High Performance Distributed Systems:

Design, Implementation, Applications
Software Technology Track of 29th Hawaii Int'l Conf. on System Sciences
HICSS-29, Maui, Hawaii, January 3-6, 1996

The full Call For Papers and Referees is available.

This year, the Software Technology Track of HICSS-29 will focus on a broad selection of topics in the area of High Performance Distributed Systems: Design, Implementation, and Applications. This particular solicitation for the Software Track will provide a forum to discuss new advances in theory, design, implementation, use, application, and performance evaluation of high performance distributed systems. We invite papers that may be theoretical, conceptual, tutorial, or descriptive in nature. Those papers selected for presentation will appear in the Conference Proceedings, published by the IEEE CS. A collection of the accepted papers will be considered for inclusion in a separately bound volume, to be determined at a later time.

1995 Deadlines

• A 300-word abstract by March 15
• Feedback to author on abstract by April 3
• Eight copies of the manuscript by June 1
• Notification of accepted papers by August 31
• Camera-ready copies of accepted manuscripts are due by October 2

Submissions See the full version for submission requirements. Specific topics are identified within the following eight Minitracks:

1. Approaches to persistency in distributed systems
2. High speed networks
3. Parallel and distributed operating systems
4. Optimization in parallelizing compilers
5. Heterogeneous processing
6. Parallel and distributed simulation
7. Distributed real-time systems
8. Partitioning and scheduling

Submissions must be made to one of the Minitrack Coordinators (names and addresses in the full version), according to their areas. Persons interested in refereeing should contact the Minitrack Coordinators.
