Talks, 1982-1993

It was Habermann's custom to have his computer science or CMU-related presentation materials filed by latest date in a Trips section, for secretarial retrieval at his prompt to deliver the topic presented on a particular occasion. Subjects include the futures of computer science and software engineering, achievements and goals of CMU's School of Computer Science (SCS) and Software Engineering Institute (SEI). Audiences addressed include CMU's Industrial Affiliates Program; the Department of Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA); IBM's Science Advisory Committee (IBM-SAC); the National Science Foundation (NSF); the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP); and the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). The three-quarter-box length Talks series is arranged chronologically, inverting Habermann's reverse-chronology filing. Habermann's office filed incoming and outgoing correspondence regarding a talk appearance within the folder for that talk, though secretarial method may have placed some letters or E-mail in what is now the Correspondence series. In reflection of original ordering, presentations on the Ada language and other topics given in the SEI's Immigration Course are included among the largely extra-university presentations.
