Deborah, here is another option for papers on networking - note the prize $ for student papers. Vint Cerf Chairman, ACM/SIGCOMM -------------------------------------------- ------ ACM SIGCOMM '90 SYMPOSIUM Communications Architectures and Protocols Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (Subject to ACM approval.) The symposium provides an international forum for the presentation and discussion of communication network applications and technologies, as well as recent advances and proposals on communication architectures, protocols, algorithms, and performance models. Authors are invited to submit full papers concerned with both theory and practice. The areas of interest for the symposium include, but are not limited to the following: analysis and design of computer network architectures and algorithms, innovative results in local area networks, computer-supported collaborative work, network interconnection and mixed-media networks, high-speed networks, resource sharing in distributed systems, distributed operating systems and databases, protocol specification, verification, and analysis. Papers should be about 20 double-spaced pages long and should have an abstract of 100-150 words. All submitted papers will be reviewed and will be judged with respect to their quality and relevance. Authors of selected papers will be expected to sign an ACM copyright release form. The Proceedings will be distributed at the symposium and published as a special issue of SIGCOMM Computer Communication Review. A few of the submitted papers will be selected for publication in the ACM Transactions on Computer Systems. Submit 5 copies of each paper to the program chairman: Phil Karn, Bell Communications Research, Mail-stop 2P-357, 435 South St, Morristown, New Jersey, 07960, USA Telephone: (201) 829-4299; EMAIL: karn@flash.bellcore.com For more information about the symposium, contact Prof. David Farber, General Chair, Professor of Computer and Information Science and of Electrical Engineering, University of Pennsylvania, 200 South 33rd St, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 19104-6389; Tel: (215) 898-9508 or 274-8192; EMAIL: farber@cis.upenn.edu Papers on Networking In The Year 2000 One or more sessions of the conference will be devoted to the subject of networking in the year 2000. Papers in these sessions will focus on key issues in building very fast (1 gigabit per second and faster) and/or very large (200 million end nodes or more) data networks. Persons interested in submitting papers in this area are encouraged to contact either the program chair, Phil Karn, or Craig Partridge (craig@bbn.com), who will be coordinating the papers in this area. Student Paper Award Papers submitted by students will enter a student-paper award contest. Among the accepted papers, a maximum of four outstanding papers will be awarded (1) full conference registration and (2) a travel grant of $500 US dollars. IMPORTANT DATES Deadline for paper submission: March 20, 1990

Some minor corrections to the ACM SIGCOMM '90 call for papers: My snail mailing address is Phil Karn Bellcore Room 2P-357 445 South St PO Box 1910 Morristown, NJ 07962-1910 and my email address is karn@thumper.bellcore.com. The addresses given in the announcement will work, but these are more direct. I would especially like to encourage papers in the field of very high speed packet switching, where "very high speed" means speeds of 150 megabits/sec or more. Topics covered could include high speed packet switch architectures, host interfaces, access protocols (including fragmentation/reassembly protocols and algorithms), transport protocols designed for high bandwidth-high delay paths, network resource management, etc. Phil
