This Workshop was held in preparation for a formal establishment of the Center for Information Protection (CIP), which will be set up as a National Science Foundation (NSF) Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC). This Center will be a partnership between Industry, Academia, and the Government to

It will leverage the I/UCRC model, which has an established track-record of highly successful partnerships between industry and academia for the past 25 years. About 80 such centers have been established in diverse areas of engineering, with about 100 university and 700 industry members, including many of the country's biggest corporations.

Problems playing RealAudio?

You need the (free) Real Player to play the recordings of presentations. You can view and listen to the recordings as follows:

Note that you cannot save the presentation to a local disk. The recording is in many different files -- may be hundreds per presentation! Saving just the top level file, which contains 4 lines, is not going to help.
