From ac Thu Dec 30 15:19:54 1993 To: bloch@math.ohio-state.edu Subject: SIAM editing Status: R Here are instructions for conversion of the CARS system to be used for SIAM. This is a very basic conversion job-nothing fancy. I strongly recommend installing the CARS system again but in a SEPARATE ACCOUNT, that is, use separate accounts for separate journals (otherwise expect trouble). Note that you do not need to duplication the reviewerDB file-see instructions. Following installation, here are the required modifications. Have fun, Adam. To adapt the system to SIAM J. Control Opt, 1. Replace the file Defs.tex with the text below, and 2. Make the following changes in LetterForm.tex A. Comment out the line \def\ReviewForms{\ReviewForm \Comments \Ack} by iserting a % before it, and add the following line next to it \def\ReviewForms{} B. Comment out the line \def\footone{THE INSTITUTE OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS, INC.} by iserting a % before it, and add the following line next to it \def\footone{{}} To adapt the system to other SIAM journals, in addition to all the above 3. Make the following change in the NEW Defs.tex Change the line \def\tac{SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization} so that it reflects the Journal you have in mind. Good luck!
