OPEN DAY FOR INDUSTRY AT HUMAN COMMUNICATION RESEARCH CENTRE EDINBURGH UNIVERSITY SEPTEMBER 25TH 1990 HCRC is an Economic and Social Research Council funded Interdisciplinary Research Centre which conducts basic research into human information processing, focussing on linguistic communication. It is concerned both with how people process information and how information technology can be designed to aid in human-human and human-machine communication. HCRC also has a remit to transfer its basic research results to Industry, Commerce and Government, all producers and consumers of IT. This Open Day marks the formation of HCRC's Affiliates Club. Potential Users of the research will be able to see accounts and demonstrations of HCRC's research and meet its staff of researchers. There will be a panel discussion to provide opportunity for interested parties to have an input into the direction which HCRC's Affiliates Scheme takes in encouraging technology transfer.
