     Call For Papers and Referees
in
  High Performance Distributed Systems: Design, Implementation, and Applications
for the
Software Technology Track
of the
          29th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, HICSS-29
Maui, Hawaii - January 3-6, 1996
      *********************************************************************
This year, the Software Technology Track of HICSS-29 will focus on a broad
selection of topics in the area of High Performance Distributed Systems:
Design, Implementation, and Applications. This particular solicitation for
the Software Track will provide a forum to discuss new advances in theory,
design, implementation, use, application, and performance evaluation of high
performance distributed systems. We invite papers that may be theoretical,
conceptual, tutorial, or descriptive in nature. Those papers selected for
presentation will appear in the Conference Proceedings. HICSS-29 is sponsored
by the University of Hawaii.
The Conference Proceedings are published by the IEEE Computer Society. A
collection of the accepted papers will be considered for inclusion in a
separately bound volume to be determined (publisher and exact dates of
publication) at a later time.
