Dear Pierluigi:

(1) Many thanks for your msg (ATTACHMENT I).

(2) Upon your request, I am distributing the flyer of your conference “GLS’
04 GRID Learning Services” to be held in Maceio, Brazil on August 30th 2004.


  I am sorry I could not distribute it much earlier because of a malfunction
of our “gu-l” list serve.


Dear E-Colleagues:

(3) This conference sounds very interesting, since;


    1.. The principle of Internet is “sharing,”
    2.. The principle of GRID is “cooperation” and “collaboration,”
    3.. The use of Internet is inherently “global.”


Applying them together to learning service is, in a sense, to foster “global
peace.”

Dear Dorothy:

(4) Many thanks for your msg (ATTACHMENT II), in response to my previous
distribution of;


  (05/30/04-A) Transformation of Industrial Age to Knowledge Age; Creation
of Angkor Univ. and GUS/Cambodia
  Which can now be retrieved at;
  http://www.friends-partners.org/pipermail/gu-new/2004q2/000001.html


(5) Pierluigi is now trying to contact with his friends at;


    1.. National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) of the
University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, and
    2.. National Science Foundation


This is to raise funds for making our following GCEPG project as a powerful
demonstration of his ELeGI project;


  "Globally Collaborative Environmental Peace Gaming (GCEPG)"

(6) “Preventive Environmental Strategies” project for youngsters of the
Global Environmental Youth Convention 2004 sounds very interesting.

Our GCEPG project may just suite well for them — particularly with the use
of System Dynamics methodology for fostering their rational thinking and
critical analysis capabilities — see the following web for the methodology
created by Prof. Jay W. Forrester of MIT (my prof.);


  Articles on System Dynamics by Prof. Jay W. Forrester

ester%27s%20papers/Articles_of_Forrester.html


At an appropriate stage of our development, we may ask you to introduce us
to them and The IIIEE (International Institute for Industrial Environmental
Economics).


  Dear Pierluigi:

  Pls keep this in your mind, especially when you submit your grant
applications to NCSA and/or NSF.


Keep in touch.

Best, Tak
