The panels provide a chance for lively interaction with experts in the
field. The first panel will explore the dynamic area of internet-based
reuse in a discussion titled "The Impact of Java on Software
Reusability." The second, titled "Reuse R&D: Is it on the Right Track?,"
will take a look at future directions and discuss where we go from
here.  The technical program includes:

Submission Guidelines
---------------------

Submit 6 copies of a regular paper (maximum 6000 words) or a concise
paper (maximum 3000 words) to the Symposium Program Chair by
October 7, 1996.  All papers, whether regular or concise,  should
clearly indicate what is new and significant about the work being
presented and should consist of material not previously published or
currently being considered for another forum.

A number of selected regular papers will be presented at a joint
session with ICSE-97 on Tuesday, May 20th, and may be published in both
proceedings of ICSE-97 and SSR-97.  Authors who would like to have their
papers considered for this purpose should indicate so specifically in the
cover page of their submission.

Each paper, regular or concise, should include a separate cover sheet
containing the title of the paper, author(s), affiliation(s), and
complete address (including phone and fax numbers and e-mail) of the
contact person.  Include also a list of up to four relevant topical
areas and indicate if you would like your paper to be considered for
the joint session with ICSE'97.

Panel and tutorial proposals must include an abstract of the topics,
an outline and, if possible, short biography of panel participants.
