                       SPECIAL ISSUE ON APPLICATIONS OF
                               AI IN ENGINEERING

The  April  1985 issue of the SIGART newsletter (tentative schedule) will focus
on the applications of AI in engineering. The  purpose  of  this  issue  is  to
provide  an overview of research being conducted in this area around the world.
The following topics are suggested:

   - Knowledge-based expert systems
   - Intelligent computer tutors
   - Representation of engineering problems
   - Natural language and graphical interfaces
   - Interfacing engineering databases with expert systems

The above topics are by no means exhaustive; other related topics are welcome.

Individuals or groups conducting research in this area and who  would  like  to
share  their  ideas  are invited to send two copies of 3 to 4 page summaries of
their work,  preferably  ongoing  research,  before  December  1,  1984.    The
summaries  should  include  a  title,  the  names of people associated with the
research, affiliations, and bibliographical references.  Since the primary  aim
of  this  special  issue  is  to provide information about ongoing and proposed
research, please be as brief  as  possible  and  avoid  lengthy  implementation
details.    Submissions should be sent to D. Sriram at the following address or
through Arpanet to Sriram@CMU-RI-CIVE:
