The 11th conference in the series will be held in Vienna, Austria, from July 7th through July 11th, 1997. Vienna is the site of one of the oldest universities in the world, which was the home of the Vienna Circle and Kurt Gödel and, in recent years, became a European Center for high performance parallel computing. The conference program includes * five keynote addresses by top-level researchers, * 43 contributed papers, * four workshops, all of which will take place on July 7th, * two panel sessions, * an exhibit, and * an industrial session. The social events include a reception by the Mayor of the City of Vienna, a formal Conference Dinner at an 18th-century Palais, and an informal evening at a typical Viennese wine restaurant. I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for the many individuals and institutions who contributed to this conference. Special thanks are due to the Program Chair, Steve Wallach, the Vice Program Chairs, Harry Wijshoff, Nikolay Mirenkov and Jim Smith, the other members of the Conference Committee, and the Program Committee. This Advance Program describes the conference in detail. Additional up-to-date information can be found at the ICS'97 World Wide Web page at http://www.par.univie.ac.at/~ics97.

Recent advance in high performance computing hardware and the internet has not been matched by the availability of effective supporting software. Consequently, software visualisation techniques have been increasingly used in the software tools that assist the development of parallel and distributed programs. The term software visualisation refers to the graphical display of characteristics and behaviour of all aspects of software: design and analysis methods, systems, programs and algorithms. Visual programming and program visualisation have become important features of user-friendly and efficient programming tools and environments for parallel and distributed systems. This special issue of IJSEKE aims at collecting and comparing wide range of software visualisation techiques and issues relating to the development of parallel and distributed programs. Although not limited to the following, manuscripts are sought from academia and industry on such topics as * Visual programming for parallel/distributed software construction * Parallel performance visualisation * Visual debugging of parallel/distributed programs * Cognitive aspects of visual parallel/distributed programming * Intelligent user interfaces for distributed softare development * Graphical formalisms for parallel and concurrent programs * Software visualisation tools for programming parallel and distributed systems * Knowledge-based systems supporting program visualisation and performance tuning * Meta-tools for developing parallel/distributed visualisation software Submission deadline: 1 June 1998 Notification due: 1 October 1998 Tentative publication date: April 1999 Paper preparation guidelines can be found in any issue of the journal, and also at http://www.ksi.edu/ijsk.html.

The work describes a methodology based on graph grammars (GG) to specify and model MCS. MCS consisting of Fixed Hosts (FH), Base Stations (BS) and Mobile Units (MU) can be mapped on to a graph. Although GG can represtent a system as a graph, it is unable to represent the dynamics of the system and does not give unique identity to each node. We propose Event Driven Terminal Weighted Attributed Graph Grammars (EDTWAGG) as an extension to graph grammars for representing MCS. In EDTWAGG the dynamic component of MCS is represented by Event Driven Production Rules (EDPR). Unique Identity is given to each node using Terminal weight functions and an attribute list is associated with each node to capture the changes in the system. The problem of finding the nearest base station is attempted using a Voronoi diagram of the underlying technology. EDTWAGG as described is used to integtrate performance modeling within the fuctional specification of the system, thus proving to be a useful methodology. Simulation is used to compute the performance of the system parameters, i.e. throughput and average success rate. Termin Thursday, August 28 1997, 12:00 am Ort Universitaet Wien, Inst. f.

ORT: Institut fuer Softwaretechnik und Parallele Systeme 1090 Wien, Liechtensteinstrasse 22, Seminarraum, Mezzanin Abstract Within the data parallel programming paradigm, the choice of the data distribution is often decisive for the performance attainable. The main factors controlled by the data distribution are: number and size of messages to be communicated, overlap of communication and computation, and load balancing. As those factors cannot be adjusted independently, it is apparent that the choice of ``the right'' data distribution is highly application dependent. From that arise two requirements: it is necessary for a parallel programming environment to provide for a variety of data distributions and for the possibility to redistribute data at runtime. The basic data distributions defined by HPF (block, cyclic, and block-cyclic) have found their way into numerous other parallel programming environments and have proved to be sufficient for many numerical algorithms operating on regular data structures. However, for other areas of application, e.g. image processing, a higher flexibility is required. The redistribution of data, although specified in HPF, is discouraged because of its potentially very high communication effort. Nevertheless, redistribution can often lead to better performance especially when applications are built from library functions having differing prefered data distribution. In these cases, the potential performance loss due to unsuitable data distribution often outweighs the cost of a data redistribution. In parallel image processing, this situation is encountered when high-level functions are applied after low-level image preprocessing has taken place. The nearest neighbor data dependencies of low-level functions call for block-type distributions, whereas more complex distributions are required for the global data dependencies in higher levels. In the literature, data redistribution is often considered independent from the underlying communication network. While this allows to control the number and size of messages, it imposes limitations to the optimization of node and edge congestion. In this talk, data distributions stemming from bit and linear permutations are introduced. These distributions cover a subset of the basic data distributions defined by HPF. The focus of the talk will be on algorithms for the efficient redistribution of bit and linear data distributions. The algorithms presented are designed to minimize node and edge congestion assuming a de Bruijn communication network.

ORT: Institut fuer Softwaretechnik und Parallele Systeme 1090 Wien, Liechtensteinstrasse 22, Seminarraum, Mezzanin Abstract Programming in shared memory systems is commonly considered to be simpler than in message passing. However, in most cases the performance of message passing programs is superior to the one of shared memory programs. The main reasons for performance degradation on shared memory systems include maintenance of consistency, barrier synchronization, and communication redundancy. The VOTE system provides virtual shared memory within the sequential consistency model and allows using of less strict consistency models, in order to increase efficiency. In the far end, it allows the use of message passing by means of built-in functions. We introduce an analytical performance prediction approach that assumes unknown machine size and models some of the most crucial performance parameters of the VOTE system, including number of page faults, communication and barrier synchronization time. Our method enables detecting of performance bottlenecks and performance tuning of the VOTE system and its applications. Experiments with small kernels demonstrate the accuracy of our predictions and encourages further research in the field.

