Specifically, would you address the question of how the projected resource sharing is to be administered to assure equity among users and how these users would be selected. If this resource is to be largely restricted to the artificial intelligence community, can you establish the degree of the need for such a resource, On receipt of this information, we should then be able to arrange a project site visit, Would you, therefore, list dates between the last few weeks in March and the first two weeks in April which you would find impossible or extremely inconvenient, so that I might begin making arrangements, I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience, Sincerely, b Sark LAD Bernice Sacks Lipkin, Ph.D. Executive Secretary Comptuer and Biomathematical Sciences Study Section Research Grants Review Branch, DRG Room 357, Westwood Building 5333 Westbard Avenue Bethesda, Maryland 20014
