ACM A.M. TURING AWARD
                             NOMINATIONS SOLICITED

Nominations are invited for the 1995 A.M. Turing Award.  This, ACM's
oldest and most prestigious award, is presented for contributions of
a technical nature to the computing community.  Although the long term
influences of the nominee's work are taken into consideration, there
should be a particular achievement which constitutes the principal
claim to the award.

The award carries a prize of $25,000 and the recipient is expected to
present an address which is published in an ACM journal.  Financial
support for the ACM A.M. Turing Award is provided by AT&T.

Nominations should include:

        1) A curriculum vitae, listing publications, patents, honors,
           other awards, etc.

        2) A letter from the principal nominator, which describes the
           work of the nominee, and draws particular attention to the
           contribution which is seen as meriting the award.

        3) Supporting letters from two other nominators.  The letters
           should not all be from from colleagues or co-workers who are 
           closely associated with the nominee, but preferably should
           come from individuals at more than one organization.

Nominations should be sent, in duplicate, by August 1, 1995, to
