Workshop on Advances in Parallel and Distributed Systems (APADS)
Held in Conjunction with the
IEEE Symposium on Reliable Distributed Systems
October 20-23, 1998
West Lafayette, Indiana, USA


The 1-day workshop will focus on parallel and distributed computing and
systems viewed from the three perspectives of software systems,
architecture and networking, and algorithms and applications.
APADS will bring together leading researchers and developers in these
areas and will strive toward setting future research directions.
The meeting will emphasize both design and analysis of parallel and
distributed systems and their scientific, engineering, and commercial
applications.


We invite contributions in all areas of parallel and distributed systems,
including especially:


- Parallel/Distributed Algorithms
- Software Tools and Environments for Parallel Systems
- Heterogeneous Computing
- Network-based Computing
- Embedded Systems
- Networks and Interconnection Networks
- Global Communication and Internetworking
- Memory Systems and Management
- I/O in Parallel Systems
- Standards for Portability and Interoperability
- Experimental Evaluation of Existing Systems and Prototypes
- Parallel/Distributed applications
- Data Mining
- Digital Libraries
- Mobile Computing
- Reliability and Fault-tolerance
- Multimedia and Video Conferencing


The program committee solicits abstracts of up to 5 pages for presentations on
the above and related topics. Full versions of accepted papers will
appear in the workshop proceedings.


The program committee also solicits panel proposals detailing topics
of discussion and 3-6 suggested panel members.


Eight paper copies of the abstract are due by April 25, 1998
to the program chair:
Professor Susanne E. Hambrusch
