[802SEC] Fwd: Re: Norm Abramson-tutorial in SFO?



Fellow ECers-

Here is the Art Astrin/Bob Heile suggestion for a tutorial.
I support this.
I think it would be fun, relevant and interesting.

Hi Bob,

Norm Abramson, the inventor of Aloha, has tentatively agreed to give a talk to 802 about inventing the Aloha net. He was professor in University of Hawaii (1968-94) and influenced Bob Metcalfe's invention of Ethernet. He lives in San Francisco.

Would you approve this for a San Francisco tutorial time slot?
