               On January 22, 1987, Usenix will present a technical
          session focusing on performance and UNIX* systems.  We
          solicit papers for presentation; topics might include but
          are not limited to the following:

          o+    performance data gathering, presentation and analysis

          o+    performance aspects of real time systems

          o+    case studies

          o+    performance prediction methodologies

          o+    techniques for improving system performance

          o+    meeting performance constraints

          o+    program performance tools (e.g., profilers, monitors,
               optimizers)

          o+    measuring and predicting network performance

          o+    multiprocessor and/or distributed systems

          as applied to UNIX systems.

               Papers or extended abstracts are due by September 15, 1986.
          Notification of acceptance will be given by October 15, and
