2. Abstracts submitted should be no longer than 200-500 words and should contain a description of the completed work or work in progress.  In a minute or less a reader should be able to learn the rationale behind the study, general approach to the problem, pertinent results, and important conclusions or new questions.  Economy of words is important throughout any paper, but especially in an abstract.  However, use complete sentences and do not sacrifice readability for brevity. Keep it concise.
   
   
3. Abstracts must be received by Universal Technology Corporation (UTC) no later than Friday, July 27, 2007.

Letters of acceptance or denial will be emailed to the primary author (submitter) of the submitted abstract, by Friday, August 24, 2007.
   
   
4. Authors will be responsible for obtaining all necessary approvals and releases from the appropriate personnel.