Most of you are finishing the PADS98 paper submission these minutes. In an attempt of simplifying the paper handling process, PADS98 has decide to use the WIMPE WWW-based paper administration tool. This requires that you register (besides sending it via email) your paper at http://www.ani.univie.ac.at/~pads98 For the few of you, who have already sent their paper via email, please do also register it via the WIMPE systems! (the email-ed version will serve as a potential backup ;-) ) As a reward for helping to establish the WIMPE system as the future PADS paper management tool, we can extend the deadline for paper registration (Oct 10) until October 16 (firm!!) If you do not plan to submit a paper, please DO IN ANY CASE REGISTER AS A REFEREE! Again at http://www.ani.univie.ac.at/~pads98 Many thanks and best regards A.

Vienna has 1.8 million inhabitants -- a metropolis with an imperial past, it is now a center of commerce with dynamic flair, a focal point in a new Europe. Vienna is easily accessible, offering an abundance of cultural highlights and culinary delights as well as exquisite shopping opportunities. Vienna is the central city of the land, home to many important persons, and, coincidentally, the place where all fledgling adventurers start. It must be passed through to get from the eastern ocean shore to the Grimwall which comprises the western border of the land. The main landmarks of Vienna consist of St. Stephan's Cathedral, Mallin's Arena, and the world famous Bazaar. The city is also home to many visitors and houses the most famous Inn in the land, Otto's Inn. SCOPE The main focus of Euro PDS'98 will be parallel and distributed computing and systems viewed from the three perspectives of architecture and networking, software systems and applications.

With the advent of parallel processing computers and high-speed networks, the two issues have become closely related. Both design and evaluation methods must consider the relationships between the occurrence of errors/failures and their consequent impact on performance. This symposium is intended to bring together researchers in the two areas with emphasis on integrating theory and practice. Relating analytical techniques to simulations, actual measurements, and experiments will be the broad theme of the symposium. Research relating to hardware and software issues in parallel and distributed systems and networks will be emphasized. The topics include but are not restricted to: Analytical/Simulation/Measurement Techniques and Fault Injection for Performance/Dependability and Performability applied to Software/Hardware Systems Real-Time Systems Communication Systems Distributed Systems Parallel and Clustered Systems INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS The paper (not more than 20 pages, double-spaced, including figures) should be submitted in electronic form (Postscript format) to: Professor Robert Geist Computer Science Dept.

The detailed responsibilities are summarized as follows: 1. Workshop-like Setting ------------------------ A HICSS minitrack consists of two or four 90-minute sessions conducted in a workshop-like setting. Each session consists of three papers; the papers are allotted thirty minutes for presentation and questions. The last session should include a forum which typically is a lively, open dialogue on the issues raised in the presentations. You are to solicit manuscripts, have them refereed, collaborate with the Track Coordinator in determining which manuscripts are to be accepted, structure the sessions, introduce the speakers in your sessions, and act as the moderator of the forum. 2. Solicit Manuscripts for the Minitrack ---------------------------------------- After your minitrack has been approved by your Track Coordinator, you are encouraged to distribute the Unified Call for Papers and Referees and place it on appropriate electronic bulletin boards. This call will be prepared by your track chairman and cover all minitracks in the Software Technology Track. You should solicit high-quality manuscripts from people who are known to do excellent work in the field. We recommend you contact potential authors and referees to describe the overall objectives of the conference and the minitrack and solicit their ideas, a manuscript, or a commitment to referee. Each manuscript should be 22-25 type written, double-spaced pages in length. Do not accept submissions that are significantly shorter or longer than this. The material must contain original results and not have been submitted elsewhere while it is being evaluated for acceptance to HICSS. Manuscripts that have already appeared in publication are not to be con- sidered for this conference. 3. Acquire Referees Who Will Critically Review the Submitted Manuscripts ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Quality refereeing is essential to ensure the technical credibility of HICSS. Each manuscript should be stringently reviewed by a number of qualified people who are actively working in the topics dealt with in the paper. You are responsible for having each manuscript submitted to you reviewed by at least five people in addition to yourself. The author should only be given reviews that are technically substantive. If you wish to submit a paper to your own minitrack, six copies should be sent to the Track Chairman who will administer the refereeing process. Do not use authors of manuscripts as referees as this potentially places them in a conflict of interest situation. HICSS does not have "invited" manuscripts; all submissions go through a rigorous peer refereeing process. 4. Accept Manuscripts for the Minitrack --------------------------------------- A full-day minitrack should accept nine papers. A half-day minitrack should accept five. To ensure excellent accepted papers, typically more than two to three times the number of papers needed must actually be solicited. Many papers will not meet our quality standards (i.e., will not make it through the refereeing process) and some authors may not be able to fulfill their initial commitment and complete the paper for you. If nine technically solid papers do not survive the refereeing process, the full-day minitrack can be changed to a half-day minitrack. 5. Re-publication of the Manuscripts ------------------------------------ We encourage you to work with an Editor-in-Chief of a professional society periodical to use your accepted papers as the basis of a special issue of the publication. Such an arrangement encourages quality submission and requires good refereeing standards. Enter into such an agreement as soon as possible. 6. Write an Introduction to the Minitrack for the Proceedings ------------------------------------------------------------- After the authors have been notified of the acceptance of the final version of their manuscript, you are to write a three to four-page introduction to the minitrack for inclusion in the conference proceedings. It should not be an overview of abstracts of the papers, but should introduce the reader to the important problems that exist in the area. 7. Select the Best Paper Candidate from the Manuscripts ------------------------------------------------------- Within ten days after you have selected the manuscripts for inclusion in your minitrack, your candidate best paper selections must be forwarded to the Track Coordinator. If you have your own manuscript accepted in your minitrack, make your selection excluding your own work. An external committee will make the selection for the minitrack, considering your manuscript along with the candidates you have provided. ----------------------------------End------------------------------------ From Markus.Seidl@univie.ac.at Tue Dec 2 11:31:29 1997 Received: from mailbox.univie.ac.at by admin.risc.uni-linz.ac.at with SMTP id AA00744 (5.67b8/IDA-1.5 for ); Tue, 2 Dec 1997 12:36:00 +0100 Received: from karneades (karneades.ani.univie.ac.at [131.130.32.209]) by mailbox.univie.ac.at (8.8.4/8.8.4) with SMTP id MAA37898; Tue, 2 Dec 1997 12:35:54 +0100 Message-Id: <3.0.1.32.19971202123129.00956870@mailbox.univie.ac.at> X-Sender: a4431maz@mailbox.univie.ac.at X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.1 (32) Date: Tue, 02 Dec 1997 12:31:29 +0100 To: ocg-info@ocg.or.at, informatik@ifs.univie.ac.at, acpc-l@risc.uni-linz.ac.at, profs@vmars.tuwien.ac.at, assis@vmars.tuwien.ac.at, hermann.jeram@datakom.at, prh@adv.magwien.gv.at From: Markus Seidl Subject: Vortrag: 9.12.1997 - Cooperative Work: Zum Design kooperationsunterstuetzender Systeme am Beispiel architektonischen Entwerfens und Planens Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Einladung zum Vortrag Cooperative Work: Zum Design kooperationsunterstuetzender Systeme am Beispiel architektonischen Entwerfens und Planens=20 Ao.

