                                                                  (IOPADS '99)


                                          http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/iopads


in conjunction with FCRC '99
                            ACM 1999 Federated Computing Research Conference
                                                          Atlanta, Georgia
                                                                May 5, 1999


Sponsors: ACM SIGACT, SIGARCH, SIGMETRICS, and SIGOPS
                    and in cooperation with ACM SIGPLAN


IOPADS is a venue for researchers investigating all aspects of storage-related
I/O in parallel and distributed systems, including algorithms, applications,
architecture, and system software. Although I/O-related papers appear in
many conferences, IOPADS gathers interested I/O researchers from all areas
of computer science, encouraging cross-disciplinary interaction.


IOPADS solicits research papers that focus on storage-related I/O in
high-performance parallel and distributed systems, emphasizing parallel or
distributed applications. Relevant topics include:


Experimental I/O characterization
Design and analysis of I/O-intensive applications
Parallel file system design and analysis
Real-time and multimedia I/O
Theory and implementation of parallel I/O algorithms
I/O architecture design and evaluation
Storage device design and analysis
Language and compiler support
Run-time libraries
Database and information systems
Data security and authentication


Papers submitted to IOPADS must be unpublished and must not be submitted
for publication elsewhere. The manuscript should be written in English,
at most twelve pages long (including figures, tables, and excluding
references), single- or double-spaced, using an 11-point font. Electronic
submission of Postscript is required; detailed submission instructions are
on the WWW site. All submissions must arrive by 6 PM Central Time on
October 16, 1998. Decisions will be announced by January 8, 1999. Accepted
papers will appear in the IOPADS proceedings, to be published by ACM.
