Editor's note
This is the first issue of CSLI's monthly report of research
activities. This issue introduces CSLI and then characterizes each of
its current research projects; following issues will report on
individual projects in more detail and discuss some of the research
questions raised here.
What is CSLI?
CSLI is a research institute devoted to building theories about the
nature of information and how it is conveyed, processed, stored, and
transformed through the use of language and in computation.
Researchers include computer scientists, linguists, philosophers,
psychologists, and workers in artificial intelligence from several San
Francisco Bay Area institutions as well as graduate students,
postdoctoral fellows, and visiting scholars from around the world.

[The full description of the institute and its projects would take four
AIList digests. I am forwarding this fragment of the new monthly so that
those who might be interested can request copies. -- KIL]
