Please use LaTeX to write papers. You can search the TeX Users Group website for information
on document processing and LaTeX implementations. MikTeX is a LaTeX implementation for
Windows.

A very good introduction to LaTeX is contained in the file mil.pdf
which provides an introduction to LaTeX: Math
into LaTeX Short Course based on the book Math into LaTeX: An
Introduction to LaTeX and AMS-LaTeX by George Gratzer, published by Birkhauser Boston, ISBN
0-8176-3805-9.
Purchase a copy of The
LaTeX Companion, 2/e by Frank Mittelbach, Michel Goossens,
Johannes Braams,
David Carlisle, and
Chris Rowley. This is an invaluable source with descriptions of
packages for LaTeX. Also, the most recent reference guide for LaTeX2e
is Latex:
A Document Preparation System, Second Edition by Leslie
Lamport .
The TUG site also has a page with Getting Started
information for LaTeX.
The Grid Forum is an informal
consortium of institutions and individuals working on wide area
computing and computational grids: the technologies that underlie such
activities as the NCSA Alliance's National Technology Grid, NPACI's
Metasystems efforts, NASA's Information Power Grid, DOE ASCI's DISCOM
program, and other activities worldwide. Ian Foster and Carl
Kesselman have edited the text The Grid:
Blueprint for a New Computing Infrastructure that provides an
excellent resource for grid researchers and developers. At UNM, we are
using the Globus Infrastructure
Toolkit to develop grid-based applications.
