| -------------              | The  purpose  of  this  symposium  is  to bring 
| Krithi Ramamritham, USA    | together  researchers and developers  from aca-
|                            | demia, industry, and government to advance  the
| Program Chairs             | science and technology in  real-time computing.
| --------------             | Papers  on  all  aspects  of  real-time  compu-
| Alan Burns, UK             | ting are  sought, including  operating  systems
| Yann-Hang Lee, USA         | and  scheduling,  fault-tolerance,   databases, 
|                            | programming  languages,   tools,  communication 
| Treasurers                 | networks, architectures,  performance modeling, 
| ----------                 | formal methods, case studies, and applications.
| Walt Heimerdinger, USA     | Of particular interests  are reports describing 
| Ettore Ricciardi, Italy    | practical experiences  and experimental results
|                            | based on system building efforts, and real-time 
| Publicity Chairs           | issues in applications such as avionics, multi-
| ----------------           | media, robotics,  automated process control and
| Azer Bestavros, USA        | manufacturing.
| Ken Tindell, Sweden        |

| Industrial Chairs          | ----------- 
| -----------------          | Papers should describe original work, and be 20 
| Michelle Hughe, USA        | double-spaced  pages (5,000 words)  or less  in 
| Christian Koza, Austria    | length. Synopses (5 double-spaced pages or less 
|                            | in length)  of real-time applications,  experi-
| Local Arrangements         | mental results and practical experiences in the 
| ------------------         | design and development of real-time systems are
| Giorgio Buttazzo, Italy    | also  invited.  Synopses should  contain enough
| Ettore Ricciardi, Italy    | information for the program committee to under-
|                            | stand the scope of the project and evaluate the 
| Ex-Officio                 | novelty of the problem or approach. All accept-
