TextFile

Appended to the end of this message you will find four files used to create
a TeX abstract for electronic submission to the American Mathematical Society.

The beginning of each file is marked by "%+++START OF FILE:xxx" where "xxx" is
the file name of that particular file.  Divide this message into the four files
and name them as indicated. The instructions in these files will describe how
to input your abstract into a file which can be submitted to the AMS, and
instructions for how to submit the file electronically.

                      AMS Electronic Abstract Submission
			       LaTeX Submissions

There are four files provided to aid you in the preparation of an AMS abstract
to be submitted in electronic form. They are:

     1).  readme.doc   --- the file you are now reading, which gives 
                           an overview of the submission process

     2).  amsabs.sty   --- the abstract documentstyle file---DO NOT
                           MAKE ANY CHANGES TO THIS FILE!!!

     3).  instruct.tex --- the LaTeX source file for documentation on using
                           the abstract documentstyle 

     4).  example.tex  --- the file containing the AMS Electronic Abstract
                           Processing Information Section (necessary for the
                           processing of your abstract) and a template for 
                           preparing an electronic abstract file.


The actual macro definitions are contained in the file, amsabs.sty. First
copy this file to your LaTeX documentstyle directory. NO changes should ever
be made to it.

The instruct.tex file should be run through LaTeX and printed to give you the
instructions for preparing an abstract to submit electronically to the
American Mathematical Society (AMS).

To type your abstract, copy the example.tex file to another file name, for
example, abstract.tex. Then edit the new file (abstract.tex) and fill in the 
necessary data pertinent to you and the abstract. Make sure the top section
(Processing Information Section) is filled in completely, or the
processing of your abstract may be delayed.

When your abstract is in its final form and ready to be sent to the AMS,
either send your abstract file (abstract.tex) via an electronic network system 
(e-mail) using the following INTERNET address:  
                                                ABS-SUBMIT@MATH.AMS.COM

or mail a diskette (IBM or Macintosh) containing your abstract.tex file to:

                        Abstracts
                        Editorial Department
                        American Mathematical Society

                        Providence, RI  02904   USA

If you have questions or problems with the electronic abstract header file,
you may contact the AMS Technical Support Group at 800-321-4AMS (321-4267)
or 401-455-4000.

\footnotetext{American Mathematical Society, August, 1990}

An electronic American Mathematical Society (AMS) abstract consists of two
main sections: the processing information section, and the text (or document)
section.  The processing information section is for AMS office use only and
will not print when the abstract file is run through \LaTeX.
The first part of the text section is the title block, printed in twelve-point
type with single line spacing and a left indentation of 1.5 inches.
The abstract body is also twelve point, but it has one-and-a-half line spacing
and no left indentation.  Before the final publication, the abstract will be
reduced to 65\%.

These type specifications are put into effect by using
\verb=\documentstyle{amsabs}= in \LaTeX. The \verb=amsabs= style sets
the width and height of the abstract block so that the total area works out to
a predetermined maximum size that has been established for AMS abstracts. 
After you run your abstract through \LaTeX, it should turn out to be one page
or less; otherwise it is too long and should be rewritten to meet the
AMS requirements.

To prepare an AMS abstract in \LaTeX, start by copying the \verb=example.tex=
file provided to a file called \verb=abstract.tex= (or whatever you want). Once
you have an \verb=abstract.tex= file, you can edit it and enter the information
for the two sections.

\subsection*{\tenbf The Processing Information Section}           

The first section in the \verb=abstract.tex= file is the processing information
section; it needs to be filled in completely.  This information is for AMS
office use only:  the percent signs at the beginning of each line are \LaTeX{}
comment markers, and will keep the information from printing when the abstract
file is run through \LaTeX.  


\subsection*{\tenbf Text or Document Section}
The contents of the title block are the author's name and address, the
title of the abstract, and an optional ``preliminary report'' remark.
The basic structure is provided in the \verb=abstract.tex= file so that
you simply need to fill in the appropriate information.  To add the
``preliminary report'' remark delete the \verb=%= sign before the
\verb=\prelim= line.

The \LaTeX{} commands \verb=\author= and \verb=\address= should be supplied in
matched pairs. If two or more authors have the same address, type them together
in a single \verb=\author= command using  \verb=\and= to separate the author
names, as explained in the \LaTeX{} manual. I.e., for three authors with one
address, type \verb=\author{Author= \verb=One= \verb=\and= \verb=Author=
\verb=Two= \verb=\and= \verb=Author= \verb=Three}= \verb=\address{Address=
\verb=of= \verb=all= \verb=three}=. Addresses can be handled in the same way,
using \verb=\and= to separate multiple addresses given for one author.

The final printed abstract will be reduced, so the initial line length
is $8 {1\over 2}$ inches. Because of the margins required on most
printers, the lines of the abstract dvi files will run off the page when
printed unless the paper is printed in ``landscape'' mode (rotated 90$^\circ$).
If you wish to print your abstract for proofing purposes, but do not
have a printer that can print ``landscape'' copy, delete the \% before
the \verb=\proofmode= command in your source file. In ``proof'' mode
\LaTeX{} will set line lengths proportional for $8{1\over 2}''\times 11''$ 
paper, so the printed abstract still must fit on one page. 
$\underline{\hbox{\bf NOTE:}}$ Line endings will {\bf *not*} be the same in 
proof mode as they will be in the final mode.  

Following are two examples of abstracts; both are shown in proof mode. The
examples are from {\em Abstracts of papers presented to the American
Mathematical Society}, October 1988, Issue 59, Volume 9, Number 5.

\maketitle

\begin{abstract}

A method is proposed for fairly charging for the use of a parallel
processor. We used the following principle: {\em A fair scheme bills
users proportionally to the average increase in execution time caused
by inserting their job into a long job list.} This charges both for
the resources used plus (or minus) the idle resources created (or
consumed).

To obtain answers, simplifications are made. Jobs are assumed to be
time-sliced into subjobs of equal length which are scheduled by the
``next-fit'' bin packing algorithm. Also assume the resources required
by the jobs are independent and identically distributed....

\maketitle

\begin{abstract}
We are concerned with the existence of solutions to systems of
quasilinear parabolic equations and the corresponding quasilinear
elliptic systems. Speaking in the roughest possible terms we employ
the properties of a convex function to control the growth of the
reaction vector field. This in turn allows the use of a scalar
comparison function to dominate the summation of the components of the
system and thereby provides a-priori bounds for the system. Classical
arguments now guarantee the existence of solutions.
