The publications below are sorted by subject category. Within each category, refereed journal articles generally come first, followed by reports and other non-refereed publications. Within each of those groups, documents are loosely in reverse chronological order. The categories are listed below; clicking on each category will take you directly to that section of the list. Hard copies of older research reports can be purchased using the ITS Publications Order Form, which contains prices and complete ordering information. The form can be returned by fax, e-mail or regular mail.
