Submission Guidelines 
Individual Papers should be 20 minutes long with an additional 10 minutes
for discussion.
Posters are for one-on-one discussion of work in progress. Posters are
especially effective for presenting data visually (in charts, graphs, or
tables). Narrative discussion is best presented in bullet format. A block of
time will be designated when presenters are available to discuss their
posters. Upon acceptance, presenters will receive guidelines for their
posters.
For a Poster or a Paper, send a copy of an abstract, no more than 250 words
long, typed on a single page. In the upper left-hand corner, place the
submitter's name, address, institutional affiliation, phone and fax numbers,
and e-mail address.
Colloquium Proposals are invited for 1 ½ hour blocks. Colloquium organizers
may divide their time as they choose, but time should be allocated for
opening and closing remarks, presentations, discussants (if included) and
extended audience response. Colloquium organizers serve as the liaison
between participants in their colloquium and the Site Committee, and are
responsible for communication among these participants. A colloquium
proposal abstract should include the following:
One copy of a single page statement from the organizer explaining the theme
of the colloquium, how the individual presentations relate to one another,
and how the time will be allocated. Include organizer's name, institutional
affiliation, address, phone and fax numbers, and e-mail address in the upper
left-hand corner.
One copy of a 250 word abstract typed on a single page for each individual
presentation. In the upper left-hand corner place the presenter's name,
institutional affiliation, address, phone and fax numbers, and e-mail
address.
Proposal abstracts can be submitted by mailing in the information or by