ORT: Institut fuer Softwaretechnik und Parallele Systeme 1090 Wien, Liechtensteinstrasse 22, Seminarraum, Mezzanin Abstract Massively Parallel Processor systems provide the required computational power to solve most large scale High Performance Computing applications. Machines with physically distributed memory allow a cost-effective way to achieve this performance, however, these systems are very difficult to program and tune. In a distributed-memory organization each processor has direct access to its local memory, and indirect access to the remote memories of other processors. But the cost of accessing a local memory location can be more than one order of magnitude faster than accessing a remote memory location. In these systems, the choice of a good data distribution strategy can dramatically improve performance, although different parts of the data distribution problem have been proved to be NP-complete. The selection of an optimal data placement depends on the program structure, the program's data sizes, the compiler capabilities, and some characteristics of the target machine. In addition, there is often a trade-off between minimizing interprocessor data movement and load balancing on processors. Automatic data distribution tools can assist the programmer in the selection of a good data layout strategy. These use to be source-to-source tools which annotate the original program with data distribution directives. Crucial aspects such as data movement, parallelism, and load balance have to be taken into consideration in a unified way to efficiently solve the data distribution problem. In this talk, our proposal oriented to provide an optimal solution to the data distribution problem will be presented. The solution provided is optimal for a given problem size and architectura, and according to our cost and compilation model. The applications considered for parallelization are usually regular problems, in which data structures are dense arrays. The data mapping capabilities provided by the tool includes alignment of the arrays, one or two-dimensional distribution with BLOCK or CYCLIC fashion, a set of remapping actions to be performed between phases if profitable, plus the associated parallelization strategy. The effects of control flow statements between phases are taken into account in order to improve the accuracy of the model. The novelty of the approach resides in handling all stages of the data distribution problem, that traditionally have been treated in several independent phases, in a single step, and providing an optimal solution.

Hanxleden Daimler-Benz AG, Berlin ZEIT: Montag, 12. 1. 1998, 17 Uhr c.t. ORT: Institut fuer Softwaretechnik und Parallele Systeme 1090 Wien, Liechtensteinstrasse 22, Seminarraum, Mezzanin Abstract Eingebettete Systeme sind Computer, die gemeinhin nicht als solche erkennbar sind: Telefone, Autos, Flugzeuge, Waschmaschinen. Ihre Bedeutung f|r die Elektronikindustrie ist erheblich; |ber 70% aller 32 Bit-Systeme sind eingebettet, Tendenz steigend. F|r den Entwurf eingebetteter Systeme stehen eine Vielzahl von Formalismen und Werkzeugen z.B. aus dem VLSI-Bereich zur Verf|gung, die ein z|giges Entwickeln der Systemhardware erlauben. Ein Problem bleibt jedoch das Schreiben eingebetteter Software: dank hoher Anforderungen bez|glich Geschwindigkeit und Kompaktheit, komplizierter Zielarchitekturen und mangelhafter Compiler ist Assembler immer noch die erste Wahl. Besondere Anforderungen stellt die Entwicklung {\em responsiver Systeme}, welche f|r sicherheitskritische Anwendungen eingesetzt werden und dabei Echtzeitanforderungen gen|gen m|ssen. In diesem Vortrag werde ich zundchst anhand eines Anwendungsbeispiels aus dem Automobilbereich einen \berblick |ber verschiedene Aspekte der Entwurfs eingebetteter/responsiver Systeme geben; Themen sind Rapid Prototyping, Hardware/Software-Codesign, Synchrone Sprachen und Statecharts. Anschlie_end werde ich versuchen, besonders auf die Herausforderungen und Chancen aus Sicht des Compilerentwicklers einzugehen; als Stichworte seien Autocodegenerierung, Retargetability und Code Selection genannt.

A. Kemmerer (USA) - Computer, Network, and WWW Security Invitation to the talk A look at Computer, Network, and WWW Security =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D Professor Richard A. Kemmerer Department of Computer Science University of California Santa Barbara, USA Wednesday, March 25, 1998, 11.00 am s.t. TU Wien, Informatik-H=F6rsaal, Treitlstra=DFe 3, 1040 Wien Abstract: As more business activities are being automated and an increasing number of computers are being used to store vital and sensitive information the need for secure computer systems becomes more apparent. This need is even more apparent as the systems and applications are being distributed and access is via an insecure network. Secure systems and networks can be obtained only through systematic development; they can not be achieved through haphazard ad hoc methods. This talk introduces some known threats to computer security, categorizes the threats, and analyzes protection mechanisms and techniques for countering the threats. It also looks at network security technologies and different approaches to secure networking, such as secure protocols, firewalls, and the use of cryptography. It also introduces proposals for secure web browsing; introducing known flaws and fixes, the Java sandboxing approach, code-signing, and the use of smart cards for secure web transactions. The talk presents both the strengths and weaknesses of each approach. Biography: Richard Kemmerer, a world-renowned authority on computer security, is a Professor and past Chair of the Department of Computer Science at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

