Information Processing Research

Abstract

This report documents DARPA-supported basic research in Carnegie Mellon University's Computer Science Department during the period 2 January 1985 through 31 May 1987, extended to 30 September 1987. Each chapter discusses one of seven major research areas. Sections within a chapter present the area's general context, the specific problems addressed, our contributions and their significance, and an annotated bibliography. Chapters 2 through 8 present in detail the seven major research areas: Distributed Processing, Image Understanding, Machine Intelligence, Programming Technology, Distributed Sensor Networks, Graceful Interaction, and Very Large Scale Integration systems Integration. The bibliographies present selected references that reflect the scope and significance of CMU's contributions to basic and applied computer science. Wherever possible, particularly for key reports, we have included abstracts.
