All self-dual codes over GF(3) and GF(4) of length 16 are found. The self-dual codes of shorter length are described in a concise and systematic notation. A number of new techniques ("promotion" and "demotion," "tag olng? and "subtraction") are given for constructing codes. Finally, several new extremal self-dual codes are given which have length greater than 16.

Self-dual Codes-Theme and Variations
Self-dual codes over GF(2), GF(3) and GF(4) were classified from the early 70's until the early 80's. A method for how to do this and efficient descriptions of the codes were developed [3, 4, 17, 20,
