For papers with multiple authors, the speaker is shown in italics if known at press time. The conference organizers expect every speaker of a scheduled presentation to register and attend the conference. If it becomes necessary for a speaker to cancel the presentation, the speaker is expected to find an alternate presenter immediately, preferably one of the speaker's co-authors. The speaker should inform the SIAM Conference Department of any change to his/her scheduled presentation. A "no-show" or canceled presentation can cause serious inconvenience to the attendees and conference organizers.
Information regarding audiovisual needs can be found at archive.siam.org/meetings/gd97/avnotice.htm.
