The papers contained in the volume represent lectures delivered as a
1983 NATO ASI, held at Urbino, Italy. The lecture series was designed to
identify the key submicron and ultrasubmicron device physics, transport,
materials and contact issues. Nonequilibrium transport, quantum
transport, interfacial and size constraints issues were also
highlighted. The ASI was supported by NATO and the European Research
Office. H. L. Grubin D. K. Ferry C. Jacoboni v CONTENTS MODELLING OF
