I've just read an overview of the Yale AI Project in the Winter 87 issue of
AI Magazine (shows you how deep my "to read" stack has become!).  I was
particularly interested in the work being done by Elliot Soloway on
applying story understanding techniques to program "comprehension".  Any
pointers to additional information on this work would be greatly
appreciated.  Pointers to other work on applying AI tools & techniques to
Software Engineering (esp. to qualitative assessment of large volumes of
PDL and code) would be appreciated.  If the volume of responses is big
enough, I'll mail a summary to the ailist.

Thanks,
