Current readership consists mainly of computer scientists and engineers with interest in biomedical and clinical research, and of physicians with interest in medical informatics. AI in Medicine is a broad subject area which encompasses almost all research areas in artificial intelligence. For the purposes of this mailing list, AI in Medicine may be defined as "computed-based medical decision support" (or "computer-assisted medical decision making"). This definition may be expanded to include AI-based approaches to computer-assisted medical instruction. According to this definition, topics such as billing systems and hospital/medical office information retrieval systems clearly remain outside the scope of this forum. There are some borderline topics which cannot readily be classified under AI in Medicine, yet have clear connections to both artificial intelligence and medical practice. Processing and interpretation of medical images and signals are among those subject areas, and the current readership of this list contains a substantial number of researchers working in these fields. These borderline subject areas will remain within the scope of the list, as long as the focus lies on the artificial intelligence aspects, and not the detailed engineering principles. Who may join: any individual or organization with internet or bitnet mailing addresses may join.

Any activity by AJBS-L subscribers which would normally be conducted between business and economics faculty, students, and business practictioners is allowed and encouraged, and definitely not restricted in any manner. The faculty and students of colleges of business at the university level are expected and required to closely interact and assist the business community. Therefore, as AJBS-L editor and as a full-time business faculty member, I welcome and encourage full AJBS-L participation from the business community. B. Present Activities of AJBS-L 1. E-mail Once a user subscribes to AJBS-L, (s)he may send mail to the list for distribution to all its members. All members of the mailing list will receive a copy of each piece of mail sent to the list. All of the mail that is received and redistributed by the list is cataloged and stored in a database that can be searched or retrieved by individuals with access to AJBS-L. In order to prevent "rapid-fire" random e-mail transmissions, all messages are relayed to the AJBS-L editor for a weekly (normally every Monday) batch mail release. In addition, each subscriber may disable the automatic AJBS-L e-mail transmission to their site and download logfiles of each month's traffic. 2. AJBS-L Filelist Datafiles are available for downloading. The objective is to develop a clearinghouse of information on the business and economic systems of Eastern European countries. To receive the current listing of files, send the following to the LISTSERV (not to AJBS-L), with the following: GET AJBS-L FILELIST a) File Downloads GET filename filetype AJBS-L For example, GET AJBS-L INDEX b) File subscriptions Specialized information or information which is too large for normal e-mail is placed in AJBS-L datafiles for downloading by subscribers. Details of the current datafiles are found in AJBS-L INDEX. You may "subscribe" to a datafile in one of two ways: 1) automatic downloading of the entire file to your address with each update; 2) automatic notification that the file has been updated. You may terminate this file subscription upon demand. Send the following to the LISTSERV (not to AJBS-L) at PUCC: 1) To download one file, one time, without subscribing: GET filename filetype AJBS-L Example, GET AJBS-L INDEX 2) To receive automatic file downloads (AFD=automatic file distribution) upon file updates: AFD ADD filename filetype Example: AFD ADD AJBS-L INDEX 3) To cancel automatic file downloads: AFD DEL filename filetype 4) To receive automatic file update information (FUI): FUI ADD filename filetype 5) To cancel automatic file update information: FUI DEL filename filetype 6) To receive a list of files to which you are subscribed: AFD LIST or FUI LIST 4.

Coordinator: David G. Macneil APOGEES%FRAIX11.BITNET@VM1.NODAK.EDU Mailing list for the study of critical and strategic information management. The objective is to identify information of long-term value to an organization and to develop realistic methodologies and policies of management (data bases, ethics policy, education, supervisory systems...). In APOGEES, we share the creation of business information supervising systems. We discuss methodologies suitable to the management and development of technological information through supervisory divisions. People from all fields of sciences, management, information technology, computer science, and so on, are welcome including managers who are concerned with several critical items when making their business decisions. BitNet users can subscribe by sending an application note to BAUMARD@FRAIX11 or by sending mail to LISTSERV@FRMOP11 with the body/text of the message: SUB APOGEES your_full_name where "your_full_name" is your real name, not your login Id.

ARACHNET@acadvm1.uottawa.CA [Last Updated 12-October-1991] A Loose Association of Electronic Discussion Groups and Electronic Journals of Interest to Scholars. There are more than 600 discussion groups, newsletters, digests and electronic journals devoted to topics of scholarly interest. As more scholars come on-line, the size of these groups, the diversity of material they have to offer, and their total number are all bound to increase. These groups could benefit from a loose confederation that would allow them to share resources easily without imposing any kind of restrictions on their manner of operation. Arachnet is such a confederation. Arachnet is a ListServ list, Arachnet@Uottawa.BITNET or ARACHNET@ACADVM1. Uottawa.CA if you are on the Internet. All editors of discussion groups, newsletters, digests and electronic journals are invited to be members. On its file-server, Arachnet will contain a current list of its member groups, descriptions of each group, and lists of files they hold. As well as the current Directory of E-mail Based Conferences and Electronic Journals. Arachnet's fileserver will also hold various information files pertaining to the creation of e-serials. The conversational component will be a means by which editors of new groups can receive help from their colleagues on questions of editorial policy and the social/ethical aspects of electronic conferencing. Arachnet is not intended to replace Lstown-L@INDYCMS which is a discussion list for listowners to discuss technical aspects of Listserv based discussion group management. Arachnet will be an unedited list but will accept postings only from Arachnet subscribers.

