Dissertation Meeting 3:00pm Monday 3 Jan 1994 The main point of discussion was the IEEE TPDS reviews that we got back. We also discussed the research contributions of FT-Linda; Rick agreed to them as discussed in [contributions]. We will wait to see exactly what the IEEE editor needs, and when, to decide exactly what to do, and when to do it, with regards to getting back our revised submission. In the next week, while Rick is gone, Dave will look at the TPDS issues but mainly work on his dissertation outline and introduction.
