>1. Budou mit "domaci" moznost ucastnit se prislusnych akci?


Co se tyce Wokshopu, tak ten je planoval pro  150 lidi z cca 70 zemi.
Z toho plyne, ze Ceska Republika muze vzhledem k tomu, ze se akce kona
u nas, dostat az 3 mista. Rozhodne o tom mezinarodni programovy vybor,
ktery bude take individulne posuzovat, kolik kazdemu ucastnikovi prispeje.
Pro tuzemske ucastniky bude poplatek nizsi o naklady za dopravu a ubytovani,
pokud jej nebude vyzadovat.

>2. Pokud ano, tak za jaky poplatek?

Ano, vyse poplatku viz vyse.

>3. Pokud ano a poplatek bude unosny (vysi a menou), kde se maji prihlasovat?

Zajemci at prosim vyplni zadost uvedenou nize a odeslou na adresu mezinarodniho
programoveho vyboru, ktera je tam uvedena. Prihlaste se prosim do konce
unora. Pocet prihlasek z jedne zeme muze ovlinit, kolik mist zeme dostane.

>In conjunction with the INET '94/JENC5 Conference, the Internet Society
>is sponsoring a Network Technology Workshop prior to the conference itself.
>The workshop will be held in Prague, Czech Republic, on the campus of the
>Czech Technical University (Ceske Vysoke Uceni Technicke) during June 5-11,
>1994.  The focus of the workshop will be upon assisting countries that are
>either not yet connected to the Internet or are in the process of
>developing and enhancing an initial national Internet.
>
>This workshop is an outgrowth of and builds upon a similar workshop, held
>at Stanford University, U.S.A. in August 1993, in conjunction with the INET
>'93 Conference.
>
>
>Goals
>-----
>
>The goals of the workshop are:
>
>1. To train a critical mass of trainer/professionals in network
>infrastructure, transport and services to be able to support an extension
>of meaningful Internet-related activities within the countries represented.
>
>2. To identify and share individual and institutional contacts as well as
>information sources that will assist the process of development, using
>international Internet connections.
>
>3. To build robust professional linkages between all participants in the
>programs so that the mentor-student and colleague-colleague relationships
>formed during the workshop and conferences will remain strong and of
>continuing usefulness well beyond the workshop and conference.
>
>4. To increase the level of cooperation among existing projects and
>activities for establishing data networks in developing countries.
>
>5. To train small groups of trainers from the same country or region who
>can replicate and extend such training in their own country or region.
>
>
>Program
>-------
>
>An intensive program of instruction is planned for each of four
>program tracks:
>
>1. DIAL-UP NETWORKING TECHNOLOGY - For network technicians and
>technical staff with some experience using personal computers
>(networking experience preferable but not required), focusing upon
>the establishment and operation of an initial Internet presence in a
>country and possibly initiating the deployment of a basic national
>network infrastructure in the country.
>
>2. TCP/IP NETWORKING TECHNOLOGY - For network technicians and technical
>staff, focusing upon the extension, management and operation of an initial
>national network infrastructure and its integration with the global
>Internet.
>
>3. NETWORK NAVIGATION AND SERVICES - For network information specialists
>and other user support staff, focusing upon how to use Internet
>connectivity to access network resources and information content and how to
>implement the network and client-server tool set for obtaining such access.
>
>4. NATIONAL NETWORK MANAGEMENT - For technical and administrative managers
>of national networks, focusing on current legal, economic, organizational
>and technical issues of national network establishment and management.
>
>
>All participants will engage in extensive hands-on training, either setting
>up a prototype network or using actual Internet resources or both, as
>appropriate, using facilities at the Czech Technical University.
>
>
>Place
>-----
>
>The workshop will be held at the Czech Technical University in Prague,
>Czech Republic. Participants will be housed in the Hotel Krystal, a
>conference hotel managed by the Czech Technological University, Czech
>University of Economics and Charles University. Convenient bus and taxi
>transportation is available to the hotel from the airport.
>
>Workshop sessions will take place in several facilities at the Czech
>Technical University, all within easy walking distance of one another.
>Participants will travel by bus or tram from the Hotel Krystal to the
>University campus, a journey of about 15 minutes.
>
>
>Working language
>----------------
