- OONSKI'93 CALL FOR PAPERS
-
- OBJECT ORIENTED NUMERICS CONFERENCE
- (Sponsored by Rogue Wave Software in Cooperation with SIAM)
-
- Sunriver, Oregon
- April 25-27, 1993
-
- Theme:
- This conference will concern itself with Object-Oriented Numerics:
- the use of modern object-oriented techniques in the design of software
- solutions to numerical problems.
-
- There will be four separate focus areas:
-
- 1.) Reusable software components - One of the promises of object-
- oriented design is easily reusable code. In this area, papers are
- invited on the design and implementation of libraries of numerical
- classes intended for use as building blocks in applications.
-
- 2.) Applications - Only rarely can a large application be built
- entirely from off-the-shelf components. More often, application-
- specific classes are built by putting together existing components and
- custom-built components. In this area papers are invited on
- application-specific designs and their object-oriented implementations.
-
- 3.) Parallelism - Although parallel processing allows far larger
- numerical problems to be solved, the algorithms can be difficult to
- implement. In this area papers are invited on the use of object-oriented
- techniques to manage the complexity of parallel models of computation.
- Both new languages and innovative uses of existing languages will be
- considered.
-
- 4.) Object Oriented Compiler Technology - Performance with respect to
- both memory utilization and speed must always be addressed for numeric
- applications. Papers presenting difficulties encountered with current
- compiler tools and languages as well as advances in either compiler
- implementations and/or language characteristics will be considered.
-
- AUTHOR INFORMATION FOR CALL FOR PAPERS:
- Authors are invited to submit:
- 1.) One page abstract containing 50-80 words, the title of the
- presentation, author names, affiliation, addresses, fax numbers,
- telephones, and the person who will present the work if accepted.
-
- 2.) An extended summary of at least 500 words, or a full paper.

- program committee, and accepted papers will be published in the
- conference proceedings. Authors will be notified of acceptance or
- rejection via email (or fax if necessary)

- Why OONSKI? The conference is being held in Sunriver, Oregon where you
- will find some of the best spring skiing in the country on Mt. Bachelor.
- Come Saturday the 24th of April and have a full day of skiing or enjoy
- one of the top golf courses in the US.
-
- ACCOMMODATIONS: The conference will be held at Sunriver Lodge in
- Sunriver, Oregon. You can take United Express into Redmond/Bend airport
- and then a 36 mile taxi/van ride to Sunriver. You can also fly to
- Portland and rent a car for a 175 mile drive which takes you through a
- variety of spectacular Northwest scenery. For those of you interested
- in bringing your private plane in, Sunriver Lodge has a private 5,500
- ft. paved, lighted airstrip open year-round.
-
- Convention lodge rates are as follows:
-
- Bedroom (1-2 people) - $79.00
