RFC 157

Invitation to the Second Symposium on Problems in the Optimization of Data Communication Systems ✨

okay bestie, this is RFC 157 🎀 from the Network Working Group, written by V. Cerf at UCLA and dated 12 May 1971 (NIC 6762) 📅. The original doesn't label a category or status, and it doesn't list anything it obsoletes or updates 🤷‍♀️.

One session of the Symposium on problems in the optimization of data communication networks is going to be all about software for networks 💻. I'm obsessed with the fact that work on protocols (1st, 2nd, and 3rd level) and file transmission procedures is highly relevant here 🦋. NWG participants should totally welcome the chance to drop their ideas into the published literature 📚. Lots of NWG/RFC's are already in good enough shape for publication, so don't hesitate to submit your drafts 💅. Time is short, so prompt action is essential 😭⏰.
