jmc - First of all it's "it's" not "its".  Second the Random House dictionary
is what the name suggests.  There are two meanings, and English will be
a better communication medium if people adhere to the meaning of "flout"
as "ostentatiously disdain or disobey" and "flaunt" as "ostentatiously display".

Subject: Fixed Points

The familiar non-trivial LISP fixed point is:

The following expression is the one that was given.  Fed to Maclisp,
it indeed returns itself - converted to caps.
((lambda (X) (list X (list (quote quote) X)))
 (quote (lambda (X) (list X (list (quote quote) X)))))


What can be done for Prolog?  Ideally, I would like to find a
one-clause predicate fixed/1, with the property that fixed(Term)
is true of the Term which is the clause that defines fixed/1.

Subject: Seminar - Multilisp (CMU)


Speaker:        Robert Halstead
Date:           March 16, 1987
Time:           2:00 p.m.
Place:          Wean Hall 8220
Topic:          Multilisp:  A Language for Parallel Symbolic Computing

                                ABSTRACT

Multilisp is an extension of Scheme with additional operators and
additional semantics for parallel execution.  These have been added
without removing side effects from the language.  The principal
parallelism construct in Multilisp is the "future," which exhibits some
features of both eager and lazy evaluation.  Current work focuses on
making Multilisp a more humane programming environment, on expanding the
power of Multilisp to express task scheduling policies, and on measuring
the properties of Multilisp programs with the goal of designing a
parallel architecture well tailored for efficient Multilisp execution.

Multilisp has been implemented, and runs on the shared-memory
Concert multiprocessor, using as many as 27 processors.  The
implementation uses interesting techniques for task scheduling and
garbage collection.  The task scheduler helps control excessive resource
utilization by means of an unfair scheduling policy; the garbage
collector uses a multiprocessor algorithm modeled after the incremental
garbage collector of Baker.

The talk will briefly describe Multilisp, discuss the areas of
current activity, and indicate the future direction of the project in
the areas of language design, application development, and
multiprocessor architecture.

            "Parallel Program Debugging with Partial Orders"

Parallel programs are considerably more difficult to debug than
sequential programs, because successive executions of a parallel program
often do not exhibit the same behavior.  Instant Replay is a new
technique for reproducing parallel-program executions.  Partial orders
of significant events are recorded during program execution and used to
enforce equivalence of execution replays.  This technique (1) requires
less time and space to save information for program replay than other
methods, (2) is independent of the form of interprocess communication,
(3) provides for replay of an entire program, rather than individual
processes, (4) introduces no centralized bottlenecks, and (5) does not
require synchronized clocks or globally-consistent logical time.  Some
performance results of a prototype on the BBN Butterfly [TM] Parallel
Processor will be presented, and it will be shown how Instant Replay can
be used in the debugging cycle for parallel programs.

When I saw your message, I thought it wasn't Nash, and my candidate was
Hilaire Belloc, so I looked in the Oxford Book of Quotations index under
"pelican" and found Merritt.  I never heard of him, and that's the only
quote from him in the book, so I guess he was a flash in the pan.  He was
listed as born in 1879 and so preceded Nash by perhaps a generation.
Actually, it seems to me that the limerick in question is not in Nash's
style, who maybe didn't write limericks and formed exotic rhymes
differently, and that its style was more common in the humorous verse of
the late nineteenth and early twentieth century.  However, I don't know
enough about poetic style to back up this impression.

Dawkins may be neglecting episodic events.  Suppose a gene for
excess reproduction accumulates, causes excess population, which
causes a die-off of almost the whole population, e.g. from epidemics.
The territory is then colonized by immigrants from a group that
didn't suffer the epidemic, because it didn't get too dense.

Subject: Natural Kinds (Re: AIList Digest   V5 #186)


About natural kinds.  In "The Society of Mind", pp123-129, I propose a
way to deal with Wittgenstein's problem of defining terms like "game"-
or "chair".  The basic idea was to probe further into what
Wittgenstein was trying to do when he talked about "family
resemblances" and tried to describe a game in terms of properties, the
way one might treat members of a human family: build, features, colour
of eyes, gait, temperament, etc.

In my view, Wittgenstein missed the point because he focussed on
"structure" only.  What we have to do is also take into account the
"function", "goal", or "intended use" of the definition.  My trick is
to catch the idea between two descriptions, structural and functional.
Consider a chair, for example.

  STRUCTURE: A chair usually has a seat, back, and legs - but
     any of them can be changed in so many ways that it is hard
     to make a definition to catch them all.

