Second Merged Symposium IPPS/SPDP 1999 13th International Parallel Processing Symposium & 10th Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Processing

April 12 - April 16, 1999
Condado Plaza Hotel and Casino,
San Juan, Puerto Rico

IPPS/SPDP 1999 will be held at the CONDADO PLAZA in San Juan, Puerto Rico. We apologize for earlier notices which listed the Caribe Hilton as the conference location. This change has been necessitated by the Caribe Hilton's decision to close their hotel on March 21, for major renovations. If you have already reserved a room at the Caribe Hilton, the hotel will make arrangements to transfer your reservation to the Condado Plaza, at the same special rate. You will be notified by the Caribe Hilton about this.

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

1999 will mark the 2nd anniversary of the merger of IPPS and SPDP. This united symposium, now referred to as IPPS/SPDP, will follow the format of previous meetings. It continues to serve as a forum for engineers and scientists from around the world to present their latest research findings in the fields of parallel processing and distributed computing. In this second year of conducting a joint program, IPPS/SPDP moves toward achieving an agenda responsive to the combined constituencies of two well-established events.

Sponsored by the TCPP and held in cooperation with ACM SIGARCH as well as the IEEE Computer Society's Technical Committees on Computer Architecture & Distributed Processing, IPPS/SPDP responds to the many topics generated by the intersection of these areas of interest, as well as established topics in each area. In addition to technical sessions of submitted paper presentations and addresses by invited speakers, the expanded agenda of IPPS/SPDP'99 will be explored via panels, workshops, tutorials, an industrial track, and commercial exhibits.
