        Seventh International Parallel Processing Symposium

           Second Workshop on Heterogeneous Processing

   (Sponsored by IEEE Technical Committee on Parallel Processing)

SYMPOSIUM:  The seventh annual International Parallel
Processing Symposium (IPPS '93) will be held April 13-16, 1993 at
the Newport Beach Marriott Hotel and Tennis Club, Newport Beach,
California.  The symposium is sponsored by IEEE Computer Society
and will be held in cooperation with ACM SIGARCH.  IPPS '93 is a
forum for engineers and scientists from around the world to present
the latest research findings in all aspects of parallel and distributed
processing.

WORKSHOP: The second annual workshop on Heterogeneous
Processing (HP '93) will be held on the first day of the Symposium (April
13).  For the purposes of the  workshop, HP is considered the use of
different types of parallel processors,  processing components, or
connectivity paradigms to maximize performance, cost-
effectiveness and/or development effort.  HP might range in mode
from coupled  supercomputing-class machines at separated sites
(aka "Metacomputing") to diverse  elements in a single computer
(aka mixed-mode processing).  Components of  heterogeneous
processing have appeared in the scientific literature over the last
several years.  They have included such efforts as the matching of
individual code  segments to best-suited machines, the
development of heterogeneous processor suites to span wide
problem sets, and the intelligent management of heterogeneous
processor suites.

The workshop will feature an invited address and several sessions
of submitted paper  presentations.  Authors are invited to submit
manuscripts which demonstrate original  unpublished research in all
areas of Heterogeneous processing.  The topics of interest  include
but are not limited to the following:

Code Profiling                                  Network Profiling
Metacompilers                                   Analytic Benchmarking
Problem Mapping                                 Intelligent Management
Orchestration Tools                             Analysis Tools
Configuration Levels and Modes                  Configuration Switching
Crossover Strategies                            Processor Selection Criteria
Programming Tools                               Programming Paradigms

SUBMITTING PAPERS:  All papers will be reviewed.  Send five (5)
copies of complete  paper (not to exceed 15 single spaced, single
sided pages) to:

HP '93

Manuscripts must be received
by October 30, 1992.  Due to the large number of anticipated
submissions manuscripts postmarked later than October 30, 1992
risk rejection.  (Post overseas submissions air mail.)  Notification of
review decisions will be mailed by December 31, 1992.  Camera
ready papers are due January 29, 1993.  Proceedings will be
available at the symposium.
