	         CALL FOR PAPERS 

	     L'INGENIEUR ET LES FRACTALES

	  	FRACTALS IN ENGINEERING

          June 14-16 1999, Delft, The Netherlands 


--------------------------------------------------------------------- 

Objectives
----------

The goal of the conference is to bring together researchers working in
all areas of fractal analysis. The scope encompasses recent
theoretical advances as well as industrial applications. The first
symposia (June 3-5, 1992, and June 1-4, 1994, in Montreal, June 25-27,
1997 in Arcachon, France) were most successful in stimulating
relations between the academic and private sectors.  We hope to renew
this experience with the fourth issue held in the Netherlands.

Scope
-----	

Topics to be covered include, but are not limited to :

THEORETICAL ASPECTS :
- Dimension theory
- Multifractal Analysis
- IFS theory
- Harmonic Analysis on Fractals
- Dynamical systems
- Wavelet and Fractals
- Stochastic Analysis on Fractals

APPLICATIONS :
- Signal Processing
- Image Processing
- Finance
- Fractal-Wave Interactions
- Computer Networks Traffic Analysis
- Processes on Fractal Surfaces
- Mechanical Aspect of Fractals



Structure
---------

Two thematic sessions are scheduled per day. Each will be introduced 
by an invited lecture with a didactic approach allowing a formal
introduction for non-specialists.

Several 25-minutes periods of contributed talks will follow.
Poster sessions will be organized.
