The NATO Advanced Study Institute on "Scale Invariance, Interfaces
and Non Equilibrium Dynamics" was held at the Isaac Newton
Institute for Mathematical Sciences in Cambridge, UK from 20-30
June 1994. The topics discussed at the Institute were all concerned
with the origin and nature of complex structures found far from
equilibrium. Examples ranged from reaction diffusion systems and
hydrodynamics through to surface growth due to deposition. A common
theme was that of scale invariance due to the self-similarity of
the underly ing structures. The topics that were covered can be
broadly classified as pattern for mation (theoretical,
computational and experimental aspects), the non-equilibrium
dynamics of the growth of interfaces and other manifolds,
coarsening phenomena, generic scale invariance in driven systems
and the concept of self-organized critical ity. The main feature of
the Institute was the four one-hour-Iong lectures given each day by
invited speakers. In addition to thirty-seven of these lectures,
two contributed lectures were also given. The many questions that
were asked after the lectures attested to the excitement and
interest that the lecturers succeeded in generating amongst the
students. In addition to the discussions initiated by lectures, an
im portant component of the meeting were the poster sessions, where
participants were able to present their own work, which took place
on three of the afternoons. The list of titles given at the end of
these proceedings gives some idea of the range and scope of these
posters."
