                          Call for papers, APL 87
                           May 10 - May 14, 1987
                               Dallas, Texas

                            "APL in Transition"

Five years ago the primary operating environment of an APL system was a large,
timeshared mainframe computer. Since then, the personal computer has become
a significant factor. More importantly, other languages and operating
environments have begun to offer facilities that until recently were the sole
province of APL. Features such as array handling and interactive debugging
facilities are being found in both interpretive and compiled languages. This
new competition has caused improvements in APL's environments. The conference
will focus on this maturing process and will contemplate possible futures.

There will be three main themes:
	APL as an Application Development System,
	APL and its environment,
	Future Developments in APL
Plus two minor themes:
	Industry Specific Papers,
	Graphics

Deadlines:
	 Nov 15, 1986: Completed papers (four copies, in English) due to
		       Program Chairman for blind refereeing.
	March 1, 1987: Camera-ready copy of papers to be included in
		       Proceedings.

Send responses to the Program Chairman or to APL87 via IPSA or STSC
