SAC '94
=======


SAC '94 is the annual conference of the ACM Special Interest Group on
Applied Computing (SIGAPP). For the past eight years, SAC's have been a
primary forum for applied computing practitioners and researchers. Again
this year, SAC '94 will be held in conjunction with the 1994 ACM Computer
Science Conference in Phoenix. This will include participation in the CSC
Opening Ceremonies, ACM State of the Association Address, and CSC/SAC
Joint Session "Fuzzy Logic: Issues, Contentions and Perspectives,"
presented by Lofti Zadeh, University of California, Berkeley, on Tuesday,
March 8, from 8:30 - 10:00 A. M. The SAC program itself is preceded by
half-day tutorials on Sunday, March 6, afternoon. The SAC technical
program is a series of parallel tracks meeting 9:00 A. M. - 5:00 P. M.,
Monday, March 7, and Tuesday, March 8, and consists of sessions on
programming languages, logic programming, FORTH, software reuse, parallel
processing, scientific programming, artificial intelligence and databases,
genetic algorithms, fuzzy systems, and small systems.