Computersprachen ZEIT: Montag, 11. 5. 1998, 17 Uhr c.t. ORT: Institut fuer Softwaretechnik und Parallele Systeme 1090 Wien, Liechtensteinstrasse 22, Seminarraum, Mezzanin Abstract Crucial for the efficiency of a JavaVM are a good just-in-time compiler, an efficient object and class layout, a fast run time type check and a low overhead monitor implementation. In this talk we will discuss all topics with focus on just-in-time compilation. Conventional compilers are designed for producing highly optimized code without paying much attention to compile time. The design goals of Java just-in-time compilers are different: minimize the sum of run time and compile time. For many application programs this results in compilers which have to produce fast code at the smallest possible compile time. In this talk we present a very fast algorithm for translating JavaVM byte code to high quality machine code for RISC processors. The algorithm is linear time in practice. It comprises three passes: basic block determination, stack analysis and register preallocation, final register allocation and machine code generation. This algorithm replaces an older one in the CACAO JavaVM implementation reducing the compile time by a factor of five and producing equally fast machine code. The CACAO system generates machine code for all methods of the javac compiler and its library methods in less than 80 milliseconds. There exist implementations of JavaVM which show a factor of 30 difference in run time due to the overhead of synchronization. In this talk we describe an efficient implementation of monitors for Java as used in the CACAO just-in-time compiler. With this implementation the thread overhead is less than 40\% for typical application programs and can be completely eliminated for some applications. We also give the implementation details of the new exception handling scheme in CACAO. The new approach reduces the size of the generated native code by a half and allows null pointers to be checked by hardware. By using these techniques, the CACAO system has become the fastest JavaVM implementation for the Alpha processor. Biography: Dr. Andreas Krall is an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science at Technische Universität Wien in Vienna, Austria. His research interests include implementation of object oriented languages, compiler back ends, computer architecture and implementation of logic programming languages. He leads the CACAO project (a JavaVM just-in-time compiler) and has developed the Vienna Abstract Machine (an abstract machine for Prolog).

This successful series of workshops started with the Austrian-Hungarian Workshops on Transputer Applications held in Sopron (1992) and in Budapest (1994). Based on these traditions but widening the scope of the workshop we decided to organise the next workshop under a new name reflecting the wider scope and with a subtitle that will change from workshop to workshop and will focus to some special topics. DAPSYS'96 held in Miskolc had the subtitle: Environments and Tools. The current workshop will focus on the educational aspects of parallel and distributed processing as well as the programming tools provided for parallel and distributed programming. Some special sessions will be organised in these focused areas: Tempus sessions and a Winpar ESPRIT session. ERCIM is a network of prestigious research institutes of Europe working also in the field of distributed and parallel processing. In order to introduce the work of these institutes we organise an ERCIM session as well. Selected papers of DAPSYS'96 have been published in a special issue (1997 February) of Parallel Computing. Best papers of DAPSYS'98 are also expected to be published in a prestigious journal of the corresponding research field. SCOPE: DAPSYS'98 is expected to be a major event for researchers and teachers to consider present and future topics in distributed and parallel systems. Papers presenting educational methods, original research, new concepts and results of international projects are being sought. Papers describing teaching experiments and programming tools for distributed and parallel systems are especially welcomed. Typical, but not exclusive, topics include: * distributed operating systems * parallel architectures * parallel/distributed languages * computational models * parallel/distributed algorithms * parallelization * parallel/distributed databases * testing and debugging * performance analysis * visualisation * parallel/distributed I/O * load balancing SUBMISSION OF PAPERS: Contributors are invited to submit a full paper not exceeding 10 double-spaced pages in English to the program committee chair at: Dr. Gabriele Kotsis Univ. of Vienna Email: dapsys98@ani.univie.ac.at The title page should contain a 100-word abstract and five specific keywords.

The advent of High Performance Computer Systems (ranging from massively parallel computers to clusters of PC's) has indeed led to substantial time savings in solution processes. Moreover, large-sized problems have become tractable to a much higher extent, and hence the development of solution methods for these large-scale problems can be based on an interaction between theory and experimentation. The special issue of Parallel Computing aims to collect state-of-the-art papers addressing new developments in the broad field on the borderline of High Performance Computing and Operations Research. _________________________________________________________________ CALL FOR PAPERS Authors are invited to submit manuscripts of at most 20 pages demonstrating original unpublished research in all areas showing the interplay of High Performance Computing and Operations Research, including the development of experimental or commercial systems. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Approximate methods - Heuristics - Metaheuristics - Stochastics - others * Exact methods - Dynamic programming - Branch and bound - others * Libraries and tools - Easy-to-use packages that allow for the solution of broad classes of problems * Applications - Vehicle routing - Fleet assignment - Crew scheduling - Quadratic assignment - Job/Flow/Open-shop scheduling - others _________________________________________________________________ SUBMISSION Contributions should be submitted electronically to parallel-computing@cs.few.eur.nl.

ORT: Institut fuer Softwaretechnik und Parallele Systeme 1090 Wien, Liechtensteinstrasse 22,=20 Seminarraum, Mezzanin Abstract Debugging is one of the most important aspects of software development. Thi= s is equally true for parallel programming. However, since debuggers are one of the most complex tools to build, research activities in this field are often limited to user interface considerations. LRR-TUM is one of the few European research groups that also deals with the system level aspects of parallel debugging. The talk will be divided into three parts: The first part will give an introduction to and a motivation for parallel debuggers. It will present some of the problems these tools have to handle and gives an overview of current activities in this field. In the second part, we will present the parallel debugger DETOP that has been developed at LRR-TUM. The most advanced version of this debugger is available for the multithreaded programming model PARIX running on Parsytec computers, however, a port to the PVM and MPI programming libraries on NOWs is currently done. The talk will introduce the basic requirements we tried to meet and presents the most important features of DETOP. When we started to port our set of on-line tools to PVM on NOWs, we realize= d that having a standard interface for monitoring and manipulating parallel programs could greatly reduce the cost of porting and would also have other benefits, such as tool interoperability and uniformity across target platfo= rms. This lead to the start of the OMIS (On-line Monitoring Interface Specificat= ion) project, which will be the topic of the last part of the talk. We will pres= ent the concepts of OMIS, explain how we try to achieve the flexibility and efficiency required for such an interface, illustrate its use, and present = an overview on its implementation.

