Call for Papers - I/O in Parallel Systems

                                    CALL FOR PAPERS
    WORKSHOP ON INPUT/OUTPUT IN PARALLEL COMPUTER SYSTEMS


                                    to be held at
  International Parallel Processing Symposium (IPPS '93)




                              in cooperation with
      IEEE Technical Committee on Parallel Processing
            Newport Beach, California, April 13, 1993
                          PAPERS DUE: JAN 31, 1993




SYMPOSIUM: IPPS '93 will be held April 13-16, 1993 at the Newport Beach
Marriott Hotel and Tennis Club, Newport Beach, California. The symposium
is sponsored by IEEE Computer Society and is held in cooperation with ACM
SIGARCH. IPPS '93 is a forum for engineers and scientists from around the
world to present the latest research findings in all aspects of parallel
and distributed processing.


WORKSHOP: The workshop will be held on the first day of the symposium
(April 13, 1993). The workshop will focus on the I/O bottleneck facing
parallel computer systems for many important applications such as
multimedia information systems and volume visualization. Recognition of
the importance of this problem has been growing steadily, and proposed
solutions include approaches based upon new hardware, architecture,
systems software and algorithms. The workshop will bring together
researchers in order to foster further research on these approaches and
their integration into comprehensive systems solutions.


Papers are invited demonstrating original unpublished research. Topics of
interest include, but are not limited to:


        High-speed storage and channels
        I/O interconnection architectures
        Concurrent file systems
        Compiler support for parallel I/O
        Scheduling algorithms and heuristics
        Data and resource allocation
        Application profiling and benchmarking
        Performance of I/O subsystems


SUBMITTING PAPERS: All papers will be reviewed. The first
page must include a 100-word abstract and the name,
address, telephone number and electronic mail address of
the author to whom correspondence is to be sent. The
manuscript should be at most 20 pages long (including
figures and references). Papers will be collected into a
proceedings and distributed at the workshop. Five copies
of the paper should be sent to one of the two addresses
below:
