Morning Tutorial:

Intellectual Property Law as Applied to the Computer and Electronics Industries

Margaret Jane Radin
William Benjamin Scott & Luna M. Scott Professor of Law
Stanford Law School

The tutorial will outline the basics of the traditional forms of legal
protection of intellectual property (patents, trademarks, copyrights and
trade secrets) and describe some of the issues posed by developments in
information technology and the global networked environment.  We will
consider how intellectual property protection is established, how it
functions in practice, and what happens when intellectual property rights
are infringed.  We will look at not only the different principles of each
form of protection, but also how their boundaries are delineated, and where
those boundaries are blurred  (e.g. copyright vs. patenting of software.)
We will also consider how economic factors relate to the extent of
intellectual property protection, and we will consider the significance of
non-property (the public domain) for the competitive marketplace and for
future invention.

Afternoon Tutorial

Fast CPUs Are Good ... but Fast I/O is Better

Speaker: Silicon Graphics Peripherals Team

Fast microprocessors need large storage and fast I/O.  This tutorial
will include overviews of various I/O technologies, how they fit togehter,
and where they seem to be going, including peripheral connections, disks,
removables, and performance issues.
    1) Overview of the various technologies, how they fit together,
        and where they are going.
    2) Survey of peripheral connections, e.g. SCSI, FibreChannel, 1394
    3) Disk technologies
	History, specifications, technologies, capacities, bandwidths,
latencies
	Fixed and removables
	Near-term futures
    4) CDROMs, DVD, etc
    5) Tapes
    6) Real problems or "your mileage may vary"
	Peak numbers vs. real numbers
	real case studies of extreme I/O demands