  FUNCTION: A chair is intended to be used to keep one's bottom
     about 14 inches off the floor, to support one's back
     comfortably, and to provide space to bend the knees.

If you understand BOTH of these, then you can make sense of that list
of structural features - seat, back, and legs - and engage your other
worldly knowledge to decide when a given object might serve well as a
chair.  This also helps us understand how to deal with "toy chair" and
such matters.  Is a toy chair a chair?  The answer depends on what you
want to use it for.  It is a chair, for example, for a suitable toy
person, or for reminding people of "real" chairs, or etc.

In other words, we should not worship Wittgenstein's final defeat, in
which he speaks about vague resemblances - and, in effect, gives up
hope of dealing with such subjects logically.  I suspect he simply
wasn't ready to deal with intentions - because nothing comparable to
Newell and Simon's GPS theory of goals, or McCarthy's meta-predicate
(Want P) was yet available.

I would appreciate comments, because I think this may be an important
theory, and no one seems to have noticed it.  I just noticed, myself,
that I didn't mention Wittgenstein himself (on page 130) when
discussiong the definition of "game".  Apologies to his ghost.

The National Science Foundation is now prepared to accept reviews
of research proposals via the electronic mail system.  Such a
review should be sent directly to the program manager requesting
the review. The review should contain the proposal number as well
as the text of the review and an overall rating.  The official
foundation policy is that the name of the investigator and the
title of the proposal should appear in the message as the second
and third lines, immediately after the proposal number and before
the text of the review.  In light of possible security problems
while the electronic review is in transit, I will accept
electronic reviews without a title and investigator name in the
message.

qlisp runs out in may.  There was a plan for a new proposal in sept,
but Les dropped the ball.

My nsf has just about used up its money, although the grant runs
till August 31.  That's six months beyond the nominal ending date.

Still no answer from darpa about when the new contract starts.

Carolyn's contract was proposed for 3 years but runs for one year
ending June xx, maybe june 1.

3 yrs, $525K, 55% or requested budget, 1st year 171K.  He said he expects
it to come through in 60 days, so, according to nsf regulations, we
could start charging immediately.

Winograd - Can there be intelligent machines?  Are we?
p. 15 -
	Consider ordinary words as an analogy.  Imagine that a doctor
asks a nurse ``Is the patient eating?''  If they are deciding whether to
perform an examination, the request might be paraphrased ``Is she eating
at the moment?''  If the patient is in the hospital for anorexia and the
doctor is checking the effectiveness of the treatment, it might be more
like ``Has the patient eaten some minimal amount in the past day?''  If
the patient has recently undergone surgery, it might mean ``Has the
patient taken any nutrition by mouth,'' and so on.  In responding, a
person interprets the sentence as having relevance in the current
situation, and will typically respond appropriately without choosing
among meanings.

	In order to build a successful symbol system, decontextualized
mening is necessary --- terms must be stripped of open-ended ambiguities
an shadings.   A medical expert system might have a rule of the form:
``IF Eating(x) THEN $\ldots$,'' which is to be applied only if the
patient is eating, along with others of the form ``IF $\ldots$
THEN Eating(x)'' which determine when the condition holds.
Unless everyone who writes or reads a rule interprets it in the
same way, the ruels have no constant interpretation and the results
are unpredictable.

	In response to this, one can try to refine the vocabulary.
``Currently-Dining'' and ``Taking-Solids'' could replace the more
generic term, or we could add construal rules, such as ``in the
context of immediate action, take `Eating' to mean `Currently-Dining'.''
Such approaches work for the cases that programmers anticipate,
but of course are subject to the infinite regress of trying to
decontextualize context.  Te new terms or rules themselves depend on
interpretation that is not represented in the system.

They haven't been silent.  They publish annual and other reports.
I've gone through several with Japanese engineering friends
looking for content.  There wasn't much.  Playing it close to the

they had something, they'd be crowing.

See above.  Note that the fifth generation Project is not a

You must have been living in a very rural area.  Feigenbaum's
book was published in 1983.  The Japanese reputation for quality
was well-established by the mid-1960s in general, and earlier for
products such as watches and cameras.  I would say that the
Japanese reputation for quality was generally established two
decades before Feigenbaum published, except possibly for real
redneck areas of this country....

>(as reported in one of the business trade journals about
>the increasing number of Americans working for Japanese
>managers. according to the article, Japanese managers consider
>Americans "lazy and untrustworthy.")]

Public opinion polls in Japan show the Japanese think rather
highly of themselves.  A more accurate generalization would be
that a good percentage of the Japanese consider all non-Japanese
lazy and untrustworthy....

