_______________________________________________________
South Dakota State University and Amoco Chemical Company will host a
three day conference on Theoretical and Computational Approaches to
Interface Phenomena August 2-4 1993 at South Dakota State Univeristy
in Brookings, South Dakota. Speakers from academia and industry will
discuss topics at the forefront of this field such as modeling
catalysis, thin organic films, metals, and surfaces, surface
diffusion, metal/electrolytic solution interfaces, and interactions
with biological surfaces. The presentations will relate new software
methodologies and theoretical techniques, present comparisons between
methods or parameterization schemes, and share computational strategies.
The conference will provide ample time for participants to interact
with the speakers and talk to third party software vendors. A
reception and registraton will be held Sunday evening, August 1

Travel Information
The Brookings Airport has commercial airline commuter service from
Minneapolis operated by the G P Express Airline Company,
(605) 692-6818. Flights directly into Brookings are easy to obtain,
but they must connect through Minneapolis. If this is not convenient,
commercial air service to Sioux Falls, South Dakota is recommended.
Conveyance Vans operates a shuttle service that runs between Sioux
Falls and Brookings with 'door-to-door' service. The shuttle service
runs according to passengers' flight schedules. Conveyance Vans can
be reached at (605) 692-2236. Cars can also be rented at the Sioux
Falls airport. Flying into Brookings via Minneapolis is usually more
economical than flying into Sioux Falls and driving to Brookings by
car if your point of origin is southeast of Brookings.
