                       CALL FOR PAPERS 

          Special Issue of the PARALLEL COMPUTING Journal 
             on Multiprocessor Performance Evaluation 

A special issue of Multiprocessor Performance Evaluation is planned for the 
PARALLEL COMPUTING journal published by North-Holland, Elsevier
in April 1996.  
Along the line of three major evaluation methods: performance measurement, 
analytic performance modeling and performance simulation,   
this special issue will cover various topics on quantitative 
evaluation of multiprocessor architectures and systems. 
Papaers are solicited on any aspects of multiprocessor performance 
evaluation. Topic areas include, but not limited to, 

 * Performance evaluation and measurement of multiprocessor architectures 
 * Performance modeling and analysis 
 * Performance metrics 
 * Performance predictions 
 * Performance of memory systems and I/O  
 * Performance implications of multiprocessor systems 
 * Performance improvement through program optimizations 
 * Performance evaluation and simulation tools  

For submissions to the special issue, manuscripts must not have been 
previously published or currently submitted for publications in other 
journals. Five copies of double-spaced manuscripts should be sent to either 
of the two guest editors by April 1, 1995. Authors will be notified 
of the final acceptance/rejection decision by October 1, 1995.
