*****************************************************************************


The Maple Summer Workshop and Symposium is an annual forum for
Maple enthusiasts from all fields to exchange experiences and
ideas on the application of the MAPLE COMPUTER ALGEBRA SYSTEM.  

MSWS 93 will consist of two major components :  
a short course with separate streams for new
users and more seasoned users, and an applications symposium
consisting of, invited talks from leading personalities, panel
discussions, workshops, open forums, and paper presentations from
researchers, educators, and other  innovative Maple users from
all fields.

We invite all members of the Maple community to submit a brief
(300 word) abstract outlining original and innovative
applications of Maple.  Users from all fields are encouraged to
participate.  We especially encourage papers from the following
areas:

-    engineering and applied sciences (all disciplines)
-    physical sciences (physics, chemistry, etc.)
-    biological sciences (biology, medicine, environmental, etc.)
-    social sciences (economics, psychology, etc.)
-    pure and applied mathematics
-    computer science
-    education (all levels)
-    Maple in industry and business

Abstracts will be reviewed and preliminary acceptances will be
sent to those authors with promising proposals who can then
proceed to submit a full paper of 5000 words or less.  Final
acceptances will be based on the full paper.  All accepted papers
will be published in a proceedings and be distributed at MSWS 93. 
Authors of accepted papers are expected to deliver a 20-25 minute
presentation at the conference.  The presentor of the paper is
also expected to be a registered participant of MSWS 93.


Contents of papers

All papers should attempt to address the question "How has Maple
changed the way in which problems are solved in my field?".  In
one extreme, the paper could present a novel or innovative Maple-
influenced solution to a particular problem in your area.  In the
other extreme, the paper could address the question from a
broader, more philosophical perspective. We welcome both kinds of
papers as well as those that have elements of the two extremes.  


Incentives for Authors

-    One author from all accepted full papers will receive a 25%
     discount on registration fees for MSWS 93.  
-    The name of the principal author from all abstracts received
     before the deadline will be entered into a draw for the
     following prizes:
     -    first prize :  a licensed copy of Maple V for DOS or
          Macintosh (author's choice), a complete Maple reference
          set, and a Maple gift pack
     -    second prize :  a complete Maple reference set, an a
          Maple gift pack
     -    a Maple gift pack