Juni 1998, 17.00 s.t. Sitzungssaal der Oesterreichischen Computer Gesellschaft A-1010 Wien, Wollzeile 1-3, 1. Stock Abstract Many future collaborative environments targeted to facilitate group communications will need to provide, among other services, a high level of security and a high degree of control over the communications. Today's communication infrastructures are either inadequate to address these new requirements or too expensive for wide exploitation by small groups or associations. We introduce the notion of "supranet" as a possible solution to these problems. Supranets are virtual networks, private to a group, that are built on top of a relatively inexpensive physical internetwork such as the Internet by means of an appropriate toolkit. We discuss the motivations behind the design of supranets and how supranets can offer their users the means to achieve the desired security levels and to control internal traffic according to a user-defined set of rules. ============================================================================ Institut fuer Angewandte Informatik und Informationssysteme Abteilung fuer Advanced Computer Engineering Universiaet Wien, Lenaugasse 2/8, A-1080 Wien Tel: +43-1-4086366-16 Fax: +43-1-4080450 WWW: http://www.ani.univie.ac.at ______________________________________________________ Dipl.-Ing.

One of its objectives is the organisation of two open complementary Advanced Schools concerning Discrete Event Dynamic Systems (DEDS), focusing one on performance modelling and evaluation, and the other on modelling and verification. Each school can be attended independently. The intended audience consists of people interested in both the theoretical and practical aspects of modelling for evaluation and verification of DEDS. Concepts, methods and computer supported tools will allow us to provide answers to questions like the following: o Could a token-ring protocol lose or duplicate some messages? o How to increase the throughput of a large insurance company by a work flow analysis? o Is it possible to check whether a flexible manufacturing system may have some of its robots blocked? o How should a production line be designed in order to achieve a given production rate? o What should be the size of the buffers of ATM switches so that the cell loss probability remains below a given value? o Do the verification and the performance evaluation need completely different formalisms? o What kind of approaches are available to deal with large size and complex DEDS? ************************************************************************* PARTICIPATION Both Advanced Schools will take place at the Residence of the University of Zaragoza in Jaca (in the Pyrenees mountains), where International Summer Courses are being organised since the beginning of this century ---mostly on humanistic studies. Participation is limited to 40 students per School. The registration fee and full board lodging is: o 100.000 pesetas for one school (10 days) and o 170.000 pesetas for both schools (20 days). A small number of grants will be available. Those wishing to apply for a grant should send a letter of explanation, a curriculum vitae and a letter of recommendation from a major advisor before June 1st, 1998. Participants in each school will receive copies of the lecture transparencies and the draft of a book covering the topics of the corresponding school in detail. Full lodging will be provided (in double rooms) at the Residence, where all the classes will also take place. A transport service Zaragoza-Jaca and return will also be provided. Interesting cultural and sightseeing excursions are planned. Laboratories will be organized throughout the schools to provide the students with practical experience on the application of the formalisms to concrete examples and case studies. Several computer tools will be available. ************************************************************************* Performance Models for Discrete Event Systems with Synchronizations: Formalisms and Analysis Techniques. September 3-11, 1998. Jaca, Spain. Scientific Directors: G. Balbo and M. Silva ------------------------------------------------------------- Aims and Scope Discrete Event Dynamic Systems (DEDS) are based on a view of dynamic systems where discrete states and events play a fundamental role. DEDS are becoming increasingly interesting as the importance of automation and control grows in modern technology. Application domains like manufacturing, transport or telecommunication use extensively concepts and techniques from DEDS. Design optimization, scheduling (performance control), monitoring, implementation (possibly fault-tolerant),... are among the critical issues that require the use of modelling and of qualitative and quantitative analysis techniques. Formal methods for the specification, verification and performance evaluation of DEDS are becoming more and more important as systems increase in size and complexity. The aim of this Advanced School is to present a comprehensive Petri Net-based framework to model and analyze the performance of complex distributed systems in which the interplay of concurrency and cooperation among agents is crucial at the global system level and in which queueing, service, routing, and synchronization (e.g. rendez-vous, capacity constraints,...) are equally important. Other formalisms, like Queueing Networks and Stochastic Process Algebras, will be also considered and discussed from the point of view of their relations with Stochastic Petri Nets. The interleaving of qualitative and quantitative analysis of complex DEDS will be stressed. The most important aspects of net based performance modelling and analysis techniques will be presented to train the participants in the effective use of formal models in existing and possible future application domains. ------------------------------------------------------------- Intended Audience People interested in performance evaluation of DEDS through modelling. The material and the lectures of the school will be organized in such a way that the following two, complementary, type of audience can profit from the school: o people with a background in performance evaluation willing to deepen their knowledge on performance modelling through a Petri net based approach to the problem, o people with a background in untimed Petri Net theory (or alternative formalisms, like Process Algebras) willing to explore the use of the formalism for performance evaluation. Special introductory lectures will be given to provide a common basic background for all the participants. ------------------------------------------------------------- Topics and Lecturers 1. Formalisms (Queueing Networks, Untimed Petri Nets, Stochastic Petri Nets, Untimed and Stochastic Process Algebras,...); 2. Modelling techniques and methods: (running) examples and case studies. 3. Properties and Qualitative Analysis (basic logical properties, Place-Transition and Colored net correctness analysis, performance indices and qualitative properties); 4. Discrete-Event Simulation (centralized schemas, synchronous and asynchronous parallel/distributed simulation); 5. Markov Chain Generation (bounded Markovian models, one-place unbounded Markovian models, non-Markovian models); 6. Net-driven Markov Chain generation (decomposition and tensor algebra approach, symmetries and quasi-symmetries, combining decomposition and aggregation, periodic ordering); 7. Net-driven Analytical Methods (PNs and product forms, linear programming and performance bounds); 8.

