Organization: Togai InfraLogic, Inc.
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 1992 03:08:39 GMT

This is a call for sessions and papers for Wescon 93.  I am 
organizing a session on the application of fuzzy/neural-nets.
If you are interested in presenting a paper, please e-mail me
a 250-word summary (see below) of your proposed paper by 11/25.
I am looking for papers that are more applications oriented;
although, I would consider all-comers.

If you are interested in organizing a session (a session is
4 to 5 papers in a related field), or if you have interests in
any of the other fields, please follow the CFP instructions.

	records will be available at the conference for attendees
	(speakers receive one complimentary copy), and a hardbound
	volume will be distributed to technical libraries worldwide
	following the conference.  Complete manuscripts (3 to 6 pages
	in length) are required of each individual speaker.

	Presentations may be withdrawn from the program if manuscripts
	are not received by the established deadlines.
