SAC '94
=======


SAC '94 is the annual conference of the ACM Special Interest Group on
Applied Computing (SIGAPP). For the past eight years, SAC's have been a
primary forum for applied computing practitioners and researchers. Again
this year, SAC '94 will be held in conjunction with the 1994 ACM Computer
Science Conference in Phoenix. Papers in all areas of applied computing
are solicited. Proposals for tutorials and panels are also encouraged.




Special Track on Programming Languages
======================================


A special track on programming languages will be held at SAC '94. It will
be a forum for engineers, researchers and practitioners throughout the
world to share technical ideas and experiences relating to implementation
and application of programming languages. Original papers and tutorial
(half or full day) and panel proposals are invited in all areas of
programming language technology. Major topics of interest include but are
not limited to the following:


AI Languages Automatic Parallelization
Automatic Programming Compiling Techniques
Database Programming Languages Formal Semantics
Functional Programming Logic Programming
Meta and Higher-order Programming Object-Oriented Programming
Programming Languages for Specification Languages
          Parallel/Distributed Execution




GUIDELINES FOR SUBMISSION
=========================


Original papers from the above-mentioned areas will be considered.
Accepted articles will be published in the SAC '94 Conference Proceedings
to be published by the ACM Press. Expanded versions of selected papers
will be considered for publication in the ACM/SIGAPP quarterly APPLIED
COMPUTING REVIEW.


In order to facilitate the blind external review process, submission
guidelines must be strictly adhered to:


* Submit 6 copies of original manuscripts to the SAC '94 Programming
        Languages Track Chair at the address below.


* Author name(s) and address(es) are NOT to appear in the body of the