A Petri Net Based Approach to Modelling, Verification and Implementation. September 14-22, 1998. Jaca, Spain. Scientific Directors: C. Girault and R. Valk ------------------------------------------------------------- Aims and Scope Formal methods for the specification and verification of hardware and software systems are becoming more and more important as systems increase in size and complexity. The aim of the school is to illustrate progress in formal methods, based on the Petri net formalism, through a collection of examples arising from Flexible Manufacturing, Telecommunication and Workflow Management Systems. The scope of the school covers several of the main phases of the life cycle of the design and implementation of a system: specification, model checking techniques for verification, analysis of properties, code generation, and execution of models. The presentation describes these techniques and their tool support. It identifies and explains fundamental concepts like composition, abstraction, and reusable models; model verification and verification of properties. Practical work with tools will play an important role. ------------------------------------------------------------- Intended Audience People interested in the application of Petri nets to systems engineering. The material and the lectures of the school will be organized in such a way that the following two groups of people can benefit from this course: * People interested in the application of Petri nets. The course starts with a general introduction to Petri nets and focuses on the application of Petri nets to three application domains: workflow management, telecommunication and flexible manufacturing. * People interested in the relations between theory and practical use of Petri nets. The course addresses fundamental modeling problems and analysis techniques. State-of-the-art analysis techniques are presented for people interested in the verification of complex systems. The course will bring together practitioners, researchers and PhD students interested in Petri nets. Cases and concrete projects are used to create a stimulating atmosphere. People attending the course will be trained in the use of several computer tools. ------------------------------------------------------------- Topics 1. Basic Concepts of Petri nets (place transition nets, high level nets, examples). 2. Modelling techniques and methods: (running) examples and case studies (from Flexible Manufacturing, Telecommunication, Workflow Systems,...). 3. Tools for Petri nets (presentations and examples). 4. High Level Petri nets (syntactical aspects, parametrization). 5. Properties, Analysis and Verification (safeness and fairness properties,...; structural properties and subclasses of nets). 6. Petri nets in specific application domains (Manufacturing systems, workflow systems, telecommunication systems). 7. Advanced topics in Analysis and Verification (State space based and structural methods). The lecturers are well known experts in modelling and verification of DEDS. They are involved in theoretical and applied research and are also collaborating with industry. They include: W. v.d. Aalst (Eindhoven), J.M. Colom (Zaragoza), P. Estrailler (Paris), J. Ezpeleta (Zaragoza), B. Farwer (Hamburg), C. Girault (Paris), S. Haddad (Paris), J.M. Ili (Paris), F. Kordon (Paris), D. Poitrenaud (Paris), M.O. Stehr (Hamburg), E. Teruel (Zaragoza), R. Valk (Hamburg), M. Voorhoeve (Eindhoven). ------------------------------------------------------------- Parts of the course 1. Introduction to Petri Nets 2. Applications 1. WorkFlow Management Systems 2. Flexible Manufacturing Systems 3. Formal Design of Telecommunication Services 3. Advanced topics in Analysis and Verification 1. Prototyping 2. State Space Methods 3. Structural Methods 4. Deductive Methods 4. Tools 1. Introduction to Petri Nets In the past years an increasing demand for precise and graphical modelling techniques has become visible in almost all fields of computer applications from industry, commerce and research. This is due to growing requirements for efficient and reliable methods on the one hand and increased power of computer tools on the other. It is thus not surprising that Petri nets have become a common technique for the specification, validation and performance evaluation of systems, since they provide an intuitive approach, formal techniques and graphical description methods. In the introduction (of the summer school) participants will be trained into all these features, starting from a very basic level up to rather sophisticated skills. This will be possible by means of an integrated approach, combining lectures, classroom exercises and computer sessions with Petri net tools. The introduction will start with a general and intuitive notion of Petri nets and the general principles behind them. Then, an informal tutorial will introduce the basic models of place/transition nets and high level nets, leading to different formal representations to be used in computer tools. For applications to systems analysis and verification, powerful mathematical methods, like linear programming, will be employed to verify correctness properties like safeness, liveness and reachability. After the first two days the participant will be prepared to enter the lessons on particular applications. 2. Applications 2.1 WorkFlow Management Systems The phenomenon of workflow management will have a tremendous impact on the next generation of information systems. As the workflow paradigm continues to infiltrate organizations that need to cope with complex administrative processes, the WFMS will become a fundamental building block. Therefore, the subject workflow management is of utmost importance for people involved in the (re)design of administrative processes or the development of systems to support these processes. The Petri net formalism provides a firm theoretical basis for the modeling and analysis of workflow processes. The course addresses the following subjects: workflow management concepts, architecture of workflow management systems, mapping workflow concepts onto Petri nets, organizational modeling, verification, and performance analysis of workflows. 2.2 Flexible Manufacturing Systems The design and control of Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS) is a very complex task: many different elements have to be combined, and many different aspects must be taken into account. This complexity has raised the need of use of formal models in order to represent and validate the system. Petri nets are a family of models well suited for the domain: easy representation of concurrency and competition relations, application of different desing strategies, ability to generate code in an automatic way, a well defined semantics applicable for the qualitative and quantitative analysis and a nice graphical user interface. The aim of the course is to show how Petri nets can be used for the modeling and analysis of Flexible Manufacturing Systems (focusing mainly in qualitative aspects). 2.3 Formal Design of Telecommunication Services Formal modelling is a key for verification and evaluation of telecommunication systems. Our application concerns a Multi-Agent System of contract monitoring. The application acts in the context of the electronic market. We use a new object-based formalism, which integrates the principles of the ODP standard. We transform these high-level formalisms into the uniform high level Petri net formalism while retaining the original system semantics. The CPN-AMI tools will support the modelling and the analysis of this application. 3. Advanced topics in Analysis and Verification Systems will inevitably grow in scale and functionality. Therefore, the likelihood of subtle errors is also increasing. A first goal of system engineering is to take advantage of the investment in modelling to generate a prototype of the system, and to have an implementation consistent with the validated model. A second goal is to provide mathematically based methods and tools for verifying such systems. There exists a diversity of verification methods developed for Petri nets. This part of the school aims to clarify the bases for choosing an adequate method for each problem, by discussing issues involved in the design and the application of each method: 1) Net models that the method is able to verify; 2) Kinds of properties to check; 3) Families of methods; 4) The interplay of different methods. 3.1 Prototyping Emphasis will be put on the presentation and discussion of a way to produce a distributed application from a Petri Net specification. The produced application is not a Petri net simulation and can be integrated in a complex execution environment. 3.2 State Space Methods Efficient methods for the construction of the state space are presented in this tract. Several verification methods working on the state space are analyzed and compared. 3.3 Structural Methods The use of the net structure for formal verification of net properties is presented. Structural reduction of nets, linear algebra based techniques, and graph based techniques for net subclasses are the main topics. 3.4 Deductive Methods In this tract the use of logics for formal verification of net properties is presented. Linear Logic enriched by algebraic specifications leads the way to rewriting logic semantics for algebraic Petri nets. For verification of temporal properties of high-level nets a UNITY-style logic is employed. 4. Tools CPN-AMI is a Petri Net based CASE environment that will be used in the practical tasks and exercises of the school. It offers a set of services to ease the work of designers who specify a system by means of the Petri net theory and benefit from it. It relies on the Macao graph Editor which also behaves as the User Interface of CPN-AMI. This software tool runs on Sparc/SunOS (4.1.4 or later) Sparc/Solaris (2.4 or later) and UltraSparc/Solaris (2.5.1 or later). CPN-AMI is a project initiated in 1987 by Professor C.Girault in the team "Systmes rpartis et coopratifs", in the Laboratoire d'Informatiques de Paris 6 (Previously MASI) in the Universit Pierre & Marie Curie, Paris (France). The following tools will be used during the course on Workflow Management Systems to demonstrate the application of Petri-net-based software to this domain and which preferably could be used by the students for doing assignments: * Woflan (Eindhoven University of Technology) for the verification of workflow processes made with COSA of PROTOS. * COSA BPR-toolkit (Software Ley) The design part of one of the leading European workflow products. * PROTOS (Pallas Athena) An easy-to-use BPR tool based on Petri nets. * ExSpect (Bakkenist) To simulate workflow processes made with COSA of PROTOS. ------------------------------------------------------------- Detailed Programme of the Systems Engineering Summer School Day Session Title Professors Hours Monday 14th a.m. Models and toy examples (lecture) R.

