           APPROACHES TO PERSISTENCY IN DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS 
	            Software-Minitrack of the
     29th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, HICSS-29
                   Maui, Hawaii - January 3-6, 1996
**************************************************************************

We are seeking original manuscripts dealing with persistency in high 
performance distributed and/or parallel systems. The following topics are 
of major interest:

        o suitable semantics of persistent objects for 
          high performance distributed/parallel Systems
        o efficient and save type-handling
        o object addressing schemes integrating persistence 
          and distribution
        o granularity of distribution, sharing and persistence
        o design and configurability 
          of distributed/parallel object stores
        o integration of parallel I/O
        o impact of new hardware developments on the design 
          of persistent systems
        o distributed/parallel persistent applications.

Other submissions not directly covered by the abovementioned topics,
but generally concentrating on persistence in distributed/parallel systems 
are welcome too. Those papers selected for presentation will appear in the 
Conference Proceedings, published by the IEEE Computer Society.

1995 Deadlines
**************
o  A 300-word abstract by April 15
o  Feedback to author on abstract by April 20
o  Eight copies of the manuscript by June 1
o  Notification of accepted papers by August 31
o  Camera-ready copies of accepted manuscripts are due by October 2

Instructions for Submitting Papers
**********************************
Manuscripts should be 22-25 typewritten, double-spaced pages in length. 
Papers must not have been previously presented or published, nor currently 
submitted for journal publication. Each manuscript will be subjected to a 
rigorous refereeing process involving at least five reviewers. Manuscripts 
should have a title page that includes the title of the paper, full name(s)
of author(s), affiliation(s), complete postal and electronic mail address(es), 
telephone and FAX numbers, and a 300-word abstract of the paper.

Submit your 300-word abstract and then eight copies of the paper to
