Subject: ARPA PROPOSAL, 1975 + 2
As previously advertised, it is now time to write our ARPA proposal
for the two year period beginning 1 July 1975.
Your section should include a summary of recent accomplishments, with
suitable bragging about significant work. There should be a
bibliography of books, articles, reports, and films that are relevant
to an understanding of this work, including publications of outside
people where appropriate. You will probably save time by building on
our recent annual report [AIM-252], which is available in the
document room and on the disk in RECENT.PUB[D,LES].
I would welcome suggested changes and additions to our list of
"bullets" given at the beginning of Section 2 [page 3 of the printed
version, page 6 on the disk].
You should attempt to identify new directions that our research
should take and the reasons why you think the work is important. The
treatment should be aimed at readers who are knowledgeable in
computer science, but not necessarily in your speciality. Try to
convey the objectives of your work and the general approach, but keep
it informal and don't try to cover everything.
If you forsee any special hardware or system development
requirements, lay them out and we will try to estimate the costs.
I need your input no later than Monday, December 2. Happy Thanksgiving.

I believe that it would be worthwhile to establish, for each research project,
a list of important references. We already have a file area allocated to
bibliographies, namely [BIB,DOC]. A hand-eye bibliography exists there in
the file HAND.EYE, but it is a bit out-of-date.
I further propose that any bibliographies that are created use the following
format:
<author names, separated by commas, with lead author listed last-name-first>
"<title, with any internal quotes represented by ` and ' >"
<journal or other source -- if more than one, separate with ";">
<if in a book, give publisher and city>
<month, if known, and year of publication>.
<blank line>
