Hard copies of the following, along with related materials, are being mailed to former participants in the SIGMOD research exhibits program and other interested parties: We invite participants in the exhibition of Research Proto- types and Products (RP/P) at SIGMOD '89, the ACM Conference on the Management of Data, to be held in Portland, Oregon May 31 - June 2, 1989. The 1989 RP/P exhibit will have the theme of "User Interfaces to Database Systems", although we welcome any research prototype or product which has some- thing new and significant to offer the SIGMOD community. The RP/P exhibit will be open from 9AM Thursday June 1 to noon on Friday June 2. The RP/P exhibit space will be available for setup by 2PM Wednesday May 31. We expect the organization of the RP/P exhibit will be similar to what Mike Carey did at SIGMOD '88. However, we expect to allo- cate significantly more space this year to the RP/P exhibit, so that in addition to the scheduled 30 minute presentations we hope to have unlimited unstructured demos for those who bring their own hardware. This will depend mainly on the number of applicants. To register for participation in the RP/P exhibit, please fill out the following registration form. If you have any questions regarding the RP/P exhibit please contact us at one of these addresses or phone numbers below. We request that you attach a short description of your product/prototype. In case of space constraints we will use these statements to select participants. Deadline for registration for this exhibit is February 15, 1989 if you want to be listed on the program. However, we will try to accommodate even last-minute entries to the RP/P exhibit.
