Subject: Re: Policy - AI Hardware


About 6 months ago, I offered to moderate a list for discussing AI
hardware, and asked that people who would be interested in such a
list send me their names and email addresses. I got all of 5 responses.
It didn't seem to me to be worth starting up a list for that small
an audience... The offer still stands, I guess, though I doubt if
I'm going to get more response....

Subject: Computer Chess article in March 6 New Yorkr

An interesting article in the current (on newstands till next Tuesday
or so) New Yorker on the Fifth World Computer Chess Championship interviews
many of the participants (Hans Berliner and Ken Thompson, for example)
and touches on many of the "intelligence" and "conscious" issues.

The article was written by Brad Leithauser.

Subject: Conference - Volunteers for AAAI-87

ANNOUNCEMENT:
Student Volunteers Needed for
Artificial Intelligence Conference
AAAI-87


AAAI-87 (American Association on Artificial Intelligence) will
be held July 13-17, 1987 in beautiful Seattle, Washington.
Student volunteers are needed to help with local arrangements
and staffing of the conference. To be eligible for a Volunteer
position, an individual must be an undergraduate or graduate
student in any field at any college or university.

This is an excellent opportunity for students to participate in
the conference. Volunteers receive FREE registration at AAAI-87,
conference proceedings, "STAFF" T-shirt, and are invited to the
volunteer party. More importantly, by participating as a volunteer,
you become more involved and meet students and researchers with
similar interests.

Volunteer responsibilities are varied, including conference
preparation, registration, staffing of sessions and tutorials
and organizational tasks. Each volunteer will be assigned
twelve (12) hours.

If you are interested in participating in AAAI-87 as a Student
Volunteer, apply by sending the following information:

Name
Electronic Mail Address
USMail Address
Telephone Number(s)
Dates Available
Student Affiliation
Advisor's Name

to:

feifer@locus.ucla.edu

or

Thanks, and I hope you join us this year!

Subject: Conference - ACL Europe Copenhagen Conference, 1-3 April 1987

ASSOCIATION FOR COMPUTATIONAL LINGUISTICS: EUROPEAN CHAPTER
Third Conference and General Meeting
April 1-3 1987, University of Copenhagen

Due to communication problems, the first registration circular announcing
the Conference did not get sent to most ACL members. The attached
information contains the programme, which was just released, together
with information on registration (which because of the short time must
now be down at the meeting) and hotels. For further information,
contact: Bente Maegaard (ACL)

The conference will be held at the University of Copenhagen (Amager),
Njalsgade 80, DK-2300 Copenhagen S, DENMARK, which is about 10 minutes
by bus from the center of the city.

REGISTRATION will take place on March 31 from 17 p.m. to 21 p.m., at
the Institute of Applied and Mathematical Linguistics (Institut for
Anvendt og Matematisk Lingvistik=IAML), University of Copenhagen/Amager,
room 6.3.65 (stairway 6, third floor, room 65). The registration room
will be easily found if you enter the university by the main entrance
(Njalsgade 80) and follow the signs. It will also be possible to
register on April 1st from 8.30 a.m. to 9.30 a.m. or, if necessary,
