<P>These papers represent <EM>work to date at the time of publication</EM> and may not necessarily form the basis for the authors’ final conclusions relating to the topic. It is likely, however, that papers will appear in some form in a journal or in conference proceedings after publication in this Series. Details of final journal/conference publication venues for these papers (where applicable) may be found through the <A HREF="http://divcom.otago.ac.nz/infosci/pubs/publicationsplash.htm" TARGET="main">Staff Publications</A> pages.</P>
<P><SPAN CLASS="note">Starting in 2001, the Series is no longer published in hard copy form, so the papers listed on this page are available in downloadable form <EM>only</EM></SPAN>. Hard copies of papers published prior to 2001 may still be available; please email <A HREF="mailto:dps@infoscience.otago.ac.nz">dps@infoscience.otago.ac.nz</A> with any queries about papers published in the Series.</P>
