  T02  Computer Architecture
  ---------------------------

     The   Computer  Architecture  TC  is involved with reserch and
development  in  the  integrated  hardware  and  software design of
general  and  special purpose uniprocessors and parallel computers.
The  TC annually cosponsors the International Symposium on Computer
Architecture,  and with the ACM SIGARCH, it jointly administers the
Eckert-Mauchly Award for contributions to computer architecture. It
also   cosponsors   many  other  meetings  including  Frontiers  of
Massively  Parallel  Computation, Annual Supercomputing Conference,
Annual  Symposium  on  Parallel and Distributed Procesing, and many
other  workshops.  It also helps organize special issues of society
periodicals and publishes a quarterly newsletter containing meeteng
reports, calls for papers, and news announcement.


  T04  Computer Elements
  -----------------------

  -  is concerned with circuits, memories, I/O devices and systems,
and   their  interrelationships.  This  includes  such  factors  as
performance,  testing, microprogramming, software, and packaging as
they  relate  to  computer elements. VLSI technology and its system
implications are of particular interest. The TC sponsors two annual
workshops  and  one  biennial  workshop  and  provides sessions for
Comcon.


  T11  Design Automation
  ----------------------

    -  is  involved with the use of computer-oriented techniques in
all  aspects  odf  the  design process, with particular emphasis on
design   languages,   logic   synthesis,   verification  techniques
(including   digital  simulation),  manufacturing  interface  data,
graphics,  and database management. The TC sponsors the workshop on
High-Level Synthesis, cosponsors with ACM SIGDA the Annual ACM/IEEE
Design  Automation  Conference, and publishes the Design Automation
TC Newsletter four times a year in Design and Test magazine.


  T16  Microprocessors & Microcomputers
  -------------------------------------

     -  is  involved with the architecture, design, and application
of   microprocessors   and  microcomputers.  The  TC  sponsors  and
facilities technical activities accross the disciplines of computer
architectures,  programming  languages,  and  operating systems. It
cosponsors   the  ASPLOS  (Architectural  Support  for  Programming
Languages  and  Operating  Systems)  Conference,  is  active in the
standard   areas   through  its  Microprocessor  and  Microcomputer
Standards  Committee  and the Bus Architecture Standards Committee.
It also publishes a newsletter.

  T17  Microprogramming & Microarchitecture
  -----------------------------------------

     - is addresses all aspects of microprogramming and its support
tools, giving particular attention to microprogramming languages,
architectures  of microprogrammable machines emulation, simulators,
control   storage  technologies,  microprogram  design  tools,  and
application   of   microprogramming.  The  Tc  sponsors  workshops,
tutorials,  publications,  and  conferences.  In  conjunction  with
SIGMICRO, the TC publishes a quartely newsletter.

  T25  Real-Time Systems
  ----------------------

    -  addresses hardware and software issues related to the use of
computers   in  the  real-time  data  systems,  operating  systems,
processing of aacquired data, database management, process control,
data   acquisition   networks,   industrial   systems,   and   data
communications   in   both   distributed   and  parallel  computinf
environments.  it  organizes  and  sponsors  the  real-Time systems
symposium and other wokshops on real-time systems. The TC publishes
a quarterly newsletter.
  
  T28  Simulation
  ----------------

   -  promotes  all aspects of reserch, development, methodologies,
and  applicaations  of  mathemetical  modelling,  and  analog and
digital computer simulation. The TC organizes technical sessions at
Computer Society conferences and cosponsors the annual Symposium on
the   Simulation   of   Computer  Networks  and  Winter  Simulation
Conference.  It  publishes  a  newsletter, which includes technical
papers,  tutorials  on  modeling  and simulation, book reviews, and
abstarcts of current reserach.

  T30  Test Technology
  --------------------
  
  
  T31  VLSI
  ---------

    -  addresses  the interaction between the semiconductor process
and  system design on VLSI, Emphasis falls on integratng the design,
fabrication,  application  and  business  aspects of VLSI from both
hardware  and software points of view. The TC sponsors conferences,
special sessions, and workshops for the Computer Society.
