Denning on the topic "Is computer science science?" The tech report was issued through RIACS here at Ames. It will allegedly appear as an editorial in the Oct., 1987, CACM. The title is something like "Paradigms Crossed" -- referring to the crossed paradigms of design vs. experimentation, or engineering vs. science. I would rate this "real good" on a scale of 1 to 10, and I urge interested parties to watch for and read it. Mike Shafto
