THEMES
Methods and applications of estimating equations for the analysis of
correlated data in social, economic and bio-medical sciences.

INTRODUCTION
The concept of correlated data is intended in a broad sense. In the
definition are included spatial, temporal or other kind of correlation
schemes. In the very last years there has been a growing interest in
modeling such data, and a lot of models are essentially based on the scheme
of the estimating functions. The immediate consequence has been an
impressive growth of applications using such methods appeared in the
specialized journals.

AIM
The workshop is aimed at giving an opportunity to people working in the
applied sciences and statisticians and methodologists to meet and discuss
together on this approach to correlated data.

ORGANIZATION
Contributions should focus on
Applications of estimating equations in the analysis of correlated data.
Case studies are particularly welcome
Methodological contributions with a potential interest for application
A nominal participation fee (approximately 30 US$) is established for people
not presenting their work. People whose paper are accepted for oral
presentation will have the travel and accommodation expenses re-funded by
the local university.

CALL FOR PAPERS
Oral presentations and a poster session will be organized. People working in
the applied field are particularly encouraged to present their ideas.
Ideally, we would like to have 12-15 papers suitable for oral presentation.
Each author should submit an abstract to the organizing committee. After
acceptance, the author is supposed to send an extended abstract of up to 10
pages for publication in the proceeding volume, which has to be ready before
the workshop.

TIMETABLE
Deadline for abstract submission 31 may 1999
Acceptance of contributions 1 July 1999
Deadline for extended abstract 1 October 1999
