and   Software  for   Interval/Self-validating  Methods,   SC-languages,
Interval  Data  Analysis  and   Identification,  Teaching  of   Interval
Mathematics,  Interval/Self-validating   Methods  in  Automatic Control,
other  applications   and  interdisciplinary research.

ABSTRACTS AND  PAPERS:  Abstracts  will  be  published  in  a collection
of   abstracts  of  the  congress.  However,  SELECTED  PAPERS  WILL  BE
PUBLISHED IN   THE   SPECIAL   ISSUE   OF   THE   INTERNATIONAL  JOURNAL

CONTRIBUTED PAPERS/POSTER PRESENTATIONS:
The program will also include contributed paper sessions
(20-minute presentation), posters, and industrial exhibits.
Authors are invited to submit to the CSAM'93 Program Committee a
one page abstract and indicate if they prefer an oral or poster
session. Authors may suggest the title(s) of appropriate
session(s) for their paper. Manuscripts of papers presented at the
