I have just received a travel grant for twenty or so stipends covering airfare
from the National Science Foundation so that U.S. residents can attend the
ACM/SIGIR International Conference on Research and Development in Information
Retrieval, to be held in Grenoble, France on June 13-15, 1988.

The conference will include the topics of retrieval system modeling, artificial
intelligence and information retrieval, evaluation techniques, hardware
developments for retrieval systems, natural language processing, database
management and information retrieval, user interfaces, and advanced
applications.

Anyone interested in receiving a travel stipend should contact me.  The deadline
for applying for a travel stipend is March 1, 1988.

Submission of papers (four copies of either a full paper of not more than 20-25
pages, or an extended abstract of about ten pages) with a complete author
identification and an abstract of about one hundred words must be submitted
by January 15, 1988 to:
     Professor Gerard Salton
     Department of Computer Science
     4130 Upson Hall
     Cornell University
