            San Diego Workshop on Volume Visualization
                December 10-11, 1990, San Diego, CA
                         Registration Form


Program
The workshop program will closely  follow  that  of  the  successful
Chapel Hill Workshop on Volume Visualization  held in May, 1989, and
will combine technical papers and demonstrations of  new  techniques
for visualizing  data defined in volumes.  There will be one or more
panels and/or poster sessions scheduled.  The workshop will be  held
near  the  San Diego Supercomputer Center at the new Price Center on
the campus of the University of California, San Diego.

Note: There will be a reception and demonstration session on Sunday,
December 9, from 6pm to 9pm for attendees arriving early.

The registration fee is $250 if paid before  August  31,  1990,  and
$275  after  that.  The workshop is limited to 225 registrants.  The
final deadline for registration is November 30,  1990,  although  we
