                            CALL FOR PAPERS

  15th IEEE INTERNATIONAL PHOENIX CONFERENCE ON COMPUTERS AND COMMUNICATIONS

                          March 27 - 29, 1996

                            Phoenix, Arizona

	   (http://www.ece.arizona.edu/conferences/ipccc96)

This  international conference  provides  a forum  for the presentation and 
exchange  of current work in computers,  communications,  their  synergism, 
and  their  applications.   In addition  to participation  by the  academic 
community,   we  particularly  wish   to  encourage   the   involvement  of 
practitioners  in industrial,  business and  government settings.   We know
it is vital that there be a dialogue between practitioners and researchers.  
Thus, in addition  to research contributions, we  solicit reports detailing 
experiments, evaluation, problems, and opportunities associated with design, 
implementation and operation.


PAPERS

Submitted  manuscripts must  be no longer than 5000 words, be typed double-
spaced and include  an abstract of  approximately 300 words.  Longer papers 
and  reports will  not be considered.   Authors should  obtain  company and 
government  clearances  prior to submission of the  papers.  Please  submit 
five copies of complete paper and abstract by September 1, 1995 to:

November 11, 1994.    Accepted  papers will  be  published in the IPCCC '96
Proceedings.  Awards  will be  given for  the  Best Paper  and for the Best 
Presentation.  Outstanding  papers  will be considered for  publication  in 
related IEEE journals.
