The Academic Network Workshop will bring together key individuals from countries around the world who are involved in designing, implementing, or funding networking facilities on a national or international scale for the academic community. It provides a forum for information exchange concerning national and international networking projects.

The Academic Network Workshop will take place immediatiely before the 9th International Conference on Computer Communication which will be held in Tel Aviv, Israel, from October 30 to November 4.
