The session on "System, Software and Application Development for Complex Systems" described in the forwarded message seems like a ripe opportunity for some "Ada-related" papers. Note that any such submission would also be a perfect fit for SIGAda'99 given our them focusing on real-time and distributed, and I encourage anyone interested in one to submit to both conferences. (PDPTA'99's due date of March 1 is 1.5 months earlier than SIGAda'99, so you wouldn't even have to tell PDPTA'99 about submitting to SIGAda'99.) -Hal Hart (SIGAda'99 Chair)
