SLIGHT CORRECTION

Half-day John Mason Conference in connection with the British Association
Annual Festival of Science at the University of Leeds
on the afternoon of Thursday 11 September entitled "Gates vs.Gutenburg? The
impact of electronic publishing on the scientific community"

I would like to post a slight correction to the notice I sent out.It turns out
that participants to our conference can attend the full Leeds BA Festival
without any further formalities. All that is required is that they register
for the Conference through the Academia Europaea.

Please e-mail,fax or mail the Executive Secretary of the Academia,Peter Colyer

LAST CALL FOR PAPERS
====================
(Apologies if you receive multiple copies)

1998 ACM Symposium on Applied Computing (SAC '98)

Special Track on Coordination Models, Languages and Applications

February 27 - March 1, 1998
Marriott Marquis, Atlanta, Georgia, U. S. A.

(http://www.ucy.ac.cy/ucy/cs/SAC98.html)

SAC '98:
~~~~~~~~
Over the past twelve years, the ACM Symposium on Applied Computing
(SAC) has become a primary forum for applied computer scientists and
application developers from around the world to interact and present
their work. SAC'98 is sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Groups
SIGAda, SIGAPP, SIGBIO, and SIGCUE. Authors are invited to contribute
original papers in all areas of experimental computing and application
development for the technical sessions.

The most recent previous ACM SAC conferences were held in San Jose
(SAC'97), Philadelphia (SAC'96) and Nashville (SAC'95).

Coordination Models, Languages and Applications Track:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A new special track on coordination models, languages and applications
will be held at SAC'98. The term "coordination" here is used in a
rather broad sense covering traditional models and languages (eg. ones
based on the Shared Dataspace and CHAM metaphors) but also other
related formalisms such as configuration and architectural description
frameworks, systems modeling abstractions and languages, programming
skeletons, etc.

Major topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:

* Novel models, languages, programming and implementation techniques.
* Relationship with other computational models such as object
oriented, declarative (functional, logic, constraint) programming
or extensions of them with coordination capabilities.
* Applications (especially where the industry is involved).
* Theoretical aspects (semantics, reasoning, verification).
* Software architectures and software engineering techniques.
* All aspects related to the modeling of Information Systems
(groupware, Internet and the Web, workflow management, CSCW).

Guidelines for Submission:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Original papers and poster abstracts from the above-mentioned or other
related areas will be considered. This includes three categories of
submissions: 1) original and unpublished research; 2) reports of
innovative computing applications in the arts, sciences, engineering,
business, government, education and industry; and 3) reports of
successful technology transfer to new problem domains. Each submitted
paper will be fully refereed and undergo a blind review process by at
least three referees.

The accepted papers in all categories will be published in the ACM
Press SAC'98 proceedings. A special issue on Coordination Models,
Languages and Applications of the ACM/SIGAPP quarterly Applied
Computing Review is planned for the Fall of 1998 comprising expanded
versions of selected papers from those accepted in this track.

Submission guidelines must be strictly followed:

* Submit six (6) copies of original manuscripts to the SAC '98
Coordination Models, Languages and Applications Track Chair.
Electronic submissions in uuencoded compressed postscript format
are encouraged. Fax submissions will not be accepted.

* The author(s) name(s) and address(es) must not appear in the body
of the paper, and self-reference should be in the third person.
This is to facilitate blind review.

* The body of the paper should not exceed 5,000 words (approximately
15 pages, double-spaced).

* A separate cover sheet attached to each copy should show the title
of the paper, the author(s) name(s) and affiliation(s), and the
address (including e-mail, telephone, and FAX) to which
correspondence should be sent.

* All submissions must be received by August 15, 1997.

Important Dates:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* August 15, 1997: Paper Submission.
* October 15, 1997: Author Notification.
* December 1, 1997: Camera-Ready Copy.
