In 1992, the CEC agreed to finance a one-year project called "Piloting of Multimedia Integrated Services for European Researchers (MICE)". This paper outlines the background, purpose and aims of the project. The technical work required to interconnect existing facilities, and issues relating to influencing factors - such as standards and infrastructure - are discussed in detail. In conclusion, we provide an outlook on the future of multimedia conferencing and highlights some of the next steps to be taken.
