SAC '96
=======


Over the past ten years, the ACM Symposium on Applied Computing has become a
primary forum for applied computer scientists and application developers from
around the world to interact and present their work. SAC '96 is sponsored by
the ACM Special Interest Groups SIGAda, SIGAPP, SIGBIO, SIGCUE, and SIGICE.
Authors are invited to contribute original papers in all areas of experimental
computing and application development for the technical sessions.

PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES TRACK
===========================


A special track on programming languages will be held at SAC '96. 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. This in-
cludes three categories of submissions: 1) original and unpublished research;
2) reports of innovative computing applications in the arts, sciences, engi-
neering, business, government, education and industry; and 3) reports of
successful technology transfer to new problem domains. Each category of sub-
missions will be reviewed by peer groups appropriate to that category.
Accepted papers in all categories will be published in the symposium proceed-
ings. Expanded versions of selected papers from all categories will be con-
sidered for publication in the ACM/SIGAPP quarterly Applied Computing Review
or one of the other participating SIGs' publications.


Submission guidelines must be strictly followed:


* Submit six (6) copies of original manuscripts to the following SAC '96
        Programming Languages Track Co-Chair.
