-
- Call for Papers
- Fourth ACM SIGPLAN Symposium on
- Principles and Practice of Parallel Programming
- San Diego, California, May 19-21, 1993
-
- ===============================================================
- A Constituent Meeting of FCRC 1993 Inaugural Conference
- ===============================================================
-
- The goal of this Symposium is to promote the exchange of ideas
- and experience in parallel programming with emphasis on
- methodologies, tools, foundations, and scalability to large
- degrees of parallelism. We are soliciting submissions that: (1)
- center on experiments and comparative evaluation of parallel
- software, (2) report on new ideas in languages, compilers, and
- environments for parallel programming, or (3) summarize
- experience with parallel programming in a way that illustrates
- general principles.
-
- Topics of interest include:
-
- compilers, restructuring compilers, and parallel-program
- manipulation systems for parallel architectures;
-
- parallel language design and implementation;
-
- tools, environments, debuggers, performance monitors, load
- balancing and operating system support;
-
- experience with programming or porting applications to
- parallel architectures;
-
- performance aspects of parallel programming systems; and
-
- the relationship between parallel programming languages,
- compilers, and machine architectures;
-
-
- Papers reporting on experience should indicate how the
- experiments illustrate general principles; papers oriented
- towards foundations should indicate how the work illuminates or
- influences practice. Papers containing results derived from
- actual implementation on parallel machines and papers containing
- results applicable to highly parallel machines will be
- especially welcomed.
-
-
- Authors should submit 13 copies (preferably double-sided) of a
- technical summary of a prospective paper to the program chair.
- The submission should include an abstract, and be at most 5000
- words long (this is equivalent to 10 pages set in 10-point type
- on 16 point spacing). Longer summaries may be rejected
- summarily by the Program Chair. Papers awaiting acceptance by
- any other conference are ineligible for PPoPP '93; if a similar
- paper has been submitted elsewhere, the authors must notify the
- program chair.
-
- The summary must be organized so that it is easily understood.
- It should clearly identify what has been accomplished, why it is
- significant, and how it compares with prior work. Papers will
- be judged on clarity, significance, relevance, correctness, and
- originality. Papers should contain enough background material
- to make them accessible to the entire parallel programming
- research community.
-
- Submissions must be received by October 9, 1992, and
- should include a return mailing address and if possible, an
- electronic address. Authors will be notified of acceptance or
- rejection by December 14. Final versions of accepted
- papers must be received in camera-ready form by February
- 1. Authors of accepted papers will be expected to sign a
- copyright release form. Proceedings will be distributed at the
- conference and as a special issue of SIGPLAN Notices; they will
- be subsequently available from ACM. All papers published in the
- proceedings are eligible for publication in refereed ACM
- journals at the discretion of the editor.
-
- Tutorials will precede the conference on May 18. The advance program
- will announce the tutorial topics.
