> USENIX, the UNIX and Advanced Computing Systems professional and
> technical organization, is a not-for-profit association dedicated to
>   *  fostering innovation and communicating research and 
> technological developments,
>   *  sharing ideas and experience, relevant to UNIX, UNIX-related
> and advanced computing systems
>   *  providing a forum for the exercise of critical thought and
> airing of technical issues.
> 
> Founded in 1975, the Association sponsors two annual technical
> conferences, a once-a-year vendor exhibition, and frequent
> symposia and workshops addressing special interest topics, 
> such as C++, Mach, systems administration, and distributed/multi-
> processor sytems.   USENIX publishes proceedings of its meetings, 
> a bi-monthly newsletter ;login:, a refereed technical quarterly, 
> Computing Systems, and is expanding its publishing role with
> a book series on advanced computing systems.  The Association
> also actively participates in and reports on the activities of
> various ANSI, IEEE and ISO standards efforts.
