Current email-control mechanisms, though highly effective, are prone to dropping desirable messages, This can be attributed to their coarseness in filtering out undesirable messages from desirable ones. As a result policies to control undesirable messages are often overly permissive. To allow policies to be more restrictive, the transmission mechanism must be made aware of the ways to document a message so that it is acceptable downstream, thus giving the senders a chance of meeting those requirements, In this work, we design a scheme to enable rejected, but desirable messages to be upgraded in a way that they meet downstream requirements. We call this process 'message refinement'. This in turn allows downstream principals to express and enforce precise requirements as the risk of losing desirable messages is minimized. To apply this scheme uniformly to any email-control mechanism, we provide a flexible and extensible policy language to express message acceptance preferences. We use a constraint logic programming approach to specifying and evaluating these policies and show that their evaluation can be accomplished in PTIME. This supports our belief that this technique can be practically applied. Copyright 2005 ACM.

For generations, the academic community has relied on peer review as a way of encouraging scholarship and enhancing the knowledge base. Peer review has been widely used in the classroom since at least the 1970s, with hundreds of papers on its use in diverse academic fields appearing in the literature (for a comprehensive survey, see [1]). Its use appears to be on the upswing, given the current interest in active learning and teamwork. In computerscience, peer review seems to have very broad application. It can be used to evaluate the contributions of various members to a project team;it can be used for design documents and code reviews, in writing assignments, and in capstone project courses. The experience of the panelists is illustrative of the wide range of peer-review practices. This panel will serve to introduce the audience to some of these applications. Since many computer-science instructors have experimented with peer review, we are anxious to have them share their experiences during the open discussion period.

Almost all major news and professional publications document IT Offshoring & Outsourcing (O&O), which has caused job losses in the US and drops in computerscience/informationscience (CS/IS) enrollment. Public opinion and understanding of O&o has several misconception such as non availability of onshore jobs in the CS/IT industry. To increase CS/IS enrollments students, parents, and administrators should be educated about the realities of IT job market. Various ways should be devised to increase student retention without decreasing standards, through more effective pedagogy and better student support.
