rmat: "Mat. Res. Soc. Symp. Proc. 55 193 (1985)."] A Revolutionary Principle Rapid publication has been a matter of keenest concern, for authors and readers alike, in connection with the PROCEEDINGS. This can best be achieved (often with significant cost savings) through an "appointments" schedule with printers that guarantees a manuscript will arrive on a certain date. Both authors and editors, therefore, are asked to recognize a revolutionary principle—real deadlines! The Society's commitment to timeliness and cost effectiveness—which translates into prompt publication and distribution—will impose a not unreasonable discipline upon contributors. Programs are in place to facilitate this development, including a new camera-ready format authors will use, and complete instructions are being prepared. The new systems should help ensure that manuscripts require minimal mechanical editing, and thus speed the preparation of the assembled volume. A Pleasant Surprise The Finance Committee, under the direction of Clyde Northrup, has done detailed four-year projections of the viability of the new enterprise, and concurs that it is sound, practical, and advantageous. The Materials Research Society expects the venture to contribute to its financial stability at a pricing level members will find a pleasant surprise. It also should contribute to the Society's independence and its stature. Most importantly, it will improve communication among materials professionals, and thus better serve our members and our scientific community.
