If you would like to have an article appear on this page, please send a single file with zipped PowerPoint, Word, or HTML file(s)/directories to Ingvar Elle.

Because many of the conference papers have been submitted for publication in peer-reviewed journals, the full proceedings cannot be published on this web site. However, if you would like to contact conference organizers, please see the contact information in the header.

General Provisions for Conference Submissions:

Given the interest of participants, proceedings are published from all annual meetings.  However, since submission to proceedings is optional, and we also encourage all informal presentations & any half-baked ideas not intended for publication.

Manuscripts may be published on this site in the following formats, according to the author's preference*: 

  1. presentation display materials may be placed on the conference Web Site; 
  2. all submitted papers are published in non-peer-reviewed proceedings that will be distributed to participants and limited other interested parties; 
  3. given sufficient number of selected submissions, peer reviewed papers will be published as a special issue of the Journal of Mathematical Modeling and Scientific Computing. The issue will be called MATHEMATICAL AND COMPUTER METHODS IN THE MANAGEMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES - SPECIAL ISSUE ..., published under the Environment and Ecology series in the section entitled Mathematics and Computer Science in Natural Resources Management;  
    For a list of
  4. if there is a sufficient interest, we will consider publication of selected papers in journals.

The intention of publishing in a journal should be indicated at the time of submission.

*Options 3) and 4) above are mutually exclusive.
 

Peer Reviews

Most peer reviews that I administrate are conducted electronically.  Please be aware that to submit anything for such review you need to remove your name from the properties of any document you might be submitting.  Authors should set the names in document property (File menu) to either "Author" or "Anonymous" and reviewers should set it to "Reviewer #" with their appropriate Reviewer Number.  The Referees should use the Online Review Form to provide all the required information relevant to their reviews and follow with confirmation of their submission using their regular email address that is registered in our database. 

Note that for different journals the manuscript are submitted in different forms.  For example, the JMMSC requires camera ready submissions without line numbers.  Forest Science requires line numbered double spaced manuscripts with separate figures and tables.  Since the manuscripts are submitted electronically, the reviewers can change for the purpose of their review the used format to whatever they find the most effective.  For example, in MS Word to add line numbers you can edit the menus: File, Page Setup, Line numbers...   

For thorough coverage on formatting Microsoft Word documents to JMMSC standards, see help files.
