Travel Support for Seventh International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems, Sept. 21-25, 1987, Berlin, West Germany

分布式计算系统国际会议（ICDCS）是由电气和电子工程师协会的计算机协会（IEEE）主办的。在过去的四年里，ICDCS一直在美国举行。今年，第七届ICDCS将于1987年9月21日至25日在西德柏林国际会议中心举行。20名美国科学家和工程师将参加这次会议。他们的出席将提高与欧洲、澳大利亚、非洲和亚洲研究人员的信息交流与合作水平。这次会议是一个里程碑，它审视了国际层面的技术现状，概述了分布式计算系统在各个方面（理论、设计和实现）的未来技术发展。会议论文集将由IEEE计算机学会出版，并选出特别有价值和兴趣的论文将被考虑在IEEE主要期刊上发表。这是一个非常重要的会议，应该有美国科学家和工程师参加。这些学科领域与基金会支持的科学研究特别相关。

The International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems (ICDCS) is sponsored by the Computer Society of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, IEEE. For the last four years, the ICDCS has been held in the United States. This year the Seventh ICDCS will be held at the International Congress Center in Berlin, West Germany, during September 21-25, 1987. Twenty American Scientist and Engineers will participate in the Conference. Their attendance will increase the level of information exchange and cooperation with European, Australian, African, and Asian researchers. The Conference is a milestone for examining the state of the art at the international level and outlining the future technical developments in all aspects (theory, design, and implementation) of distributed computing systems. The Conference Proceedings will be published by the Computer Society of the IEEE and selected papers of exceptional merit and interest will be considered for publication in the major IEEE journals. This is a very important conference which should have the participation of American Scientist and Engineers. The subject areas are especially relevant to scientific research supported by the Foundation.
