Contributions are sought in the general areas of theoretical and
computational modeling, identification, order reduction, monitoring
and control of distributed chemical processes. Priority will be given
to papers presenting novel theoretical and/or computational results on
order reduction and control of nonlinear distributed parameter
systems. Papers presenting applications of distributed parameter
systems theory to experimental or industrial systems are strongly
encouraged. The contribution of the paper to the advancement of the
state-of-the-art should be clearly stated in the abstract.
                
A one-page abstract and a completed proposal-to-present (PTP) form
must be submitted electronically via the AIChE web page by May 1, 2000
(this is a hard deadline). Further submission details can be found at
http://www.aiche.org/annual/. Authors notification of acceptance will
be made by June 1, 2000.

The CAST 10b programming committee considers it unacceptable to
submit the same abstract to more than one session; therefore, such
multiple submissions may be disqualified. When sessions are
oversubscribed, the committee will move papers to more appropriate
sessions and actively lobby for additional sessions from the
Meeting Program Chair.
