		  CALL FOR PARTICIPATION AND ADVANCE PROGRAM

	      2000 International Symposium on Memory Management
				    (ISMM)
				 Sponsored by
				 ACM SIGPLAN

			   REGAL MINNEAPOLIS HOTEL
		 Minneapolis, Minnesota, October 15-16, 2000
		      (in conjunction with OOPSLA 2000)

		   http://www.cs.ukc.ac.uk/events/ismm2000

ISMM is a forum for research in memory management, in all its diversity. The
call for papers listed areas of interest including (but not limited to):
garbage collection, dynamic storage allocation, storage management
implementation techniques and their interactions with languages and operating
systems, and empirical studies of programs' memory allocation and referencing
behavior.

ISMM 2000 continues the tradition of the successful conference series
established with the International Work-shops on Memory Management held in
1992 (St. Malo, France) and 1995 (Kinross, Scotland), and the inaugural ISMM
in 1998 (Vancouver, Canada). Proceedings of the IWMM conferences are available
from Springer-Verlag (Lec-ture Notes in Computer Science no. 637 and no. 986),
while the ISMM'98 proceedings were published by the Association for Computing
Machinery ( ACM). The 2000 Symposium Proceedings are also published by the
ACM.

REGISTRATION: Please register online via the ISMM 2000 web-site
(http://www.cs.ukc.ac.uk/events/ismm2000). Registration includes lunches,
entry to the OOPSLA tutorial/workshop reception and the conference dinner on
Sunday, and entry to the OOPSLA welcome reception on Monday. Information on
accomodation arrangements, and the conference location at the Regal
Minneapolis Hotel, is available via the OOPSLA web-site
(http://www.oopsla.org).
