COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE WORKSHOPS: CALL for PROPOSALS The 16th Annual International Symposium on COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE (ISCA '89) Jerusalem/Eilat, Israel May 1989, ISRAEL sponsored by ACM SIGARCH (The Association for Computing Machinery, Special Interest Group on Computer Architecture) Beginning in 1989, the ACM-SIGARCH/IEEE-CS International Symposium on Com- puter Architecture is pleased to offer support for a number of workshops dealing with important issues in the field of Computer Architecture. Support consists of providing a meeting space for the workshop, overhead projectors, coffee and donuts, publishing the record, and publicity arrangements. Some financial support for travel may be possible, if proposals are promptly sub- mitted for consideration. Each workshop is requested to produce a record of the workshop events, dis- cussions, and presentations. These will later be published in a special issue of the ACM SIGARCH Computer Architecture Newsletter (CAN). Only a limited number of workshops can be accommodated. To assist in the organization of these workshops, the ISCA Organizing Committee is soliciting proposals for workshops. Proposals should include the title of the workshop, a brief description of the focus, the organization and format of the workshop, the duration (1, 2, or 3 days), and a proposed list of invitees. Proposals should be submitted as soon as possible, and in no case later than December 16, 1988, to: Professor Trevor Mudge 1101 Beal Ave. The University of Michigan EE/CS Department Ann Arbor, MI 48109-2120 tnm@crim.eecs.umich.edu (313) 764-0203 A selection committee will evaluate all proposals. Notifications of accep- tance will occur in a timely manner. The workshops will be held in Eilat, May 24 to 26 (for 1, 2, or 3 days), immediately prior to the Symposium (May 28 to June 1). Local sightseeing and scuba-diving in Eilat, Israel's resort on the Red Sea coast, and transporta- tion to Jerusalem at the end of the workshops, including touring and a visit to the Dead Sea, will be available as part of the workshop package.
