The globalization of the Internet, satellite-based Internet Protocol
multicasting, and strategies for dealing with Internet  address allocation
are just three of the subjects discussed by  leading Internet developers
on four new audiotapes we just released. 

"Notable Speeches of the Information Age, John Perry Barlow"
              USENIX Conference Keynote Address
             January 17, 1994; San Francisco, CA
        Duration: 90 minutes, ISBN: 1-56592-992-6, $9.95 (US)

John Perry Barlow is a retired Wyoming cattle rancher, a  lyricist since
1971 for the Grateful Dead who holds a degree in  comparative religion
from Wesleyan University. In 1990, Barlow  co-founded the Electronic
Frontier Foundation with Mitch Kapor,  and currently serves as chair of
its executive committee. 

In his keynote address to the Winter 1994 USENIX Conference, Barlow talks
of recent developments in the national information infrastructure,
telecommunications regulation, cryptography, globalization of the
Internet, intellectual property, and the settlement  of Cyberspace. This
talk explores the premise that "architecture is  politics"--that the
technology adopted for the coming "information  superhighway" will help to
determine what is carried on it. If the  electronic frontier of the
Internet is not to be replaced by electronic  strip malls controlled by
the old broadcast content providers, we need  to make sure that our
technological choices favor bi-directional  communication and open
platforms. Side A contains the keynote; Side B  contains a question and
answer period.

           THREE NEW "GEEK OF THE WEEK" AUDIOTAPES

                "Global Network Operations"
  Carl Malamud interviews Brian Carpenter, Bernhard Stockman,
               Mike O'Dell, and Geoff Huston
      Duration: 2 hours, ISBN: 1-56592-993-4, $16.95 (US)

What does it take to actually run a network? In these four  interviews,
Carl Malamud explores some of the technical and operational  issues faced
by Internet service providers around the world.

Brian Carpenter, director for networking at CERN, discusses  how he deals
with issues such as the OSI and DECnet Phase V protocols  and his views on
the future of the Internet.  Bernhard Stockman is one  of the founders and
the technical manager of the European Backbone (EBONE).  Mike O'Dell is
Vice President for Research at UUNET Technologies.  Geoff  Huston, the
director of the Australian Academic Research Network (AARNET), talks about
how networking in Australia has flourished despite  astronomically high
rates for long-distance lines.

                   "Mobile IP Networking"
       Carl Malamud interviews Phil Karn and Jun Murai
         Duration: 1 hour, ISBN: 1-56592-994-2, $9.95 (US)

As portable computers become more common, the Internet Protocol  will need
to change to support mobile computing. On this tape, Carl Malamud 
interviews Phil Karn, father of the KA9Q publicly available implementation
 of TCP/IP for DOS (which has also been used as the basis for the software
 in many commercial Internet routers). KA9Q was originally developed  to
allow "packet radio," that is, TCP/IP over ham radio bands. Phil's current
 research focus is on commercial applications of wireless data
communications.

Jun Murai is one of the most distinguished researchers in the  Internet
community. Murai is a professor at Keio University and the founder  of the
Japanese WIDE Internet. Murai talks about his research projects,  which
range from satellite-based IP multicasting to a massive testbed  for
mobile computing at the Fujisawa campus of Keio University.

            "The Future of the Internet Protocol"
Carl Malamud interviews Steve Deering, Bob Braden, Christian Huitema,  Bob
Hinden, Peter Ford, Steve Casner, Bernhard Stockman, and Noel Chiappa
         Duration: 4 hours, ISBN: 1-56592-996-9, $24.95

The explosion of interest in the Internet is stressing what  was originally
designed as a research and education network. The sheer  number of users
is requiring new strategies for Internet address  allocation; multimedia
applications are requiring greater bandwidth  and strategies such as
"resource reservation" to provide synchronous  end-to-end service.

In this series of eight interviews, Carl Malamud talks to  researchers who
are working to define how the underlying technology of the Internet will
need to evolve in order to meet the demands of the next five to ten
years.
