                           CALL FOR PAPERS
      SIXTH ANNUAL PACIFIC NORTHWEST SOFTWARE QUALITY CONFERENCE
               September 19-20, 1988, Portland, Oregon

Original papers are solicited on all aspects of software quality.
Conference attendance will be about 400 software professionals from
industry, government, and universities.  This year's keynote speaker
is Edward Yourdon.  Papers will be selected on the basis of abstracts,
and refereed for publication in the Proceedings.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

case studies           parallel software       productivity and quality
liability              object-oriented design  testing technology
real-time software     risk management         cost/schedule estimation
project management     design methodologies    software metrics
user interfaces        documentation           marketing quality
CASE environments      reusability             software standards
version control        off-the-shelf software  re-engineering software

ABSTRACTS should include enough detail to give reviewers an under-
standing of the final paper, including a rough outline of its con-
tents.  Describe what has been learned, the work's implications, in
preference to giving details of what was done.  The abstract should be
2-4 pages long.

   PLEASE INDICATE:
     if the work is experimental or theoretical,
     whether software has been implemented,
     whether a case study is described,
     if the most likely audience is managerial or technical.

   ON A SEPARATE SHEET PROVIDE:
     paper title,
     complete mailing address, telephone, e-mail address,
     a list of keywords/phrases identifying the subject,
     a brief biographical sketch of the author(s).

Submit 5 copies by April 1 to:   Dick Hamlet, Program Chair
                                 Oregon Graduate Center
