CHANCE OF A LIFETIME, THIS IS AN EVENT YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO MISS!

The most outstanding UNIX and Open Systems Conference takes place
in LONDON, on 11-13 July. ON-SITE REGISTRATION is possible in the

      Royal Lancaster Hotel

      UK UNIX User Group
      Nine Kings Suite
      Lancaster Terrace

The founding fathers of the UNIX system make up the nine  current
or  former  members  of  Bell  Laboratories  speaking  at UKUUG's
Conference.  Rob Pike, Ken Thompson, Dave Presotto and  Tom  Duff
have been conducting research into a successor to the UNIX system
entitled Plan 9 from Bell Labs which will be  announced  for  the
first  time  at UKUUG's Conference.  Dennis Ritchie, Ken Thompson
and Tom Cargill will present current and future thoughts on C and
C++  and  their  associated compilers. Brian Kernighan will speak
upon the progress which has been made in the development of  pro-
gramming  environments,  languages,  tools  and  `methodologies'.
Stuart Feldman will expound on large scale  software  development
in a UNIX environment.  Andy Tanenbaum, the prolific author, will
look beyond UNIX into the 1990s.  Jon  Bentley  and  Mike  Hawley
will  entertain  us  with talks and demonstrations using pictures
and music software.  Kirk McKusick, Mike Karels and  Chris  Torek
will provide up to date information concerning Berkeley UNIX.
