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".

Garo Keremidjian, CIA project for AI panels, session on expert systems
technology, common sense reasoning, propose week of Feb 17
one day session, 30 to 45 minute lecture, related to description of
interests given in advance.  I said it would have to be Monday.

Jan 15 discussion with John Hopcroft, roboticist
His colleagues are Dean Kraft and Christoph Hoffman
A valve takes 500 algebraic equations
Their recent work is on blending surfaces, i.e. fillets.
He sees himself better at "working for someone" than administering.
He doesn't see expert systems contributing to robotics at present.
papers:
Automatic surface generation in computer aided design - with Hoffman
The challenge of robotics for computer science - with Kraft

Jan 15 with Ralph
machine independent library of supervisor calls - interface spec.
Mike Nielsen (for Brian Reid) implemented Unix library in a non-unix
operating system which permitted C, editor, etc.
Systems should work on a variety of machines (e.g. Suns and Microvax
and now PC-RT).

ebos may not be compatible with goal of making constant system
whose manuals can be bought at the Bookstore. - Les

For David Skeen, See "The Structure of Microcomputer File Systems"
by Donald Golden and Michael Pechura, CACM 1986 March, p. 222.  It
concerns using files made by other computers, and it may have useful
references or the authors may know something useful.
