CFP: Minitrack on "Optimization in Parallelizing Compilers"

                                      CALL FOR PAPERS -- FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT




                                                                  Minitrack on
                                OPTIMIZATION IN PARALLELIZING COMPILERS




    Papers are solicited for the Software Technology mini-track on "Optimization
    in Parallelizing Compilers" at the 29th Hawaii International Conference on
    System Sciences, HICSS-29, Maui, Hawaii - January 3-6, 1996. HICSS-29 is
    sponsored by IEEE Computer Society and the University of Hawaii. Experts
    in the field willing to act as referees are also sought.


    The papers selected for presentation will appear in the Conference
    Proceedings, which will be published by the IEEE Computer Society. After
    the conference, the extended versions of the accepted papers will be
    considered for a journal publication in a special issue of "Scientific
    Programming".


    THEME
    =====
    The minitrack will focus on the current research in compiler optimizations
    which exploit various architectural developments that have taken place in
    recent years. We invite papers that may be theoretical, conceptual, tutorial,
    or descriptive in nature in this area.


    TOPICS OF INTEREST:
    ===================
    The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
          - task creation and scheduling in multithreaded multiprocessors
          - cache performance optimization and software prefetching
          - communication performance prediction and optimization for regular
              and irregular parallel computation
          - compile and run time support for task parallelism
          - automatic task definition and data distribution
          - loop transformation theory
          - program partitioning


    PAPER SUBMISSIONS:
    ==================
    Manuscripts should be 22-25 typewritten, double-spaced pages in length.
    Papers must not have been previously presented or published, nor currently
    submitted for journal publication. Each manuscript will be subjected to a
    rigorous refereeing process involving at least five reviewers. Manuscripts
    should have a title page that includes the title of the paper, full name(s)
    of author(s), affiliation(s), complete postal and electronic mail addresses,
    telephone and FAX numbers, and a 300-word abstract of the paper. Abstracts
    and manuscripts should be submitted to one of the minitrack co-ordinators
    at the following addresses:
