ICA3PP-96 CALL FOR PAPERS =========================================================== IEEE Second International Conference on Algorithms and Architectures for Parallel Processing Singapore June 11-13, 1996 ----------------------------------------------------------- The successful inaugural ICA3PP event was held in Brisbane, Australia, in April 1995. The second conference is being organised by IEEE Singapore in collaboration with the Department of Information Systems & Computer Science, National University of Singapore. TOPICS ------ ICA3PP aims to establish itself as a high-quality international forum for discussion in the areas of parallel processing, distributed computing, and other related high-performance topics. It will therefore be of interest to scientists, researchers, engineers, and practitioners. Typical, but not exclusive topics of interest are: - parallel architectures and systems - parallel algorithms - parallel programming languages - parallel programming environments and debugging - distributed operating systems - resource management - scheduling and workload management - performance evaluation - parallel I/O systems and interconnection networks - theoretical frameworks for designing parallel systems - applications and tools The scientific program will include a number of invited talks in addition to the presentations of the accepted papers. The ICA3PP-96 proceedings will be published by IEEE Press. SUBMISSIONS ----------- Prospective authors are invited to send *five* copies of their full papers to the following address: Benjamin Lian, ICA3PP-96 Dept of Information Systems & Computer Science National University of Singapore Lower Kent Ridge Road Singapore 0511 Republic of Singapore Papers must describe original, previously unpublished research, be written and presented in English, and not exceed 20 pages (A4 or letter format, 12 point type), and not be simultaneously submitted for publication elsewhere. The cover page should include the title of the paper, full names of the authors, affiliations, a short abstract, keywords, a return mailing address, an electronic mail address (if possible), and telephone and telefax numbers. All papers will be reviewed internationally, so the body of the paper must not contain references to the authors. Proposals for tutorials (full and half-day) and special sessions are also solicited. Your proposal should include the lecture outline, assumed background of audience, and vitae of presenters. Tutorials will be held on the day before the conference, June 10, 1996.

It is one of the most important crossroads of the world, and is truly a place where East and West meet, where Chinese, Indians, Malays, and a mixture of other races live harmoniously together. Their long-established cultures form a unique backdrop to a clean and modern garden city. English is the common business language and is spoken island-wide. There is a wide variety of beautifully appointed yet reasonably-priced hotels offering impeccable standards of Asian service and hospitality. And few places in the world can offer such a range of delights for the palate, with gourmet cuisine from over 30 countries available to the discerning gourmand. Singapore's climate is warm and welcoming all year round. Daily temperatures range from about 23 degC in the evenings to about 29 degC in the day. Humidity typically ranges from 65% to 95%.
