    LOCALIZATION AND ENERGY TRANSFER IN NONLINEAR SYSTEMS
    Proceedings of the Third Conference
    San Lorenzo de El Escorial Madrid, Spain, 17 – 21 June 2002

    edited by Luis Vázquez (Universidad Compultense & CSIC/INTA, Spain) , Robert S MacKay (Warwick University, UK) , & María Paz Zorzano (CSIC/INTA, Spain)

    This conference was the third meeting organized in the framework of the European LOCNET project. The main topics discussed by this international research collaboration were localization by nonlinearity and spatial discreteness, and energy transfer (in crystals, biomolecules and Josephson arrays).
