The first international Workshop on Parallel Compilation took place
in Kingston, Canada, May 6-8th, 1990. Although there has been
considerable work in this area over the last several years,
this is the first time that the active researchers have
met to synthesize their results. Representatives from
most of the groups working on this problem around the world attended.
There were participants from Australia, Canada, West Germany,
the Netherlands, and the USA.
The proceedings of the workshop are available to anyone who is interested
(see order information below). Here is a list of talks and papers
presented:
