- - - CALL FOR PAPERS AND REFEREES HAWAII INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SYSTEM SCIENCES - 22 WORKSTATION ENVIRONMENTS FOR GRAPHICAL PROGRAMMING 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 WORKSTATION ENVIRONMENTS FOR GRAPHICAL PROGRAMMING. The session will address recent advances in the development and use of integrated workstation environments that support graphical representations and graphical software development techniques. In particular, papers are invited that focus on logical and methodological integration of textual and graphical environment tools rather than contributions stressing graphical design and programming as an isolated topic. The central thread of intended contribution should span several activities of the software development process or several mechanisms that describe the environment in terms of its construction and its outwards characteristics. Papers that report on substantial applications of graphical environments and software development tools are also invited. Those papers selected for presentation will appear in the Conference Proceedings which is published by the "Computer Society of the IEEE". HICSS-22 is sponsored by the University of Hawaii in cooperation with the ACM, the Computer Society, and the Pacific Research Institute for Information Systems and Management (PRIISM). Submissions are solicited in: - adaptable interactive structure editors for graphical design, specification, and programming languages - semantic tools for graphical notations such as interpreters, simulators, verifiers - structure based techniques and tools for maintaining large software systems; e.g., graphically supported configuration management, version control, restructuring of software architectures - test and debugging support for graphical notations - transformation techniques for graphical designs, programs - graphics support for specification and retrieval of reusable system components - adaptable, application independent graphical user interfaces - graphical specification of software development processes INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMITTING PAPERS Manuscripts should be 22-26 typewritten, double-spaced pages in length. Do not send submissions that are significantly shorter or longer than this. Papers must not have been previously presented or published, nor currently submitted for journal publication. Each manuscript will be put through a rigorous refereeing process. Manuscripts paper should have a title page that includes the title of the paper, full name of its author(s), affiliation(s), complete physical and electronic address(es), telephone number(s) and a 300-word abstract of the paper. DEADLINES - A 300-word abstract is due by March 30, 1988 - Feedback to author concerning abstract by April 15, 1988 - Six copies of the manuscript are due by June 6, 1988 - Notification of accepted papers by September 1, 1988 - Accepted manuscripts, camera-ready, are due by October 3, 1988 SEND SUBMISSIONS AND QUESTIONS TO Bernd Kraemer GMD-F2G2 P.O.
