I found the concept rather intriguing. After hearing his lectures, I realized I needed to do some introductory reading on the subject to fully appreciate its potential. I am particularly interested in getting some references in the following areas: (1) introductory theory behind GA (2) its application to rule-based learning systems (3) its relation to and implementation as neural nets Thanks, Jason Rosenberg Mira Hershey Hall 801 Hilgard Avenue jason@cs.ucla.edu Los Angeles, CA 90024 {ihnp4,ucbvax}!ucla-cs!jason (213) 209-1806
