I'd like to update you on our progress. SIMAX is still a very new journal and the style of the journal is still developing. We continue to focus on the matrix research that has to do with applications to areas such as signal processing, systems and control theory, statistics, Markov chains, mathematical programming, economic and biological modeling. We encourage you to submit your articles to us, especially in those areas of unusual application. In general, our editorial board members have been successful in receiving prompt reviews of journal submissions. We are taking steps to remedy the delicate problem of delayed reviews. Our waiting time from acceptance to publication is six to nine months and it is our intention to maintain this processing time. We want you to know that every issue will contain articles of interest to each of our subscribers. Thus, as a matter of policy, we do not plan to devote more than a partial issue to any special topic. You may now submit your accepted manuscripts in Tex, LATex, and AMS-Tex. SIAM journal macros are available through Net-lib and directly from SIAM via e-mail and floppy disk. Although authors may need to spend some time making editorial changes, there are advantages in submitting your manuscripts to us in Tex. First, the author retains greater control over the final appearance of his manuscript. Second, the introduction of errors from a second keyboarding is avoided. Third, one round of proofreading is eliminated. Fourth, authors who typeset their own articles receive 100 gratis reprints. Circulation for SIMAX has increased nicely during the past year--we now have over 1100 subscriptions and we expect that number to continue to increase at a reasonable rate for the next several years. SIMAX is an affordable journal. The current subscription rate for SIAM individual members is $36 ($39 for individual members outside the United States, Canada, and Mexico). The institutional rate is $95 ($118 for institutions outside the United States, Canada, and Mexico). You can have the issues of your personal subscription to SIMAX delivered to your home or office. Institutions may order several subscriptions delivered to addresses they designate. Our academic members receive a subscription to SIMAX as a part of their membership. Of course, we encourage you to request your local library to subscribe to SIMAX. Remember, for those of you who are SIAM members, SIMAX is your journal. For those of you who are not members, please consider joining SIAM and subscribe to SIMAX at the member rate. We will always welcome your help, advice, and submissions. Sincerely, Gene Golub Managing Editor SIAM Journal on Matrix Analysis and Applications Postscripts: Please submit your manuscripts to: SIAM Publications, P.O. Box 7541, Philadelphia, PA 19101. Requests for journal macros should be sent by e-mail to Corey Gray at SIAM@WHARTON.UPENN.EDU or by mail to Corey Gray at SIAM, 117 South 17th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103-5052.