>Don't flame me, I bought an American car.  But, isn't their

Sympathy, yes.  Flames, no.

>track record good enough of late to take their even
>most ambitious plans seriously?

No.  Japan has it share of hucksters, con-artists, research
projects to which Proxmire would give his Golden Fleece Award,
and failures.  Just because certain aspects of the economy are
doing exceptionally well should not lead to a "halo effect" that
blinds observers and causes them to abandon all serious
analysis.  To do so would be to apply to Japan the same
uncritical approach Americans have tended to take with respect to
this country, especially in the 1950s and early 1960s.

"Ambitious plans" in Japan should be examined just as critically
as "ambitious plans" in the US.  More bucks, more bull is a rule
that has equal applicability in both cultures.  The history of
American writing on Japan (something I've taught as a course) has
shown one constant: wild exaggeration, whether the stereotype was
negative or positive.

from SIGART newsletter 1988 Oct, p. 30
re: How can slow components think so fast (Hillis's Stanford
symposium)  report by Ashok Goel, Ohio State

	John McCarthy suggested that symbols are the key to
intelligence.  He took issue with Newell, arguing that symbols act
not only as pointers for distal access and memory retrieval, but
also represent externals.  Symbols are needed for computation,
McCarthy said, for they can be used as variables, though a
specific symbol may not be bound to any value.  This points to
one of the problems with connectionist approaches: they provide
no mechanism for variable binding.  Another problem is that
connectionist schemes provide no mechanism for representing
relations other (than) unary relations.  However, the most
important problem with the connectionist models, McCarthy said,
is epistemological: it is not clear what a connectionist model
has learned when it has done the learning.

	McCarthy then went on to defend the logicist's position
on epistemological grounds.  What is needed, he said, is a
semantically universal langaage for expressing what an agent
knows.  Thus, the new logic agenda, McCarthy proclaimed, is to
formalize contexts, make context a parameter, build context
hierarchies, and then use non-monotonic reasoning for upward
inheritance.  He concluded by saying that it now appears to be a
race between the logicists and the connectionists.

In the discussion following this talk (Feldman's connectionist
manifesto), McCarthy pointed out that logic is not committed
to necessary and sufficient conditions.  In fact, it recognizes
``natural kinds'' of objects for whom such conditions are often
not known.

John McCracken, Service Manager of Stanford Energy Systems, 1901
Old Middlefield Way, Suite 6, Mountain View 94040, 967-2007 took
apart the pump and put it back together and said it still leaks.
He said the pump needed replacement, because the gasket was
unavailable.  He said the pump was from a good company and the
system was professionally put together.  He said the valve that
drains the system at night was inoperative.  Said the check valve
in that loop was installed backwards so the water came from the
cold side.  Said heater in Timothy room was inoperative, since
fan didn't go on.  Said that pump only serviced that heater.
Said it would cost $150 for a new pump and $500 to fix
everything.

I called the Better Business Bureau 408 978-8700, and after some
inferior Muzak, they told me that Stanford Energy Systems  had
not been reported on since 1985 but had a good reputation.
They said I could also check the State contractors license bureau
in San Jose 408 277-1244.

I called Steven Foung 3-6481 and we agreed that he would call
another solar contractor and get a second opinion.  We should
send him a copy of these notes.  He will cover the cost of
putting the system right.

My preliminary remark at the Steklov Institute.  1989 April
This is my first visit to the Steklov Institute, and I'm very
glad to be here.  However, I should say that the Steklov Institute
has a reputation in the West for antisemitism.  I hope that
glasnost will permit this to be discussed and perestroika will
permit it to be fixed.

Office Memo, Stanford University Libraries
date: April 12, 1989
To: The Steering Committee of the Academic Senate via Arthur Coladarci
From: Joan Krasner, Secretary, C-Lib
The following is an excerpt from the minutes of the April 10th meeting
of C-Lib which considered the matter of computer bulletin boards on campus.
The Preamble to the Statement on Academic Freedom (1974) states that
``Expression of the widest range of viewpoints should be encouraged, free
from institutional orthodoxy and from internal or external coercion.''
It is the view of the Academic Council Committee on Libraries that this
statement pertains to materials received on computer bulletin boards on
campus.  Acquisition and access to information in new forms should be
subject only to financial limits and other standard criteria of collection
such as the useful life of the materials, storage capacity, etc.
- approved by Academic Council Commmittee on Libraries, April 10, 1989.

A Connotative Treatment of circumscription by Jun Arima ICOT.
%
Connotative circumscription: the names that can be shown to denote objects
satisfying a certain property P from certain facts  A  are all the names
denoting objects which satisfy  P.
Probably a good idea, but it's protected by a barrier of definitions.
Maybe VAL will understand it.  How does it differ from my idea and VAL's?
%
Maybe the ideas will be even better if we somehow delimit the names to
those present in the context of the problem.  We circumscribe
to limit the relevant names in the context and circumscribe again
to limit the number denoting objects with the property  P.

mereology - theory of parts and wholes, Lesniewski to Goodman.

William and Martha Kneale, The Development of Logic
The Theory of Relations, p. 427, De Morgan and Peirce
De Morgan's 1859 theory was still rather special and strange in notation
(i) x is an l of an m of y (John is a lover of a master of Peter).
(ii) x is an l of every m of y
(iii) x is an l of none but an m of y.

In 1870 Peirce said of De Morgan's work
``This system still leaves something to be desired.  Moreover
Boole's logical algebra has such singular beauty, so far as it
goes, that it is interesting to inquire whether it cannot be
extend over the whole realm of formal logic, instead of being
restricted to that simplest and least useful part of the subject,
the logic of absolute terms, which, when he wrote, was the only
formal logic known ... In extending the use of old symbols to new
subjects, we must of course be guided by certain principles of
analogy, which, when formulated, become new and wider definitions
of these symbols.''

Peirce (1883) did better, coming up with a notation equivalent to the modern
predicate calculus.  He didn't know of Frege (1879).

but what is learned is what to do as a function of the inputs.
You don't always win then, so you aren't really learning the
structure of the mechanism.

Dear Sanjay:
	I much enjoyed visiting the AI group at Watson, and it seems
to me that IBM is now on the track of doing good research in AI.  I
hope people found my talk interesting.  The one night hotel bill that
you agreed that IBM would pay comes to
$138.41.

Sincerely,

Chris Cherniak was the philosopher at UMD who talked in Don Perlis's

He needs application info.  I promised to send him some old proposal

Specifically, however, he wants to know how our stuff would
fit into an intelligent agents program.  He also didn't get the papers
I thought I sent him.  He agreed that giving Boehm the presentation
we gave him would be appropriate.  He said Boehm might be thinking that
AI was killing flies with a sledgehammer.  (maybe, Why didn't you? is
worth fitting in.)  However, Boehm has offered help with budget questions.

reference for Dan

There was enough confusion at the end of yesterday's meeting (moving
people from the admitted to the wait list) that I want to confirm
that I have the correct info.  I show 43 people from the original list
admitted -- that is, the top 41 excepting Tamaki, and then Hoang,
Handley (white-ball from Vaughan) and Gunopulos.   With Dan Pehoushek
(John McCarthy's whiteball) and David Karger (the deferral from
last year), we have a total of 45.  There are 6 people on the
wait list:  Hardwick, Bishop, Sengers, Stanley, Moreira and Ringrose,
in that order.

Here's the full list (not including Pehoushek and Karger): [Please let
me know right away if you think I'm mistaken in anything!]

Penrose
	Is dubiousness of positivist principles relevant?  Not to this review.

Landauer.  Is there quantum randomness in the Kolmogorov-Chaitin sense?

Penrose should try to apply algorithmic randomness to QM.

Are the fancier Feynman diagrams irrelevant at low energies?

April 6 discussion with VAL
nondescript objects as sets of towers
	there can be several
	they can be contradictory
	property of towers
thinking of an x; logic prog. with classical negation
proper towers fits better with sets
operations of including and excluding are intentional
two kinds of holds, val doubts need for nonmon here.

There are more complex relations between mental and physical
components of the state than just the predicate exists.

Evaluating readiness
Sue said that the
Children's Health Council can evaluate Timothy's Kindergarten
readiness. 326-5530
I called and they referred me to Doris K.... there.  On
April 11 I called her.  She said their procedure is to have
one of their counselors interview us, then observe Timothy at school,
and then meet with us again.  The procedure doesn't involve examining
Timothy.  This seems unlikely to come up with much result, but she
will send us their brochure, and I said we would call her if we wanted
to proceed further with them.  If you want to proceed with them you
can make an appointment, but I'd like to come too.

The Texas prison system was considered constitutional from the time
Texas was admitted to the union until Judge Justice ruled it
unconstitutional.  Both Mogul and Karish express no doubts about the
judge's decisions, just taking his decisions as expressing facts, and
neither cares to comment on the actual results including the 50 extra
murders.  I predict that their confidence in judge-created law will
vanish if and when decisions start going against their preferences.
