	TO: Neural Network and Connectionist Researchers

    I am a research scientist in the Intelligent Systems Technology
Branch of the Information Sciences division of NASA Ames Research
Center.  I am currently working on the Spaceborne VHSIC Multiprocessor
System (SVMS) project under Dr. Henry Lum.  In organizing a poster session
on Neural Networks for the 1988 SOAR conference, I am gathering
information on the current state of the field, as well as various technical
and non-technical papers for distribution at the conference.

    The SOAR (Space Operations Automation and Robotics) workshop in
automation and robotics is sponsored by NASA in conjunction with the
USAF.  The main objectives of the workshop are:

	1) To establish communications between individuals and
	   organizations involved in similar research and technology

	2) To bring together project/program managers in open exchange
	   through presentation of technical papers and panel discussions

	3) To document in the proceedings a snapshot of
	   USAF/NASA efforts in automation and robotics

If you have papers or information to be included in a summary of the neural
networks field, please mail them to me at the above address or on the
arpanet.  Even more importantly, I am looking for papers on research done
or currently being done to incorporate as supplemental information and
distribution material at the conference and beyond.  Please feel free to
call me at (415) 694-6526 or send mail on the arpanet to
HOSEIN@AMES-PLUTO.ARPA if you have specific questions about the poster
session or the conference.
