invited in three formats: individual papers, posters and <BR>colloquia. Each
paper presentation should be scheduled for 25 minutes, including <BR>time
for discussion. <BR><BR>Proposals for Individual Papers or Posters:
<BR>Proposals for individual papers or posters consist of one page plain
text <BR>abstract, including examples and references (max. 3000 characters).
The abstract <BR>should include enough details to allow reviewers to judge
the scientific merits <BR>of the proposal. Abstracts for paper/poster
presentations will be double-blind <BR>peer-reviewed. Authors will be asked
to specify a format (paper presentation or <BR>poster session) at the time
the work is submitted. <BR><BR>Proposals for Colloquia: <BR>Colloquia are
collections of four paper presentations which relate to a narrowly
<BR>defined topic of interest. They are submitted as a group, individually
reviewed <BR>and offered in 120 min. time blocks. Proposals for colloquia
consist of one page <BR>plain text abstract, including examples and
references (max. 3000 characters), <BR>describing the colloquium as a whole.
In addition, for each of the papers to be <BR>presented one page plain text
abstract with author's name, professional <BR>affiliation, and email address
must be included. Sufficient details should be <BR>provided to allow peer
reviewers to judge the scientific merit of the proposal. <BR>A chair for the
session must also be identified. Instead of a fourth speaker, <BR>time can
be reserved for discussion lead by a specified discussant. The person
<BR>submitting a proposal for a colloquium has the charge of securing the
permission <BR>and co-operation of all participants before the proposal is
submitted. <BR><BR>Please submit your proposal online at <A
href="http://www.let.uu.nl/isb7/"
target=_blank>http://www.let.uu.nl/isb7/</A> <BR>For all submissions holds:
one presentation as a first author and one as a <BR>co-author.

with online submission, please do not hesitate to contact <BR>our conference
