Unlike in the previous workshops this time we have not
asked for
preregistration (because this information was not
really necessary)
but have set a rather late deadline for registration
and abstract
submission. A consequence was, that so far not very
many people have
officially registered but in E-mails and at conferences
people keep asking
us, when the next announcement w.r.t the "Eighth
Viennese Workshop …" will
be. So here it is. Additional Information to the Call
for Papers is:

1. We now have officially decided upon the TRAVEL
AGENCY for HOTEL
RESERVATIONS and tours:

Imperial Tours
Conference Department
Dr. Karl Lueger Ring 8
A-1014 Vienna, Austria
Tel.: (+43-1) 5356970
Fax: (+43-1) 53411202
office@imperial-tours.com
http://www.imperial-tours.com

The link for booking hotels is:
http://www.imperial-tours.com/englisch/e_anmeldung-
optimalcontrol2003.html

We recommend you to book early, since May is the best
and busiest
tourist months in Vienna, because
· it has the best weather for sightseeing (stable
and not too hot)
· the Austrian Federal Theatres and Operas are still
open (they close in
summer) · the Vienna Festival takes place (May 9 -
June 15, 2003) If you
book late you might end up in expensive hotels or in
those not close to
the center.

2. We will have several excellent INVITED SPEAKERS
which are being
organized at the moment. Some have already confirmed
that they will
give a (semi-)plenary presentation:

-> Richard Day, University of Southern California, USA -
Recursive
Programs and Games
-> Ulrich Rieder, Ulm, Germany - Stochastic Control
-> Evgenii Mishchenko, Steklov Institute, Russia -
Historical
Development of Optimal Control
-> Erik Mosekilde, Technical University of Denmark -
Chaotic
synchronization in living systems

Several others are just now being asked but have not
confirmed yet:
Benhabib, Lux, Scheinkman, etc.

4. REFUND POLICY:

A few people have asked about the procedure whereby
payment of EURO
190 is expected before people know if their abstract is
accepted.
Clearly, the E190 will be fully refunded if the
abstract is not
accepted.

Also, potential contributors should know that it is the
tradition of our
workshops that we try to have as many top presentations
as possible, but
that we also want to give younger researchers (and
those who want to talk
about unfinished work in process) a chance to get
feedback from the
audience. Thus, although refereed, contributions will
usually only be
rejected if they clearly do not fall within the scope
of the workshop of
if it is clear from the abstract, that it is nonsense.
Papers will usually
not be rejected because of lack of space.

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

5. REMINDER:
Please note that the DEADLINE FOR ABSTRACT SUBMISSION
is approaching:
December 31, 2002

Also note, that compared with the previous workshops we
have chosen a very
late deadline, and that therefore this deadline is
absolutely STRICT.
Abstracts, for which the registration fee has not been
paid by then will
not be considered any further.

Links for general information, registration, and
payment are:
