An aquaintance of mine told me that he read an article on an expert system to aid in colour selection. I'm very interested in knowing if such a beast exists, as it relates to my research. Unfortunately, he cannot remember where he read about it. If anyone knows about such a system, please e-mail me any information you might have, no matter how scarce. I would be forever gratefull!

What he had seen was the reference (at the bottom of page 601 in the new Foley, van Dam, ... ) to "ACE: A color expert system". I received two pointers: First, >The article on using neural nets to pick color sets is in Brenda Laurel's >great book on Human Interfaces. I think its called "The Art of Human >Interface" but it's at home and I'm not sure. It has a street scene >on the cover with the sign "Don't Walk" with Don't in red and Walk in green. >Very funny. It's paperback and costs $25 US. The second reference was the one that I refer to above >If you look at the bottom of page 601 in the new Foley, van Dam, ... >you'll see a system called ACE (A Color Expert) mentioned with reference >to a paper > B.J. Meier, ACE: A Color Expert System for User Interface Design, > Proc. ACM SIGGRAPH Symp. on User Interface Software, Banff, Alberta, > October 17-19, 1988, 117-128, ACM Order Number 429881. I'm posting this because I have received numerous requests for this info from people.
