Subject--PD-related IFAC symposium

The International Federation of Automatic Control (IFAC) is holding
symposium on Automated Systems Based on Human Skill (and
Intelligence), September 23-25, 1992 in Madison, Wisconsin.  According
to the symposium announcement, ``the objective of the symposium is to
bring together engineers, system designers, and end users, to bring
about a closer integration between users, who often possess specific
skills and designers who often seek designs to replace rather than
enhance skills.''

The symposium will address such topics as

       - aspects of skill-based manufacturing,
       - human work design criteria,
       - design of better systems,
       - valuation of alternative work structures and organizations, and
       - participation of people involved.
