			DISTRIBUTED SIMULATION
		          Call For Papers

Distributed Simulation
Part of the 1990 Western Multiconference
January 17-19, 1990
San Diego, CA

All papers related to the execution of continuous or discrete simulation
programs on multiple processor computing systems are invited.
Papers may deal with simulation on systems ranging from geographically
distributed computing systems to tightly coupled multiprocessors
and SIMD machines.  Specific topics of interest include, but are not
limited to:

* Methods for distributed, concurrent simulation, discrete or continuous

* Concurrent simulation methods for particular classes of systems
  (e.g., neural networks, electronic circuits, weather, computer systems
  and communication networks, military applications)

* Concurrent graphics and animation for simulation

* Concurrent real time simulation

* Machine architectures for concurrent simulation

* Programming constructs and languages for concurrent simulation

* Performance evaluation methods for concurrent simulation

* Empirical performance evaluation studies


Papers must be in English and will be limited to 6 pages in the
conference proceedings.  Papers must contain original contributions
to the field that have not been previously reported in the literature.
Papers that contain incremental improvements of previously published
work should clearly indicate new aspects of the work in the abstract.
Extended abstracts will be accepted if it is not possible to submit a
full paper by the July 31 deadline, however, full papers will receive
first priority.

Each submission should include the name, complete address and phone number
of each author.  Send six copies of the full text of papers to:

Dr. David M. Nicol
Department of Computer Science
College of William and Mary
Williamsburg, VA  23185

Papers are due July 31, 1989.  Authors will be notified of
acceptance Sept. 30, 1989.  Final papers are due Oct 31, 1989.
