Get-Togethers 2 Dear Colleagues: Welcoming Message 2 Welcome to Snowbird for the Fourth SIAM Conference on Applications of Dynamica Systems. Organizing Committee 2 This highly interdisciplinary meeting brings together a diverse group of mathematicians Audiovisual Notice 2 scientists, and engineers, all working on dynamical systems and their applications. Th< Program Overview 3 themes were chosen to highlight those areas in which dynamical systems has recently mad, Program-at-a-Glance 4-7 exciting progress and to provide a forum for discussion of future directions. Conference Program 8-34 The response to our Call for Papers was extraordinary. As a result, the program is packed ful of fascinating sessions. Besides the 11 Invited Presentations, we have 51 Minisymposia, 3' Speaker Index 35-37 sessions of Contributed Papers, and 2 Poster Sessions. Although it was combinatoriall: Abstracts 38-130 impossible, we have tried hard to avoid conflicts. We hope you'll find this conference, and your visit to Snowbird, to be stimulating Funding Agency educational, and fun. Mary Silber and Steve Strogatz SIAM thanks the National Science Foun­ Co-Chairs, Organizing Committee dation and the Office of Naval Research for their support in conducting this con­ ference.
