Call for Papers
Workshop on UNIX and Supercomputers
Westin William Penn Hotel
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
September 26-27, 1988
Sponsored by the USENIX Association
NON-PRESENTERS WELCOME!
A large number of supercomputers are now or will in the future be running
UNIX as their primary operating system. This is the first workshop to
consider the general problems of running UNIX on supercomputers, and will
cover topics both practical and abstract. Areas of specific interest
include but are not limited to:
Systems administration
Archiving
Scheduling
File systems
Networking and network protocols
Job batching systems
Monitoring Performance/parallelism
Programming languages and environments
Fast file I/O
Shared memory management
IPC
Very large files
Checkpoint-restart
The workshop will include both shorter presentations and full-length
papers, and there will also be tours of Pittsburgh Supercomputing
Center and Westinghouse Energy Center facilities and a reception at
the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center. Workshop proceedings will be
available at the Workshop.
If you are interested in presenting either a full paper or a brief
discussion of your current work, please send an abstract of your paper
or presentation to Melinda Shore by July 15, 1988 . If you are sending
your submission by US Mail, please send three copies. All submissions
will be acknowledged.

***** CALL FOR PAPERS AND PARTICIPATION *****
28th Annual Technical Symposium of the Washington, D.C. Chapter of the ACM
INTERFACES: Systems and People Working Together
National Institute of Standards and Technology
Gaithersburg, Maryland - August 24, 1989
No computer is an island. Increasingly, systems are being tied together
to improve their value to the organizations they serve. This symposium will
explore the theoretical and practical issues in interfacing systems and in
enabling people to use them effectively.
*** SOME TOPICS OF INTEREST FOR SUBMITTED PAPERS ***
* HUMAN FACTORS *
User interfaces Meeting the needs of handicapped users
Conquering complexity Designing systems for people
Intelligent assistants The human dimension of information interchange
* SYSTEMS INTEGRATION *
Communications networks Distributed databases
Data standardization System fault tolerance
Communications standards (e.g. GOSIP)
* STRATEGIC SYSTEMS *
Decision support systems Embedding expert systems in information systems
Strategic info systems Computer Aided Logistics Support (CALS)
* SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT AND OPERATION *
Quality control and testing Designing a system of systems
System management Conversion and implementation strategies
Software tools and CASE Identifying requirements thru prototyping
* ENABLING TECHNOLOGIES FOR APPLICATIONS PORTABILITY *
Ada Database management
Open software Open protocol technology
Operating systems (e.g., POSIX)
==> DON'T BE LIMITED BY OUR SUGGESTIONS - MAKE YOUR OWN!
Both experienced and first-time authors are encouraged to present their
work. Papers will be refereed. A length of 10 to 20 double-spaced pages is
suggested.
Those presenting a paper are entitled to register for the symposium at
the early advance registration rate.
To propose special sessions or noncommercial demonstrations, please send
three copies of an extended abstract to the Program Chairman at the address
below.
Note: A paper must include the name, mailing address, and telephone
number of each author or other presenter. Authors of accepted papers must
transfer copyright to ACM for material published in the Proceedings (excepting
papers that cannot be copyrighted under Government regulations).
The ACM policy on prior publication was revised in 1987. A complete
statement of the policy appears in the November 1987 issue of Communications
of the ACM. In part it states that "republication of a paper, possibly
revised, that has been disseminated via a proceedings or newsletter is
permitted if the editor of the journal to which it has been submitted judges
that there is significant additional benefit to be gained from republication."
