Someone recently asked for information about upcoming meetings that relate to
human-computer interaction. The ACM SIGCHI Bulletin always contains a fairly
comprehensive listing of upcoming events, as well as calls for papers and
participation for upcoming meetings. 

Here's the text of what will appear in the October 1992 SIGCHI Bulletin 
(Volume 24, Number 4):

	International Workshop on Feature 
Interactions in Telecommunications 
Software Systems

St. Petersburg, Florida, USA. This workshop is 
planned to encourage researchers from a variety 
of specialties to apply their techniques to the 
feature interaction problem that arises in build-
ing telecommunications software systems. The 
feature interaction problem has been a major 
obstacle to the rapid deployment of new tele-
phone services. Each new feature added may in-
teract with many existing features, causing 
customer annoyance or total system break-
down. As the number of features grows to satis-
fy diverse needs of customers, managing feature 
interactions is approaching incomprehensible 
complexity. Contact Nancy Griffeth, Bellcore,
