The USENIX Association is pleased to announce that beginning early in 1988 it will be publishing a quarterly COMPUTING SYSTEMS The USENIX Association Journal Michael D. O'Dell, Maxim Technologies, will serve as Editor-in-Chief. This journal will be dedicated to the analysis and understanding of the theory, art, design, engineering, and implementation of advanced computing systems, with an emphasis on systems inspired or influenced by the UNIX tradition. Articles concerning operating systems, architecture, networking, programming languages, and sophisticated applications are of interest. Papers will reflect a mix of theory and practical experience. I am pleased that the journal will be printed by the University of California Press, known worldwide for it excellence in design, typography, and production. Submissions, in nroff/troff format should be sent to {uunet,ucbvax,...}!usenix!peter until the beginning of September; thereafter to usenix!journal. Hard copy submissions should be supplied in five (5) copies and mailed to Computing Systems USENIX Association PO Box 2299 Berkeley, CA 94710 The Association hopes to have a rapid turnaround, with only 6-8 months between submission and publication. The first issue will contain articles concerning the Synthesis kernel (Pu, Massalin, & Ioannidis); languages for real-time programming (Donner & Jameson), and Dynamics for computer graphics (Wilhelms). Computing Systems will be a benefit of membership to USENIX members and will be available at $40/year from University of California Press 2120 Berkeley Way Berkeley, CA 94720, to non-members.
