VIRTUAL PRELIMINARY PROCEEDINGS
For access to the MGNet Virtual Proceedings,
click here.
Also available are the
1993
and
1995
virtual proceedings.
For submission of a paper to the MGNet Virtual Proceedings:
Instead of having to cram your paper into a few pages, you have as many pages
as you wish, preferably in an easy to read, large font (11 point is
easier to read than 10 point).
Please submit a PostScript file using the
directions
for a MGNet preprint submission. Then send
e-mail
with a message that you submitted a pre-proceedings paper.
HARDCOPY PRELIMINARY PROCEEDINGS
In order to guarantee a spot on the program, each speaker will be asked
to submit an abstract by Jan. 15, 1998. Up until March 8, 1998, the
abstract may be replaced by an extended abstract of no more than 7
pages. All abstracts will be combined into a prelimary proceedings
and distributed to the conference participants. This must be in
postscript or ASCII.
SPECIAL JOURNAL ISSUE
Speakers will be urged to submit a paper to a special issue of SIAM
Journal of Scientific Computing. These papers will be subjected to a
rigorous refereeing process under the supervision of the program
committee. Papers will be due no later than May 15, 1998. Authors are urged
to limit the length of papers to 20 pages.
STUDENT PAPER Competition
Travel and lodging assistance will be awarded to student
authors judged to have the best research papers. Papers
containing original research due mainly to the student must be
received before Dec. 15, 1997. They must be singly authored and
may be no more than 10 pages in length. Sending only
an abstract is unacceptable. A panel of judges will determine
the best papers. Authors of the best papers will
be given a travel stipend, free lodging, and registration, and
each will be expected to present their paper in one of the regular
conference sessions. A number of other students who
participate in the competiton will be offered local expenses.
We hope to support 10 or more students,
but this is contingent on obtaining funding.
Student papers should be submitted as ps files by
e-mail.
If this is not possible, a hard copy of the paper may
be submitted by regular post to:
