This presentation will introduce a newly-formed unit at UBC,
whose purpose is to facilitate and coordinate activities in
computer-based research areas. CICSR (pronounced ``Caesar'') has
affiliated faculty members from the Departments of Computer Sci-
ence, Electrical Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering. Colla-
borative research is encouraged, as well as external liaison with
industrial firms and government agencies. The Centre has recently