Moderator: GROSS@BCVMS.BITNET ARPANET-BBOARDS@MC.LCS.MIT.EDU ARPANET-BBOARDS@LCS.MIT.EDU Redistribution address for all known BBoards on the ARPANET. The guidelines for postings are somewhat loose. The ostensible purpose of the list is to distribute: (a) emergency notices ("Southern California just slid into the Pacific, machines at ISI and UCSD will be down for a few days"), and (b) notices of "academic interest", such as seminar and symposium announcements. Advertisements and for-profit notices are not appropriate (the DoD would get upset, among other considerations). A touchy borderline case is job offerings. The practice has been to accept postings from universities (the research community) and the research oriented military installations (the people paying for our hardware) but to refuse postings from private companies. The (shaky) rationale behind this is that university and military job offerings are "research opportunities" as opposed to for-profit advertisements (ie, joining the army or a university is not the way to get rich). Anyone is welcome to redistribute Arpanet-BBoards; it takes some of the (considerable) load off of MC's mailer. But please don't do it without sending a message to the -Request address first. There are Archive copies of every message ever sent to the list but no guarantee is made that they will be online or available at any particular time. The current archive file, such as it is, can be found as "COMAIL;BBOARD ARCHIV" on MC.LCS.MIT.EDU.

Potential members include artists, art-administrators, writers, theorists, students, teachers. The aim of the list is to encourage contributions from all who have dipped a toe into these waters and found them congenial, but who know not where to turn next. The idea is that alliances will be formed, projects launched, funding gained, technology utilised, ideas launched and wild speculation indulged in. I hope that art projects will be instigated via this list. It is within my desire for the list that it evolves. The list encompasses: *Projects *New work *Events *Collaborations *Funding *Technology *Shows *Jobs *Conferences *Proposals *Organisations *Information *Publications *Education *Wild speculation ARTNET provides a forum for the discussion of ART that is concerned with: network; installation; project; communication; temporary; ad-hoc; transient; mobile; time-based; formless; de- centred. I call this PERIPATETIC art. I define peripatetic art thus: The art or action of creative endeavour with lack of fixed base. There is no fixed centre which claims to have 'the knowledge'. All projects involve some aspect of lack of enclosure; the promotion of action without centre. Peripatetic art tends towards the transient, the time based, the mobile. Peripatetology is as much about receiving the action, the project, as it is about initiating it. I am concerned with improving communication amongst those working in these and related areas. By its nature this kind of work often does not lend itself to easy documentation or definition. The concept mooted here, and encapsulated in the term 'peripatetic', has by its very nature a changeable agenda. I hope that in action we will create new ways of working alongside some very old human desires.

This list provides a general magazine type information exchange and discussion area. As in any specialist magazine there will be much of interest to subscribers and also some irrelevance. Although not in any way subscription/geographically limited, the focus of the list is intended to be the UK art community. It is hoped that the list will stimulate the use of network resources. The idea is that alliances will be formed; projects launched; funding gained; technology utilised; ideas launched and wild speculation indulged in. ART-SUPPORT is about ART, not technology.

Topics for the list can range from "what is good" to "what happens after death" to "is there a god". This list is designed to be open to members of ALL religious and political faiths or non-faiths; we do not discriminate based on religion, race, gender, sexual preference, handicap, et cetera. The list is open for all discussion pertaining to ideological, religious, moral, and ethical topics. There are only four general rules: 1. Treat everyone's faith as if it were as sacred as your own. In fact, to be safe, treat their faiths BETTER than your own. 2. Excessively rude, obnoxious, or abusive posting will not be tolerated. 3. Personal attacks will NOT be tolerated. Take your fights to e-mail where they belong, NOT in public. 4. Due to the varied nature of computer systems, please take into account that not everyone has the time or disk space to read several thousand lines of BELIEF-L mail per day. If you have a large amount of material to send to the list, please do one or more of the following: [a] Announce that you have something you'd like to discuss, and solicit opinions from from the list as to whether it would be o.k. to bring it up. [b] Post in reasonably-sized "chunks" -- by my definition, in the range of 200 lines, once or twice a day at the most. [c] If you will be reposting or crossposting material from another source, announce that you have it, and offer to send copies to interested parties. The first "rule" is really a guideline. Proselytizing is OK, so long as you remember that you get what you dish out. With respect to the second rule, please remember that you are a professional, and professionals don't get abusive to others. If you violate the other rules, in the opinion of the List Owners, more than twice, you will be asked to stop. If you continue to be abusive, you will be removed from the list. By signing on to this list, you acknowledge your right to critically respond to other's ideologies; you also acknowledge that your own ideologies can be critically responded to. You agree to abide by the rules of the list, insofar as they are listed above, and may be added to in the future as need be. You acknowledge the right of the list owners to have you removed from the list if you fail to abide by the rules. Further, you agree that this list and all material herein is PRIVATE PROPERTY, and will not engage in cross-list or cross-person posting without prior permission, which will only be obtained publicly on the list. The opinions expressed on this list do not, unless explicitly stated, reflect the opinions of the United States, the universities or organizations of the members of this list, and are only the personal opinions of the list members.
