A large number of supercomputers are now or will in the future be running 
UNIX as their primary operating system.  This is the first workshop to 
consider the general problems of running UNIX on supercomputers, and will 
cover topics both practical and abstract.  Areas of specific interest 
include but are not limited to:
 
	Systems administration
	Archiving
	Scheduling
	File systems
	Networking and network protocols
	Job batching systems
	Monitoring Performance/parallelism
	Programming languages and environments
	Fast file I/O
	Shared memory management
	IPC
	Very large files
	Checkpoint-restart
 
The workshop will include both shorter presentations and full-length
papers, and there will also be tours of Pittsburgh Supercomputing
Center and Westinghouse Energy Center facilities and a reception at
the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center.  Workshop proceedings will be
available at the Workshop.
 
If you are interested in presenting either a full paper or a brief
discussion of your current work, please send an abstract of your paper
or presentation to Melinda Shore by  July 15, 1988 .  If you are sending
your submission by US Mail, please send three copies.  All submissions
will be acknowledged.

                       CALL FOR PAPERS 

    HAWAII INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SYSTEM SCIENCES - 22

                 High Performance Architectures

            KAILUA-KONA, HAWAII - JANUARY 3-6, 1989

  The Architecture Track of HICSS-22  will contain a series of
  papers focusing upon Architectures  which are at the leading
  edge  of  the  performance/price curve.   Such  systems  are
  variously classified as:

     o   Mini-supercomputers
     o   Super-minicomputers
     o   High performance workstations

  Examples of  such systems/manufactures include, but  are not
  limited to:

     o   Convex, Alliant, Warp, RP-3
     o   Sequent, Multiflow
     o   Ardent, Stellar, Sillicon Graphics, SUN, Apollo, MIPs

  Their rationale,  design tradeoffs,  and performance  is in-
  tended to be a major focus in this mini-track.  The majority
  of the information available  about such architectures tends
  to  focus upon  simple performance  benchmarks and  metrics,
  such as  Whetstones, Dhrystones,  MIPs, MFLOPs,  etc., which
  unfortunately muddle  the issues of  architecture, hardware,
  compilers, and applications.

  From a researcher's  viewpoint the major issues  are why the
  design and its associated  compromises were adopted, and how
  well the  architecture matches a spectrum  of hardware, lan-
  guages, and applications.  From  a users viewpoint the major
  issues are what the performance  of the architecture can ac-
  tually deliver for a given application.

  Papers are invited that give an analysis of high-performance
  architectures, from either a  developer's or user's perspec-
  tive. For example:

     o   How do existing high-performance architectures effec-
         tively exploit  hardware and  applications character-
         istics to yield high performance.

     o    What are the rationale  and design tradeoffs to bal-
         ance

         -   High performance for a range of applications
         -   Low design, manufacturing costs
         -   Ease of  evolution to match rising  hardware per-
             formance
         -   Architectures  designed to  enhance software  and
             applications portability

     o   How  can  high-performance architectures  be  instru-
         mented and meaningfully compared?

     o   How do  projected continued hardware  advances affect
         the evolution  of current  high-performance architec-
         tures?

  HICSS-22 is sponsored by the University of Hawaii  in  coop-
  eration  with   the  ACM,   the  Computer Society,  and  the
  Pacific Research Institute for  Information Systems and Man-
  agement (PRIISM).

  INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMITTING PAPERS
  Manuscripts  should   be  22-26  typewritten,  double-spaced
  pages  in length.    Do not  send submissions  that are sig-
  nificantly shorter  or longer  than  this.  Papers must  not
  have been  previously   presented or  published,  nor   cur-
  rently  submitted   for  journal  publication.   Each  manu-
  script   will  be   put   through  a   rigorous   refereeing
  process.   Manuscripts  should have  a title page  that  in-
  cludes  the  title  of  the   paper,  full   name  of    its
  author(s),   affiliation(s),  complete  physical   and elec-
  tronic  address(es),   telephone  number(s) and  a  300-word
  abstract of the paper.

  DEADLINES
     o   A 300-word abstract is due by May 10, 1988.
     o   Feedback  to author  concerning abstract  by May  15,
         1988.
     o   Six copies of the manuscript are due by June 6, 1988.
     o   Notification  of  accepted  papers  by  September  1,
         1988.
     o   Accepted manuscripts, camera-ready,  are due by Octo-
         ber 3, 1988.

  Applications-Specific Architectures

  Algorithms for Application-Specific Computing

  Applications that Require Specific Computing Systems

  Software for Applications-Specific Computing

  Hardware for Applications-Specific Computing

  Design Methodology for Applications-Specific Parallel Processing

encouraged but five page (doublespaced) summaries will be
considered.  Full papers are due by June 1, 1990 for inclusion
in the hard bound Conference Proceedings.

Papers should be submitted to:
