           COSMIC is the  distribution  center  for  computer  software
           created  under  funding  from  the  National Aeronautics and
           Space Administration (NASA).  The  inventory  contains  over
           1200  programs.   Collections  of  program  abstracts can be
           mailed within the U.S. at no cost in  the  following  areas:
           Aerodynamics;   Artificial  Intelligence;   CAD/CAM;  Compo-
           sites; Computational Fluid Dynamics; Control Systems; Finite
           Element  Analysis;  Heat Transfer; Image Processing; Optics;
           Project Management;  Reliability; Satellite  Communications;
           Scientific  Visualization;  Trajectories;  Turbine Engineer-
           ing; and Utilities. Additionally,  COSMIC  Customer  Support
           will  perform a custom search of the inventory to help users
           identify programs in their area of interest and/or potential
           re-useable algorithms.

           Most COSMIC programs come with the source code.  Educational
           discounts may apply.  Members of the Federal Laboratory Con-
           sortium qualify for the "Software Exchange" program; details
           are available on request.

           New programs are added to the inventory on a monthly  basis.
           Contact  COSMIC  by  electronic  mail  to  receive  a  brief
           description of new programs.
