Papers, projects, presentations, proposals, and piffle
Here are as many of my papers, projects, presentations, proposals, and piffle as
I could find and put online. Many of the older ones lack appendices and some
figures. Files are in PDF format. You'll probably need some kind of Adobe Acrobat Reader to look at them. Email withers@bu.edu if you would
prefer Postscript files or the original Word/LaTeX/Powerpoint/whatever documents.
