                  Measurement and Modeling of Computer Systems
                                        
                                May 11-14, 1987
                             Banff, Alberta, Canada
  
  ``How does one make effective use of a computer architecture exhibiting 
    massive parallelism?  The ACM SIGMETRICS Conference on Measurement and 
    Modeling of Computer Systems is a forum for presenting state-of-the-art
    work that studies such questions of computer system design and usage, 
    through the application  of performance measurement and modeling techniques.
    Contributions that 'advance the state-of-the-art' through the development 
    of new performance evalution techniques, or the furthering of our 
    understanding of existing techniques, are also welcome''

   Specific topics include, but are not limited to, the following;

	o Computer Networks,  
	o Parallel Processing, 
	o Database/File systems,
	o Supercomputing, 
	o I/O Systems, 
	o Distributed Systems and 
	o Techniques (experimental methodology, Petri nets, Queuing networks, 	
	       reliability models, workload models).

   By September 23, 1986...

       SIX copies of each submission must reach the program chairman;

	  Derek Eager
	  Department of Computational Science
	  University of Saskatchewan
	  Saskatoon, CANADA S7N 0W0

       Papers should be no longer than 5000 words.
