", with the title: "Evolution of Data Networks; from ARPANET to INTERNETto the Information Superhlgh way'\ I see this as focusIng on the technology aspects of this development. The abstract 18: EVOLUTION OF DATA NElWORKS; FROM ARPANET TO INTERNET TO INFORMATION SUPERHIGHWAY Ttle ARPANET came to life In September 1969 when the first node of the ARPANET was Installed at UCLA. This IntroductIon of packet switching was a revolution In data net working and ushered In a new era of telecommunications. The ARPANET evolved through. number of technology drives. leadIng to todayJs enormously successful IN TERNET, a network of networks that spans the world and supports many millions of users. Events have Juxtaposed such that the commercial world Is now planning massive Investments In Information Infrastructure to provide major marketplaces for commerce and business, as well as' entert~lnment and sOopping. New technologies of wlreleas communications. nomadic computing and broadband communications are being de ployed. These developments and technologies wlll'be described In this presentation. Linda: , may want to change the abstract later, but I thought It would help you to get a copy of this early.

Schaw!ow, Stanford University The discovery of quantum mechanics, largely inspired by optical spectra, eventually led to lasers but it took over thirty years. Radio and electronic techniques, developed for communications, provided an essential intermediate step, for radio photons were small but so numerous that they could make large changes in populations of at6mic or molecular ..,ene~gy ,~evels. Thus population inversion, and so amplification by stimulated emission became thinkable and then possible, first through Charles Townes' MASER and then for lasers. Communication is incomplete unless it originates from a person and reaches another person. But some people have physical handicaps which may be as subtle as those for persons who have suffered strokes or ·autism. Some of these people have dyspraxia, or inability to initiate the motions of speech or typing, but they may be helped by facilitated communication. The interaction is complex and not well understood, but can sometimes be remarkably effective in permitting people with severe handicaps to communicate.

Paul Baran Marconi's early key 7,m patent (the conce-pt of tuning) addressed the challenge of allowing multiple transmitters to share the common radio spectrwn. Throughout the history of radio, coping with a very liolited spectrum was a guiding fact of life. Strict national and international regulation evolved to minimize interference between stations sharing the spectrum. S~ctrum ~fficiency has steadily increased over tinte llsing new technology deveJopments. But, such past developments tended to focus on making" best use of a smgle channel, and generally not of the combined interest of multiple entities sharing a commo.n spectrum. To do so r~quires shari.ng information and following complex algorithms to take advantage of the statistics of usage. What y\ras once hard. to do has now become ea8Y. A significant potential increase in spectrum efficiency could be obtained in the UHF band by the application of distributed intelligence in both rer.~ivers and transmitters using low-cost microprocessors. Instead of optimizing single links, multiple transmitters and receivers automatically exchange information about the multiplicity of users to better shart the spectrum. Such an approach could significantLy increase the potential 1'\umber of users in comparison to the use of preassigned frequencies. JU.S~ as we leamed that tight centralized governln~ntal control.is not the most efflClent way to run a modern economy, so centrahz~d contraIlS a far from optimum in assigning spectrum resources in the interest of the greatest number of users. The preferred direction of development in many "ways follows the example of the Internet, a distributed network where .most decisions are nlad~ locally. This differs from the earlier era w here network paths tended to be pre determined. The relevant analogy is that of a free economy versus it highly centralized economy. The chief barrier to this direction of development is the legacy of teletommunication regulatory policies inherited from an earlit'r era. 2 JAN-20-1995 15: 10 FROM 1'1ARCON I I NT' L FELLOWSH I P TO 916196582500 P.04 Date: 20..01 ..95 To: From: Name C(Jmp4 1fY Fax Pa,es Tune: 15.00 THE ORGANIZING OOMMITTEE.

The convergence of computers and communications and the emergence of a major market for wireless personal communications, among other megatrends, will place heavy reliance on the continuing progress of semiconductor teehnolOlY. This paper will briefly review the aitica1 role that semiconductor technology has played in the acceleration of telecommunications we have witnessed, and will also describe how semiconductor-based memories, microprocessor, digital signal processors, image processors, programmable logic and neural netWorks will evolve to impact the future of telecommunications.

Vuginia 22091 The ARPANET wu a research projc:a and an experiment which demonstrated the concept of packet switching, provided simple ways to link heterogeneous computers and served as an economic means of linking computer science researchers m tbe U.S. The Intemet architecture build& upon this earlier development and provides a framework in whidl different networks and their associated computers can in1erwork. The Internet itself provides a global networking infrastruC1l1re including, at present, tens of thousands of networb and millions of computers able to comrmoieate with each other. Various nations are also ccmsidc:ring the developmentof national information iIlfrasttuetwe8. Initial slepS have been taken to implement them in ce1t8in cases and the Internet is playing a key role in facilitating some of theae new developmems. The challenge of the future will be to formulate aDd build a consensus on the notion ofa Global Infonnation Infrastruet\R and • meaDS for realizing its potential.
