      	     	    The Laboratory for AI Research
                      Fairchild Research Center
                        Palo Alto, California


	... is searching for star-quality Computer Science and AI
talent.  We are building a premier research laboratory to create the
key concepts and products for the coming age of intelligent systems.

	Our research is organized into three major areas --
Perception, Cognition and Systems.  We support a mixture of both
long-term basic research and advanced development; currently there are
ongoing projects in:

Computer-aided Design 	   Natural Language Interfaces
Consultation Systems	   Visual Inspection and Automation
Speech Recognition	   Knowledge-Based Simulation and Test Generation
Knowledge Representation   Signal & Image Understanding
Computer Graphics	   Semantic Information Retrieval
	   Advanced VLSI-based Computer Architectures

	Our laboratory has a generous amount of varied computing
equipment including a DECSystem 2060, Vax 11/780s, Symbolics 3600s,
Xerox D-machines and SUN workstations; a wide variety of graphics
devices including an Evans and Sutherland Multi-Picture system, and an
Ikonas frame buffer/digitizer.  Other more specialized equipment
includes a Digital Sound 16-bit A/D D/A converter and an FPS-100 Array
processor.  We are continually enhancing our computing facilities and
have a full-time support and operations staff.  To make the
state-of-the-art computing environment required by AI research we do
advanced development and support in the following areas:

Operating Systems	    Programming Environments and Languages
Computer Networks	    Signal, Image processing and I/O
Distributed Processing	    Electronic Messaging
		Document Production

	We need individuals with software design skills plus
competence across the core disciplines of CS, EE and AI.  Recent
graduates are encouraged to apply.  Please contact the laboratory