Situated in the center of the Pyrenees mountains, on the plateau on the southern bank of the Aragon River, just south of the French border, Jaca is close to the "Ordesa National Park" (the oldest protected natural park in Spain, with a surface area of about 2,200ha.) and several 3000 meters high mountains, like "Monte Perdido". Of ancient origin, the city was captured by the Romans in 194 BC and surrounded by walls, which, with medieval additions, still partly stand. In 716 it was taken by the Moors and, under the name of Dyaka, was one of the principal cities of the region governed from Sarakosta (modern Zaragoza). Retaken by the Christians in 760, Jaca was declared a "city" by King Ramiro I of Aragon (1035-63) and was the first capital of kingdom of Aragon. Jaca has notable landmarks that include the 11th-century cathedral; the Citadel (Ciudadela), begun in 1593 and in a state of perfect preservation; and the town hall in Plateresque style (1544). The Torre del Reloj ("Clock Tower") is the permanent site of the Comunidad de Trabajo de los Pirineos, a groupement of three French Regions (Aquitaine, Languedoc-Roussillon et Midi-Pyrenees ), four Spanish Comunidades Autonomas (Aragon, Catalunya, Navarra y Pais Vasco) and the state of Andorra. In odd-numbered years, Jaca holds the International Folklore Festival of the Pyrenees, which takes place around the first week of August. Apart from folklore groups from the French-Spanish Pyrenees and from different Spanish provinces, the most outstanding folklore groups from many countries of the five continents participate, which is why it has been called the Folklore Olympics. In Jaca it is possible to go ice-skating in the Palacio de Hielo. Jaca's economy is based primarily on agricultural trade and tourism. Pop. is around 12,000. ************************************************************************* --- [[ Post messages and summary of replies: PetriNets@daimi.aau.dk ]] [[ The moderator's address: PetriNets-owner@daimi.aau.dk ]] [[ To (un)subscribe: PetriNets-request@daimi.aau.dk ]] [[ World Wide Web URL: http://www.daimi.aau.dk/PetriNets/pnl/ ]] ----- End Included Message ----- From gabi@ani.univie.ac.at Sun Jul 5 12:02:35 1998 Received: from ani.univie.ac.at (heraklit.ani.univie.ac.at) by admin.risc.uni-linz.ac.at with SMTP id AA07374 (5.67b8/IDA-1.5 for ); Sun, 5 Jul 1998 14:10:48 +0200 Received: from poseidon.ani.univie.ac.at ([131.130.32.136]) by ani.univie.ac.at with SMTP id AA07141 (5.65c8/IDA-1.4.4 for ); Sun, 5 Jul 1998 14:06:48 +0200 Received: from archimedes.univie.ac.at by poseidon.ani.univie.ac.at (5.x/SMI-4.1) id AA22827; Sun, 5 Jul 1998 14:09:30 +0200 Received: by archimedes.univie.ac.at (SMI-8.6/SMI-SVR4) id OAA04417; Sun, 5 Jul 1998 14:02:35 +0200 Date: Sun, 5 Jul 1998 14:02:35 +0200 From: gabi@poseidon.ani.univie.ac.at (Gabriele Kotsis) Message-Id: <199807051202.OAA04417@archimedes.univie.ac.at> To: ocg-info@ocg.or.at, profs@cs.tuwien.ac.at, assis@cs.tuwien.ac.at, informatik@ifs.univie.ac.at, acpc-l@risc.uni-linz.ac.at Subject: IPDS98 - Call for Participation Cc: ap@iit.unict.it X-Sun-Charset: US-ASCII X-Charset: ASCII X-Char-Esc: 29 ---------------------------------------------------------------- IPDS '98 IEEE International Computer Performance and Dependability Symposium Durham, NC -- Sept. 7-9, 1998 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Conference Registration: See web site: http://www.acsu.buffalo.edu/~shambhu/ipdspage.html Early registration is in effect BEFORE 7/31/98. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Conference Site Regal University Hotel 2800 Campus Walk Durham, NC 27705-4479 Tel: 919-383-8575 Fax: 919-383-8495 Reservations: 800-633-5379 (Hotel direct) Ask for IPDS'98 rate ($84 / $99) BEFORE 8/14/98. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Monday, September 7, 1998 8:15 - 8:45 Continental Breakfast 8:45 - 9:00 Opening Remarks * Kishor Trivedi, IPDS '98 General Chair * Robert Geist, Guenter Haring, Program Co-Chairs 9:00 - 10:00 Invited Session * Performance Modeling of Computer and Communication Systems Ed Coffman, Lucent Technologies 10:00 - 10:30 Break Poster Session with authors, Conf Rooms 602 & 604, 2nd Floor 10:30 - 12:00 Software Reliability Chair: Mladen Vouk, North Carolina State University * Fine Grained Software Rejuvenation Models Andrea Bobbio and Matteo Sereno * An Analytic Approach to Architecture-Based Software Reliability Prediction S.S.

