Papers

Most of the papers available here can be downloaded either as PS-files or as PDF-files. PS files seem to be much less portable in general than PDF files, so if you have trouble printing or viewing the PS-version, please try the PDF format. For some of the papers, there are versions available in two paper-formats: letter (US) and A4 (the rest of the world). There is also an abstract for each paper.
