	       	  FOURTH IEEE INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON 
             HIGH PERFORMANCE DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING (HPDC-4)

                             August 1-4, 1995
                 The Ritz Carlton, Pentagon City, Virginia USA
SPONSORS:
   	- IEEE Computer Society - TC on Distributed Processing
        - Northeast Parallel Architectures Center (NPAC) at Syracuse University

IN COOPERATION WITH:
        - ACM SIGCOMM
        - Rome Laboratory

THEME: 
The Fourth International Symposium on High Performance Distributed
Computing is a forum for presenting the latest research findings on the
application of parallel and distributed computing for solving computationally
intensive applications across a network of high-performance computers.
Authors are invited to submit full papers on all aspects of high performance
distributed computing.  Papers that deal with high-level tools, 
languages, and environments, as well as novel applications, are of 
particular interest. Papers receiving the best reviews
will also be considered for publication in a special issue
of the journal Concurrency: Practice and Experience
on high-performance distributed computing.


TOPICS OF INTEREST (include, but are not limited to):

- Software environments and language support
  for high performance distributed computing
- Parallel and distributed algorithms to solve computationally
  intensive problems across a LAN, MAN, or WAN.
- High performance I/O and file systems
- Fault tolerance
- Architectural support for high-speed communications or
  interconnection networks
- Efficient communication interfaces for distributed computing
- Gigabit network architectures
- Networking for multimedia data
- HPDC applications and case studies
