Second Circular                                    22 October, 2002

The 7th Gravitational Wave Data Analysis Workshop (GWDAW2002)
will be held at the International Institute for Advanced Studies (IIAS)
in Kyoto, Japan on December 17-19, 2002.

We look forward to your attendance and your active contributions
to the workshop. The workshop will cover topics in data analysis
for all kinds of gravitational wave detectors
(ground and space-based interferometers, resonant bars, etc.),
and theoretical issues on sources.

Registration:
Each participants are required to visit the workshop web site
to fill out the registration form.
The workshop web site is at http://vega.ess.sci.osaka-u.ac.jp/gwdaw/ .
There, you can submit the abstract of your talk in
