Use appendices to substantiate your major technical results. Authors with no access to electronic submissions may submit 9 copies to the following address:
Authors who have severely limited access to reproduction facilities may submit a single copy of their abstract.

Ron Book Prize for Best Student PaperThis award will be given to the best paper written solely by one or more students. An abstract is eligible if all authors are full-time students at the time of submission. This should be indicated in the submission registration message or cover letter. The program committee may decline to make the award or may split it among several papers. Conference AbstractsIn conjunction with the conference, contributed short research abstracts will be collected and will be made available a few days before the conference. Attendance at the conference is not required to submit an abstract. For more details, contact the abstracts editor: William Gasarch; Dept. of Computer Science; Univ. of Maryland; College Park, MD 20742 USA; Email: gasarch@cs.umd.edu. Y2K PreparationWe expect that possible disruptions in e-mail caused by software problems on Jan. 1, 2000, will have stabilized by the submission deadline. The electronic submissions and program committee software has not been fully tested for Y2K. We will take every precaution to make sure every submitted paper is properly reviewed. The Conference SiteThe conference will be in the Auditorium of Banca Toscana in Florence. Florence is one of the most beautiful cities in the world with many historical monuments and world-class collections of art, including the most famous sculpture by Michelangelo Buonarroti: his ``David''. Florence is the capital of Tuscany, a land renowned for its scenic landscape and containing other important tourist destinations (Siena, Pisa, Lucca, Volterra, etc.) Several other cities in Italy are easily accessible from Florence. In particular, Rome is only 2 hours away by train. |
