               FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS
               ======================================

                     International Workshop on
              Advanced Parallel Processing Technologies
                              APPT'95

                September 26-27, 1995, Beijing, China


Currently, the economic and scientific relations between China and other
countries are becoming more and more closer. In pace with further opening 
and reform of the Chinese economy, a new opportunity for starting and 
intensifying international cooperation is provided. Such cooperation can 
be a fruitful challenge for research institutes as well as for the industry 
to establish common research and development projects.

For this purpose, a workshop on advanced methods for parallel and 
distributed processing will be held in Beijing, September 26-27, 1995. 
This workshop results from the cooperation between Northern Jiaotong 
University and University of Koblenz-Landau and is planned to be held 
in future alternately in China and Germany. It will provide a forum for
scientists and engineers to exchange up-to-date research results and 
experiences about parallel computer systems and to establish long-term 
coorperation in developing innovative products towards future market 
situations. The workshop will focus on both theory and applications. 
The working language is English. Besides invited keynote talks, papers 
describing original unpublished research work are solicited. The topics 
of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  - Innovative computer architectures
  - Parallel and distributed algorithms
  - Automatic parallelization of software
  - High-speed networks and services (information highways)
  - Design and development tools
  - Modelling of parallel systems (e.g., with Petri nets)
  - Performance measurement and analysis
  - Neural networks and their applications
  - Artificial intelligence
