		1987 WORKSHOP ON COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE FOR
		 PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE

			  Seattle, Washington
			  October 5 - 7, 1987


CAPAMI '87 will focus on new architectures and associated algorithms for
computer vision, image processing, and artificial intelligence.  This
workshop is a successor of the Computer Architecture for Pattern Analysis
and Image Database Management workshops.  The program, given below, consists
of high-quality refereed papers, invited speakers, and panel sessions on
the design and implementation of parallel architectures and algorithms for
pattern analysis and machine intelligence.  Invited speakers are: Tom
Knight, MIT, George Reeke, Rockefeller University, and Masatsugu Kidode,
