IEEE Workshop on Experimental Distributed Systems
(CALL FOR PAPERS)
With the sponsorship of the technical committee on Distributed
Processing of the IEEE Computer Society and in cooperation with the
Usenix Association, I have been asked to organize a workshop on
Experimental Distributed Systems. This workshop will be held on
October 11-12, 1990 in Huntsville, Alabama in conjunction with
the Ninth IEEE Symposium on Reliable Distributed Systems (see page
54 of the IEEE Computer, January, 1990).
The workshop will cover experiences, performance, and observations
obtained from current efforts in distributed systems around the
world in academia and industry. A similar workshop was held in
October 1986 and resulted in a special issue of IEEE Transaction on
Software Engineering (June 1989).
Please submit 10 copies of a 2 page extended abstract to
Professor Bharat Bhargava
Department of Computer Science
Purdue University
West Lafayette, IN 47906, USA
by April 1, 1990. This abstract will be used to invite speakers and
participants to this limited attendance workshop. The program
committee for the workshop is as follows: Calton Pu (Columbia),
Ken Birman (Cornell), Satish Tripathi (Maryland),
George Leach (AT&T, Paradyne), Gene Spafford (Purdue), John Riedl
(Minnesota), Prasun Dewan (Purdue), Kane Kim (UC-Irvine), Terje
Fallmyr (Univ. of Tromso, Norway), Roger Shultz (Rockwell Intl.),
Yousef Khalidi (SUN Microsystems), and Hugh Lauer (Kodak).
Extended papers based on the submission and workshop will be
considered for publication in the newsletter of the Technical
Committee on Distributed Processing, Proceedings of the workshop,
and special issue of a journal.
Please forward this call for papers to your colleagues.