Starting Date: late Summer 1998 Duration and further conditions negotiable. Project Synopsis In order to efficiently handle multimedia applications across networks in general, and through the air interface in particular, appropriate network capacity management mechanisms are necessary. Network capacity planning is the practice of anticipating the future needs of networked users, and designing and managing the network resources accordingly. Two key issues play a dominating role, first the characterisation of the type and quality of service a user expects from the network, and second, the characterisation of the type and quantity of load a user generates into the network. The goal of this EC funded research project is to develop network system and network traffic models based upon profiles of user behaviour. The study will establish insight on how new multimedia and network computing technologies (like e.g. Java, CORBA, VRML) will influence network performance, and maybe alter user behaviour. The mapping and implications of QoS parameters at various system levels (network-perceived QoS, user-perceived QoS) will be investigated. The means for network model evaluation are large-scale discrete event simulations. The simulation results will be compared with measurement results from a test-bed to verify the simulation models. Investigations will encompass the characteristics of Low-Earth-Orbit (LEO) and Geostationary-Orbit (GEO) satellite constellations, yielding modular satellite network models. The user behaviour and application characteristic models will then be integrated in order to carry out simulations to verify that the application receives the level of service it requires while efficiently using the capacity of the air interface.

J. Watson Research Center ZEIT: Freitag, 14. 8. 1998, 14.00 Uhr c.t. ORT: Institut fuer Softwaretechnik und Parallele Systeme 1090 Wien, Liechtensteinstrasse 22, Seminarraum, Mezzanin Abstract The goal of the Jalapeno project at IBM T. J. Watson Research Center is to push the envelope of Java Virtual Machine (JVM) technology. In particular, to develop a flexible infrastructure for experimenting with and building scalable high-performance Java servers to be run on Shared-memory Multi-Processors (SMPs). Our design thrust is to get something working as early as possible then to optimize pieces that are observed to be performance bottlenecks. Our initial target platform is the IBM PowerPC. The Jalapeno JVM is "purer-that-pure" Java. All internal data-structures are Java objects. Native methods in Sun's JDK are reimplemented in Java ("no native code" TM) as they are needed. This design choice brings with it several advantages as well as "research opportunities". Obvious benefits are those of using a modern object-oriented language for developing large-scale system software, and insights into the generation of high-performance code for such a system. Novel use of the reflection and introspection capabilities of Java allowed early construction of debuggers and a JVM "boot image" builder (all written in Java). And, although we are unwilling to sacrifice performance for portability, by isolating system dependent functionality, the choice of using Java should facilitate porting to other architectures. Jalapeno does not interpret bytecodes, instead "fast" compilers translate them directly to machine code. Here, the term "fast" is used in three technical senses: 1) fast development, 2) fast code generation and 3) fast code execution, leading to three separate research efforts. The first, a base-line compiler, provided us with a basis for understanding the interaction of user Java programs and of the JVM itself, for experimenting with differing algorithms for garbage collection, multi-threading etc, and a tool for debugging (both user code and our other compilers). This compiler mimics Sun's stack-based Java VM specification. It is slow and the compiled code barely keeps pace with the JDK interpreter. A second effort, which will take greater advantage of the PowerPC's registers, is underway to improve both generation and execution times. The third compiler effort aims at dynamically producing highly optimized code for methods (or blocks) that are observed at runtime to be bottlenecks. *Participants of the Java Tools Jalapeno project include: Bowen Alpern, Dick Attanasio, John Barton, Philippe Charles, Jong-Deok Choi, Tony Cocchi, Susan Flynn-Hummel, Chris Laffra, Derek Lieber, Mark Mergen, Ton Anh Ngo, Vivek Sarkar, Janice Shepherd, David Shields, Steve Smith, Harini Srinivasan, Micheal Travers, and John Whaley.

Mobile agents, and mobile code more generally, can be viewed as the next technical step beyond distributed and parallel computing. Mobile agents are motivated by the fact that they hold promise for solving several distributed computing problems. By moving code to data, the movement of large datasets can be eliminated if the required results are easy to compute and small relative to the original dataset. This capability addresses performance in networked computing in a way than MPI and other paradigms can not. Additionally, mobile agents are typically not compiled but interpreted or executed under a virtual machine, such as for TCL and Java agents. This allows new types of heterogeneous computing to be deployed. Perhaps most importantly, mobile agents allow new types of asynchronous, heterogeneous simulations to be contemplated and designed. To this end, we introduce the concept of a "data and simulation cloud" which is a distributed collection of dynamically changing data and computing resources. Simulations can join and leave this cloud, contributing new information sources and using available datasets in dynamic, nondeterministic ways. Mobile agents make such simulations feasible and efficient by allowing programs to migrate to network locations that contain the data resources without predefining the relationships between programs at compile time. This talk will present the basic technologies underlying mobile agents, focusing on a specific implementation, D'Agents (see http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~agent/). Several key technical challenges in developing a mobile code system include security, efficiency, naming conventions, and mobility management. The D'Agent solutions to these problems will be presented.

However, in the Panda project, we have found that a careful analysis of I/O bottlenecks, plus a willingness to "think outside the box", can lead to parallel I/O performance very close to the peak limits imposed by a platform's system hardware and software. In this talk, we describe the basic approach we have taken to parallel I/O, known as server-directed I/O. We present performance results for reading and writing large multidimensional arrays on traditional and cluster supercomputers, and discuss the factors that affect I/O performance in those environments. As time permits, we will also present an overview of our approach to automated tuning of our parallel I/O library, Panda, and discuss the impact on parallel I/O of the need to migrate data to and from a supercom- puter.

Thanks to a variety of interfaces the user can easily perform scientific computing tasks without having any computing resource installed on his/her computer. There are many research issues involved in the NetSolve system, including fault-tolerance, load balancing, user-interface design, computational servers, virtual libraries, and network based computing. As the project matures, several promising extensions and applications of NetSolve will emerge. In this talk, we provide an overview of the project and examine some of the extensions being developed for NetSolve: An interface to the Condor system, an interface to the ScaLAPACK parallel library, a bridge with the Ninf system, and an integration of NetSolve and ImageVision.
