Special Issue on  Applications for Shared-Memory Multiprocessors
 

IEEE Computer has planned to devote the December 1996 issue to Applications
for Shared-Memory Multiprocessors. Manuscripts are solicited that focus 
on emerging, preferably non-numeric, applications that can benefit from 
shared-memory multiprocessors. Manuscripts that report on tools and 
methodologies for performance tuning of such applications are also welcome. 
Topics of interest include
 
o       Emerging applications 
 
o       Application performance
 
o       Methodologies and tools for performance tuning
 
o       Compiler optimization techniques
 
INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMITTING MANUSCRIPTS

Manuscripts should be no longer than 20 double spaced, single sided pages
including text, figures, and references. No more than 12 references should
