6.  e-mail address

7.  the paper’s title

8.  an abstract – 200 words maximum

Submission deadline for abstracts is MAY 1, 2013. Full papers will be reviewed on a rolling basis, since travel plans for some need to be made well in advance. Submissions of complete papers will be refereed as soon as they are submitted. Those who submit abstracts will receive preliminary approval of the abstract, but full acceptance depends upon the complete text, due by JUNE 1, 2013.

No more than one submission by the same author will be considered.

Email as an attachment a copy of your paper and/or abstract in rich text format to:
