CALL FOR PAPERS 1988 ASME INTERNATIONAL COMPUTERS IN ENGINEERING CONFERENCE AND EXHIBITION SAN FRANCISCO HILTON SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA July 31 - August 3, 1988 REAL WORLD APPLICATIONS OF EXPERT SYSTEMS AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE The theme for the 1988 ASME International Computers in Engineering Conference will focus on the emerging applications of expert systems and artificial intelligence. This conference and exhibition provides a forum for engineers, managers, researchers, vendors, and users to discuss relevant issues, and to present ideas on computer technology and its impact on the engineering workplace. Over 80 papers and panel sessions are planned covering a broad spectrum of technical computing and computers in the engineering community. The topics covered will encompass: computer aided design and manufacturing, computer simulation, robotics, interactive graphics, finite element techniques, microprocessors, computers in educations, expert systems, and artificial intelligence. Papers are solicited in all areas related to the application, development, research, and education with computers in mechanical engineering. Contributions in the form of full-length papers or extended abstracts are solicited. Accepted papers will be published in the bound Conference Proceedings. Full length papers of special note will be reviewed after the conference for publication in the Society's magazine "Computers in Mechanical Engineering (CIME)". The annual event is sponsored by the Computers in Engineering Division of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). San Francisco is the site of this years conference.
