>Subject: Call For Papers: MAPLETECH Special Issue on Industrial Mathematics
and Industrial Applications of Maple
>
>Call  for Papers:   Maple In Industry
>A Special issue of MapleTech
> 
>This is the first call for papers for a MapleTech special issue on
>Industrial Mathematics and Industrial Applications of Maple to be
>published in late 1998.  The editors will be Dr. Ayowale Ogunye
>and Mr. Thomas Casselman.
> 
>In industry, symbolic and numeric computing environments have facilitated
>the design and development of complex engineering, technological and
>scientific  systems. The synergy obtained from using a spectrum of
>computing environments, for example dedicated numeric computing
>environments like Matlab and Fortran, process simulation systems
>like Speedup, fluid visualization systems like Fluent, and
>modern general-purpose symbolic computing systems like Maple V 
>have made previously intractable and impossible computations possible.
>The resulting gains in reducing code development time, execution
>times, and more rigorous and thorough analyses cannot be over emphasized.
>
>Many universities are now creating ``industrial mathematics'' programmes.
>These programmes aim to expose students to industrial problems
>in the course of their study and to provide students with skills
>needed to tackle industrial applications.
>An important aspect of such programs is the use of computers and tools
>like Maple which are used to study and solve real problems that cannot
>feasibly be solved by hand.
>
>We are interested in hearing from engineers and scientists who are
>involved in industrial applications which use Maple with or without
>other computing environments like Matlab, Scilab, Fortran, C, Excel,
>Speedup, Spice, Fluent, etc., in their projects.
>We are interested in papers that show clear, distinct and enabling
>advantages of using Maple  in the overall computing scheme.
>Successful innovative results which use Maple for symbolic and/or
>numeric computations in industrial systems are of particular interest.
>Papers on industrial mathematics applications of Maple in education,
>and industrial applications of Maple in fields other than science
>and engineering, such as business related areas of economics, 
>econometrics, operations research, and finance, are also encouraged.
>
>All submissions will be refereed. The following guidelines will be
>important:
>
>o Does the paper discuss an  interesting application of  Maple  in an
>  industrial setting?
>o Does the paper show how Maple was useful or enabling  in the analysis
>of
>  the problem?
>o Is the Maple code in the paper easy to follow?
>o Is the paper easily understandable by other technical readers?
>
>
>Important  Deadlines
>====================
>
>March 1, 1998   Papers submitted for review by this date.
>May 1, 1998     Reviews completed and returned to the authors
>June 1, 1998     Final versions of papers due at the editors.
>
>Papers that we are unable to include in the special issue but which would
>otherwise be accepted, will be published in a regular issue of MapleTech.
>
>
>Submission Details
>==================
>
>Submission versions of papers must be either complete PostScript versions
>of papers, or Maple worksheets.  Papers must be submitted either directly
>to the editors by electronic mail, or by anonymous ftp at
>ftp.cecm.sfu.ca and put in the directory pub/MapleTech/incoming
>under the authors name.  
>Authors are requested to notify both editors of the special issue below
>of their submission.  The editors may request authors to submit
>Maple code in their paper to verify results.
>
>Final versions of papers must be in the form of Unix compatible LaTeX
>articles created using Maple V Release 3 or Release 4 using the MapleTech
>macros.  LaTeX articles should be prepared using the 10pt, two column
>format
>on 8.5 x 11 inch paper.  A page charge of \$100 per page in excess
>of 10 pages will apply.  Detailed guidelines and tools for
>preparing articles for MapleTech, as well as Latex style files
>can be obtained via anonymous ftp at ftp.cecm.sfu.ca in the directory
>pub/MapleTech at Simon Fraser University.
