PRELIMINARY CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
SECOND WORKSHOP ON LARGE GRAINED PARALLELISM
OCTOBER 11-14, 1987
HIDDEN VALLEY, PENNSYLVANIA
Organized by the Software Engineering Institute and the Department of
Computer Science, Carnegie Mellon University, with the cooperation of
the Computer Society of the IEEE (pending approval).
The Second Workshop on Large Grained Parallelism is being organized to
bring together researchers in the areas of programming languages,
methodologies, and formalisms for loosely-coupled computer
networks, and developers of applications who would benefit from such
work. Issues of interest within these areas include, but are not limited
to, performance, fault tolerance, real-time execution, and heterogeneity of
the environment.
Attendance is by invitation only. Researchers interested in participating
must submit five (5) copies of a short (1 or 2 pages long) abstract
describing their activities in the areas of interest outlined above.
The workshop technical sessions will consist of a combination of
formal presentations, panel sessions, and working group meetings. Only a
subset of the participants will address the audience in the formal
sessions. All of the abstracts will be published as conference
proceedings and will be available to the participants upon arrival. The
participants will have the option of submitting a revised version
of their abstracts a few weeks prior to the meeting.
