ANNUALINDEX

Volume 15,1982

This index covers all technical items that appeared in this periodicalduring 1982, and items from prior years that were commented upon orcorrected in 1982. The index is divided into an Author Index and aSubject Index, both arranged alphabetically.The AuthorIndex contains the primary entry for each item; this entry

is listed under the name of the first author and includes coauthor names,title, location of the item, and notice of corrections and comments if any.Cross-references are given from each coauthor name to the name of the

GOMPL-fR

corresponding first author. The location of the item is specified by thejournal name (abbreviated), year, month, and inclusive pages.

The Subject Index contains several entries for each item, eachconsisting of a subject heading, modifying phrase(s), first author's name,and enough information to locate the item. For coauthors, title,comments, and corrections if any, etc., it is necessary to refer to theprimary entry in the Author Index.
