    HAWAII INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SYSTEM SCIENCES - 22

       Testing, Verification, and Validation of Software

             KAILUA-KONA, HAWAII-JANUARY 3-6, 1989

  The Software Track of HICSS-22 will contain a special set of
  papers focusing on  a broad selection of topics  in the area
  of Testing,  Verification &  Validation of  Software.  These
  papers will  bring together  experience of  software practi-
  tioners in  safety-critical environ- ments, such  as process
  and  nuclear  industry,  tele- communications,  defense  and
  other  mission  critical  systems, to  produce  increasingly
  error-free software.

  Papers are invited that  may be theoretical, conceptual, tu-
  torial or descriptive in  nature.  Those papers selected for
  presentation will appear in the Conference Proceedings which
  is published by the Computer  Society of the IEEE.  HICSS-22
