WWW Conference '94 -- HPCC/NLM Remote Conference Site


The National Coordination Office (NCO) for High Performance Computing and Communications (HPCC) and the National Library of Medicine (NLM) are pleased to be providing a remote site which will be receiving the multicasted audio and video from the Second International World-Wide Web Conference being held in Chicago, on 18-20 October 1994. Agendas are available for both the full conference, and only the multicasted sessions. Separate agendas are also available for each day of the conference.

IMPORTANT: Only the multicasts of the main Conference, on Tuesday 18 October and Wednesday 19 October, will be carried at this site. (Developers Day on 20 October is being multicasted, but not received at the NLM remote site).

If you are interested in attending this remote site, please read the description of the limitations of multicasting technology to be certain that you are comfortable with the limitations of this experimental technology. Audio can be sent from the NLM site to the main conference in Chicago, and NLM participants will be encouraged to participate by asking questions during the question periods.
