                   ACM Java Grande 2000 Conference
                            June 3-5, 2000
                   Crowne Plaza Hotel, Union Square

                       Call for Participation

ACM Sigplan and the Java Grande Forum is pleased to announce the fifth 
Java Grande Conference.  The Java Grande Conference focuses on the use 
of Java in the broad area of high-performance computing; including engineering
and scientific applications, simulations, data-intensive applications, 
and other emerging application areas that exploit parallel and distributed 
computing or combine communication and computing. A day of tutorials will be 
held on the last day of the conference. The conference immediately
precedes  the JavaOne 2000 conference, which would enable the Java Grande
attendees to expose themselves to the latest in basic Java Technology. 

The Java Grande thanks Sun Microsystems and IBM for their sponsorship and
their generous support of this conference.

Complete details for the tutorial and technical program, and 
conference and hotel registration information can be found on
