Software for Parallel Computer Science.

The Third International Conference of the ACPC will take place 
at the University of Klagenfurt, Austria, Sept. 22 -25. 1996 
and is intended as a forum for both researchers and practitioners in the field.

Beside the traditional topics special emphasis should be given
