Datenverarbeitung organize an "Open Day" during  the EKAW88 (European
Knowledge Acquisition for Knowledge Based Systems  Workshop).  Recent
research  results  of  the  knowledge  acquisition   domain  will  be
presented to the public The speeches given during the "Open Day" will
be addressed to both the developers of expert systems acquainted with
the  problems  of  knowledge  engineering  and the  potential user of
knowledge based technologies who want to know  the state  of the art.
Most  of  the  speakers  at  the  "Open Day"  will be  members of the
