                   Workshop "OSF Distributed Computing Environment"

           The Technical Committee 3 of the German "Gesellschaft fuer
           Informatik" (Association of Computer Science) organizes a
           workshop focussing on the emerging    OSF Distributed Computing
           Environment (DCE) . OSF DCE is going to become an industry
           standard for open distributed computing and is available here
           and now. The major goal of this workshop is to bring together
           people interested in DCE and related technology. The workshop is
           both for practitioners and for researchers who wish to to
           present their own work based on DCE, who want to gain insights
           into DCE functionality, or who are concerned with related
           efforts towards open distributed computing. Major topics of
           interest are:

           - Distributed applications on top of DCE
           - DCE technology components: foundations, evaluations,
             comparisons, new concepts etc.
             (especially concerning RPC, Threads, Directory, Security,
              Time, File System etc.)
           - Relationship with other standardization efforts (e.g. ISO/OSI,
             OMG/CORBA, ODP, UI/Atlas)
           - DCE and object-oriented programming
           - DCE solutions for heterogeneous PC/workstation environments
           - Multimedia and CSCW applications based on DCE
           - DCE system porting
           - Implementation-level or conceptual extensions of DCE
           - Practical and theoretical limits of DCE
           - Other topics related to DCE within the broader context of
             distributed computing
