The full version of this Call for Papers is available.
In 1996 IOPADS graduates from an informal workshop held in conjunction with IPPS to a symposium format to be co-located with many others at FCRC'96. The aim of IOPADS has always been to bring together researchers in all aspects of parallel I/O, which we broadly place into five categories: architecture, algorithms, applications, file and operating systems, and compilers and runtime systems. It is our opinion that the problems of parallel I/O are most effectively addressed by investigating all these areas rather than working in each area in isolation. Although I/O-related papers appear in many other conferences, the value of IOPADS is in gathering interested researchers from all these areas of computer science, encouraging interdisciplinary interaction, rather than working in isolation.
Submissions
Papers submitted to IOPADS must be unpublished and must not submitted for publication elsewhere. The manuscript should be at most 20 8.5x11 or A4 pages long (including figures, tables, references, but excluding the page withheld from reviewers), typeset with a 10-point font on 20-point spacing, i.e., double spaced. Electronic submission (of PostScript) is strongly encouraged (details available on the Web page below, or contact the Program Chair). For hard-copy submission, send 7 copies of the paper (preferably double-sided) to the Program Chair.
Important Dates
All submissions, electronic or hard copy, must arrive by 6pm Eastern Time on October 17, 1995. Decisions will be announced by December 22, 1995.
