CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
----------------------


The IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Parallel Processing
invites engineers and scientists from around the world to participate
in the 10th International Parallel Processing Symposium. Established
to advance knowledge in all areas of parallel processing and related
technologies, the symposium is the committee's primary event for
presenting the most recent research and development findings. In its
10th year, the now standard IPPS events include contributed technical
papers, keynote speeches and panels, workshops and tutorials, and an
industrial track and commercial exhibits.


WORKSHOPS: Workshops offer the opportunity for in-depth exploration of
selected topics. Those already planned for next year are listed
below. However, proposals for workshops to address other topics in
the field are encouraged. To organize a workshop, send a one page
proposal to the Symposium Chair by September 29, 1995. To participate
in an already planned workshop, contact organizer listed below:

INDUSTRIAL TRACK/COMMERCIAL EXHIBITS: These paired activities give
manufacturers of commercial products the opportunity to both explain
and demonstrate their wares. The Industrial Track consists of
original technical papers authored and presented by representatives
from various companies (one paper per company). Topics of interest
for papers include but are not limited to descriptions, comparisons,
or evaluations of the design, implementation, or performance of an
existing commercial system. Commercial Exhibits allow vendors to
display their products in an informal "walk-up and talk" setting.
Companies are encouraged to participate in both of these events. For
more details, contact the Industrial-Commercial Chair by October 31,
1995.

To submit an original research paper, send to the Program Chair six
hard copies of your complete manuscript (not to exceed 25 double-
spaced pages of text including references, figures, tables, etc. and
using 12 point type on 8.5 x 11 inch pages). Be sure to include
postal and e-mail addresses and vox and fax numbers. All manuscripts
will be reviewed. Manuscripts must be received by September 20, 1995.
Submissions received after that or exceeding the length limit may be
returned and not considered. Notification of review decisions will be
mailed by December 20, 1995. Camera-ready papers are due January 23,
1996. Proceedings will be available at the Symposium. Fax or
electronic submissions will not be considered.
