Start Your Participation in COMPCON SPRING 89 Now!

WHAT IS COMPCON?  Over the years COMPCON has been known for consistently
providing a high quality program covering broad-based updates on
technological progress. Each year, technical people with transnational
contacts from industry, academia and research labs get together and study
the rapid advances being made in the computer field.

EXPAND YOUR PROFESSIONAL GROWTH!  Here is your opportunity to contribute
toward making this major computing conference the best COMPCON ever!
Assist the Program Committee in generating a program which includes topics
in your area of expertise or interest.

1.  Submit an extended abstract, or a full paper, in your area of expertise for
    a proposed COMPCON presentation.  Send four copies and include your phone 
    number.

2.  Submit a proposal for a session, panel or tutorial you would like to
    organize or in which you would like to participate.

3.  Suggest topics, sessions, panels or tutorials you would like to have the
    Program Committee develop and present, if possible at COMPCON SPRING '89.

To maintain high quality, the Program Committee reviews all papers and
generally limits sessions to ninety minutes with three speakers.  Papers on
your experience with real systems rather than those with theoretical contacts
are strongly encouraged.
