Friedman) Organization: R&D, NCR Corp., Dayton, Ohio Lines: 99 Architecture Minitrack on Transputer Research This is to announce an architecture minitrack for the HICSS-22 conference in Hawaii on Transputer based research. The minitrack will contain sever sessions (a session is three papers on a given topic) on architectures using Transputers, algorithms, application areas, Operating Systems, ASIC and other areas to be determined (or suggested!!!). I plan on having a forum for interested parties to discuss transputer architecture issues. I am looking for papers in these areas and session coordinators. This is an early call for papers but will permit me to create a better minitrack for all of us. Please post this and inform all interested parties to contact me. Thanks, ALOHA What follows is the conference overview.................. HAWAII INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SYSTEM SCIENCES HICSS-22 SOFTWARE TRACK INTENT TO PARTICIPATE FORM Twenty-Second Annual HICSS Conference Jan. 3-6, 1989, Hawaii GENERAL INFORMATION HICSS provides a forum for the interchange of ideas, research results, development activities, and applications among academicians and practitioners in the information, computing, and system sciences. HICSS is sponsored by the University of Hawaii in cooperation with the ACM, the IEEE Computer Society, and the Pacific Research Institute for Information Systems and Management (PRIISM). HICSS-22 will consist of tutorials, open forums, task forces, a distinguished lecturer series, and the presentation of accepted manuscripts which emphasize research and development activities in software technology, architecture, decision support and knowledge-based systems, emerging technologies and advanced applications. The best papers, selected by the program committee in eac of these areas, are given an award at the meeting. There is a high degre of interaction and discussion among the conference participants as the meeting is conducted in a workshop-like setting. INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMITTING PAPERS Manuscripts should be 22-26 typewritten, double-spaced pages in length. Please do not send submissions that are significantly shorter or longer than this. Papers must not have been previously presented or published nor currently submitted for journal publication. Each manuscript will b put through a rigorous refereeing process. Manuscripts should have a title page that includes the title of the paper, full name of its author(s), affiliation(s), complete physical and electronic address(es), telephone number(s) and a 300-word abstract of the paper. DEADLINES FOR AUTHORS o A 300-word abstract is due by March 1, 1988 o Feedback to author concerning abstract by March 31, 1988 o Six copies of the manuscript are due by June 6, 1988. o Notification of accepted papers by September 1, 1988. o Accepted manuscripts, camera-ready, are due by October 3, 1988. DEADLINES FOR MINI-TRACK, SESSION, AND TASK-FORCE COORDINATORS If you would like to coordinate a mini-track, session, or task force, you must submit for consideration a 3 page abstract in which you describe the topic you are proposing, its timeliness and importance, a its treatment in recent conferences and workshops before December 15, 1987.
