Gabarro, Universitat Polithcnica de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain, Vice-Chair Giles Villard, IMAG, Grenoble, France, Local Chair Deadline: February 4, 1996 (paper); February 18, 1996 (electronic) Euro-Par is THE annual European conference in Parallel Processing. It merges the former PARLE and CONPAR-VAPP conferences, two major events of the field. The 1996 version will consist of a large panel of highly focused workshops on all aspects of parallel processing, from theory to practice, from academy to industry. They are expected to present the latest advances in their respective domains. They will be introduced by several high level tutorials of general interest. More than 20 workshops have been launched in parallel, ranging from 1/2 to 2 days. All accepted papers will appear in the proceedings published by Springer-Verlag in the LNCS Series. Workshop #06: Parallel Discrete Algorithms The aim of this workshop is to discuss the state of the art in parallel discrete algorithms. Algorithmic ideas will be presented on different levels, ranging from abstract computational models as, e.g., PRAM, BSP, LogP to concrete implemenations. Discrete algorithms from a large variety of areas are considered, ranging from combinatorial optimization, discrete simulation, pattern recognition and image processing to computational geometry and graph theory. Special attention will be devoted to the scalability of the methods and the portability to machines of different granularity, as this is of highest importance for the applicability of a method. Thus, a special aim of this workshop is to discuss the construction of parallel discrete algorithms that are adaptable to the special characteristic of the underlying hardware paltform. Topics of interest include: Graph Algorithms Parallel discrete optimization methods Parallel algorithms for computational geo Parallel discrete simulation methods Scalability analysis of algorithms Parallel algorithms for image processing Discrete algorithms and computing mode Parallel pattern recognition algorithms Further information is available at URL http://www.ens-lyon.fr/LIP/europar96. It includes the list of all workshops. Please send all information requests and comments to europar96@lip.ens-lyon.fr. Register today on the Euro-Par'96 mailing list by sending us a mail!

The cover page must clearly indicate the name, address, affiliation, phone and fax numbers and electronic address of the author(s), plus a 100-word abstract. The workshop number (06) and the workshop title related to each submitted paper must also be clearly indicated on the cover page. The official languages of the conference are English and French. Submitted papers must not be simultaneously under review for any other conference, and authors must point out any substantial overlap with their previously published work. Electronic submissions are most strongly encouraged. They are mandatory for all people having access to standard electronic facilities. They should consist of two e-mails: . The first one containing an ASCII cover page, giving the author's full name, address, telephone number, fax number, e-mail address, a 100-word abstract and keywords. . The second one with the printable file, most preferably in attachment. Accepted formats are uuencoded compressed EPSF PostScript files (most preferably generated by dvips). We are sorry not to be able to accommodate other file formats. If at all possible, please attempt to print the document on more than one brand/model of laser printers. If your program requests it, assume that the document will be printed on a 300 DPI standard PostScript Unix Sun laser printer. We will do our best to get all files printed. If a file cannot be printed in spite of all our efforts, we will have to reject the electronic submission. In case of doubt, send us a (possibly preliminary) paper version of the submission before the February 4, 1996 paper deadline (one copy is enough in this case). We will consider that the electronic version of the submission, if printable, is the final one. The files should be mailed to europar96@lip.ens-lyon.fr and received at this address before February 18, 1996, 12:00 GMT. Please note that this is a firm deadline. Paper submissions are only allowed for people without easy access to standard electronic facilities. Authors should send 6 copies of their submission to the official address below, postmarked before February 4, 1996. Please note that this is a firm deadline. Proceedings. All accepted papers will be published by SPRINGER-VERLAG in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science Series. Proceedings will be available at the conference. Papers will be published in 3 lengths: full papers (12 pages), short papers (8 pages), poster papers (4 pages). Register on the mailing list: Today! Deadline for paper submissions: February 4, 1996 Deadline for electronic submissions: February 18, 1996 Notification of acceptance: May 10, 1996 Final version due: June 10, 1996 Euro-Par'96 at ENS Lyon, France: August 27--29, 1996
