1509 - Summary/Objective
1510 -
151001 - Follow up ref SDS 12 0000, ref SDS 10 0000.
151002 -
151003 - Decided to submit the article on Asilomar Redux, ref OF 1 line 6,
151004 - edited today at ref SDS 14 3432, for David's consideration of a use
151005 - for increased microprocessing power other than for games, per our
151006 - discussion on 970603, ref SDS 7 4486.  This is needed to support
151007 - technology for organic subject structures and multiple diary databases
151008 - that comprise "knowledge space."  It provides a nexus between the
151009 - Wintel argument for PCs and the NC solution being developed by Oracle,
151010 - Sun and Netscape, as related in the recent Fortune article, ref SDS 13
151011 - 0020.  This can be promoted with a conference on technology to support
151012 - the weaknesses of human cognition and leverage its strengths.
151013 -
151014 - Prepared and submitted via Internet ref DIT 1 line 30 transmitting ref
151015 - OF 1 line 10.

151017 -     [See follow up letter to Dave on calculating risk/benefit of
151018 -     Communication Metrics, ref SDS 15 2909.]

151020 -
151021 -  ..
151022 - POIMS - Personal Organizational Integrated Management Support
151023 -
151024 - This proposal includes language to explain the role of POIMS to bridge
151025 - PC/NC issues, ref DIT 1 line 43.  It uses the idea of communication
151026 - developed at ref SDS 1 8492.
151027 -
151028 -
151029 -  ..
151030 - Intel Sponsor Seminar on Leadership and Technology, Killer Applictn.
151031 -
151032 - Follow up ref SDS 4 3018.
151033 -
151034 - I raise the idea of Intel sponsoring a seminar, ref DIT 1 2197, could
151035 - even be internal, to focus on how technology can be configured to
151036 - accomplish Dave's goal in his 1991 Byte interview, as discussed in our
151037 - meeting on 950927. ref SDS 2 8943
151038 -
151039 - Since this goal was not addressed at Asilomar, and since the U.S. Army
151040 - Corps of Engineers' report dated 970328 says that Communication
151041 - Metrics produces effective business intelligence, and further since
151042 - everyone is looking for a "killer application," ref SDS 13 2209 Intel
151043 - could use the seminar to establish a strong position on technology
151044 - that solves the time/information problem.
151045 -
151046 -      [On 980307 Andy Grove's book "Only Paranoid Survive" indicates
151047 -      support for ideas proposed for management seminar. ref SDS 17
