The ACM International Conference on Supercomputing is a forum for engineers and
scientists throughout the world to exchange ideas and research results relating
to high performance supercomputing systems. The 9th Conference in the series,
ICS'95, will be held in Barcelona, Spain, in July, 1995. Papers describing
significant new research results and experience in the development and
application of supercomputing systems are solicited. The Conference Proceedings
will be published by ACM Press. A prize will be awarded to the best paper
submitted in each of the three technical areas.

The main focus of ICS'95 is high performance and parallel computing systems
viewed from three different perspectives: architecture, software and
applications. Within this framework, topics of interest include, but are not
restricted to, the following:

	* Large-scale applications and parallel algorithms;
	* Parallel and high performance computer architectures;
	* New experimental and commercial systems;
	* Optimizing compilers and programming languages;
	* Programming development tools;
	* Operating systems and systems support software;
	* Performance modelling and evaluation;
	* Supercomputing and chess.
