Authors are invited to submit manuscripts that demonstrate original unpublished research in all areas of parallel processing including development of experimental or commercial systems. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

• Parallel Architectures
• Memory Hierarchies
• Parallel Algorithms
• Scientific Computing
• Parallel Languages
• Signal & Image Processing Systems
• Applications of Parallel and Distributed Computing
• Interconnection Networks and Implementation Technologies
• Programming Environments
• Parallelizing Compilers
• Special Purpose Processors
• VLSI Systems
• Performance Modeling/Evaluation

To submit an original research paper, send your complete manuscript (not to exceed 15 single-spaced pages of text using 12 point size type on 8.5 x 11 inch pages) to the Program Chair. References, figures, tables, etc. may be included in addition to the fifteen pages of text. Electronic submissions are encouraged and should be sent to {ipps98 or spdp98}@cise.ufl.edu. Electronic submissions must be in the form of a readable postscript file containing the following header information in ASCII form: title, author name(s), abstract, postal address, e-mail address, and telephone and fax numbers. The header (in ASCII) should be followed by the postscript version of the complete manuscript (including title, author's name, affiliation, and abstract).

Authors should submit a correct PostScript (level 2) file of their paper to be considered and make sure that the PostScript file will print on a PostScript printer that uses 8.5 x 11 inch size (letter size) paper.

All manuscripts will be reviewed. Manuscripts must be received by September 19, 1997. Submissions received after the due date or exceeding the length limit may not be considered. Notification of review decisions will be mailed by December 12, 1997. Camera-ready papers are due January 20, 1998. Proceedings will be available at the Symposium. Fax submissions will not be considered. Hard copy submissions are also permitted and, like electronic submissions, must be received by September 19, 1997. Send six copies of the manuscript to:
