                        Purdue Compiler Construction Tool Set (PCCTS)

                                                                  or


        "Dr. T's Traveling Parsing Revival and Beer Tasting Festival"




                                                    July 24,25 1995
                                Silicon Graphics, Mtn View, CA USA
                                                    [Silicon Valley]


                                [Limited To 22 Non-SGI Participants]


This communication is a third call for participation. The workshop
will provide tutorials, "practice & experience" presentations,
discussions about the future direction of PCCTS, and finally an
opportunity for PCCTS users to exchange ideas.


We encourage the submission of short (<=5 page) "position" papers
and/or "experience" presentations (<=30 min). You do not have to
submit a paper to attend. For more information contact Terence Parr
at parrt@parr-research.com.

SCOPE / WHO WOULD BE INTERESTED
                Users of PCCTS, users of other language tools, persons interested
                in learning more about language tools, persons interested purely
                in the predicated-LL(k) parsing strategy of the ANTLR parser
                generator, instructors interested in using PCCTS for their
                compiler courses (there are already a fair number of courses being
                taught with PCCTS), and businesses interested in evaluating PCCTS
                or other language tools.


WHY We would like to more actively support the growing PCCTS
                community, to promote the exchange of ideas between users, to
                discuss the future directions of the tools.


                Also, a printed copy of the forthcoming PCCTS book will be
                given to participants; the published version won't be available
                for a few months after the workshop.


PROCEEDINGS
                We will be printing copies of the notes, presentations,
                position papers prior to the workshop. We also hope to make
                electronic copies of the proceedings available to other PCCTS
                users.


FEE $90 per person total for both days. This fee includes two
lunches and refreshments plus a preprint of the book and
binder with proceedings.


REFRESHMENTS
                We anticipate serving refreshments to promote informal
                discussions at meal times rather than forcing attendees to go
                off site.


AFTER-SESSION ENTERTAINMENT
                We hope to provide suggestions and organized "field trips" to
                the many sites (e.g., brew pubs) in the San Francisco Bay area.
