                           Call For Papers

                 SUPERCOMPUTER APPLICATIONS SYMPOSIUM

                    October 31 - November 1, 1984
                          West Lafayette, IN

                           Co-sponsored by:
                  Purdue University Computing Center
           Purdue Center for Parallel and Vector Computing
                             Control Data


For the past two years, Control Data has co-sponsored an annual
applications symposium at one of its CYBER 205 customer sites. At
Colorado State University in 1982 and at Goddard Space Flight Center
in 1983, scientists, mathematicians, and engineers exchanged ideas on
methods and techniques for applying the CYBER 205 vector processor to
the solution of important computational problems. This year at Purdue
University the symposium will include papers describing parallel
processing methods using the CYBERPLUS multiple parallel processor.

Topics for papers include all aspects, both theoretical and applied,
of vector and parallel processing techniques using the CYBER 205 or
the CYBERPLUS. Theoretical papers should describe advances in general
numerical methods to take advantage of these two architectures.
Applied papers should describe the use of particular features of these
architectures to solve specific problems. All papers should be
addressed to an interdisciplinary audience with enough background
information to explain the topic to a general scientific audience.

Papers will be grouped in four general areas:

*    Numerical Methods and Software Development

*    Computational Fluid Dynamics and Weather

*    Computational Physics and Chemistry

*    Engineering and Petroleum Applications

Authors wishing to present a paper should submit five copies of a
two-page abstract to one of the conference organizers by June 29,
1984. Referees will evaluate the abstracts, and the conference
organizers will announce papers accepted for presentation around
August 1, 1984. Authors will be required to provide a full manuscript
at the beginning of the conference for publication in the conference
proceedings.

What is a CYBERPLUS? Do they presently exist? Where are they?
