DMCC6, which continues the conference series originally called Hypercube
Multiprocessors, solicits papers, posters, tutorials, workshops, research
exhibits, and vendor exhibits related to any aspect of distributed memory
parallel computing.

Paper/Poster submission:  Send 3 copies of either the entire paper or an
  extended abstract of about 4 papers.  Each submission should begin with
  a short abstract of no more than 400 words, followed by a list of key
  words.  Submissions should have a succinct statement of the problems
  considered, results achieved, the significance of the work, and compar-
  ison to past work.  Indicate the desired method of presentation (talk,
  poster, or either).  Poster submissions may be used to present work-in-
  progress, or significant updates to prior work.  To encourage late-
  breaking results, poster-only submissions may be a 1-page abstract, and
  late poster submissions may be accepted subject to merit and space.

Tutorial proposals:  Send a description of audience, lecture outline,
  one-page abstract, vita, and three references who are familiar with
  your lecturing ability.

Panels/Workshops:  These have provided a lively and informative forum
  for the exchange of ideas, results, and viewpoints at prior HCCA and
  DMCC conferences, and will again be encouraged.  Submit a short
  proposal listed suggested participants and their qualifications.
  Late submissions may be accepted, subject to merit and space.

All submissions should include the complete mailing address, e-mail 
address, and phone number of the person to be notified.  Send paper,
poster, tutorial, panel, or workshop submissions to:
