ABSTRACTS:
- -------

Should be *anonymous* (i.e., they should contain no personal data or
explicit self-references) and consist of up to 700 words, together
with examples and references.

Because abstract forwarding to referees will be done by e-mail
exclusively, the following are the possible formats of attachments, in
*descending* order of preference:

 (Plain Text) > PDF > Postscript > (La)TeX > Word for Windows '97

We regret to say that submissions in formats other than those listed
above will not be accepted.

In cases when there is no need to use special (e.g., phonetic) fonts,
we strongly encourage PLAIN TEXT submissions. If data involving
diacritics are quoted, please omit the diacritics unless they are
essential for the proper interpretation of the proposal -- in such
cases, use ASCII characters to mark them in some consistent way.

Should the electronic version of the abstract require special fonts,
please attach them as well. (We strongly discourage this practice
though, and reserve the right to ask for a resubmission in a different
format.)

Any (La)TeX should be self-contained, i.e., all external styles
(packages) should be enclosed.

Only one submission per person and one joint submission will be
considered.

Please note: do NOT send abstracts on diskettes. We will accept
*e-mail* submissions *exclusively*.


IMPORTANT: At the beginning of your email, in the plain text part of
 it, please supply the following information:

- name, title,
- title of the paper,
- affiliation,
- email address,
- snail mail address.


Unless you send the abstract as attachment, we request that you add
several blank lines between the personal information and the abstract
proper, to facilitate anonymous review.


ADDRESSES:
- -------

NOTE: ONLY *E-MAIL* SUBMISSIONS WILL BE CONSIDERED
