3160	 Rejuvenating Experimental Computer Science	 This report is based on the results of an NSF sponsored workshop held in Wasington D.C. on November . The co-authors of the report are Gordon Bell Digital Equipment Corporation Bernard A. Galler University of Michigan Patricia Goldberg IBM Corporation John Hamblen University of Missouri at Rolla Elliot Pinson Bell Telephone Laboratories and Ivan Sutherland California Institute of Technology. Also participating in the workshop were representatives of NSF and other government agencies. In addition to the authors a number of other people have contributed to the contents of this report. In preparation for the original workshop all doctorate-granting computer science departments in the nation were asked for comments and suggestions on the problems of experimental computer science. A version of the current report dated January was circulated to these departments and to a number of industrial and government groups for criticism. The editors and authors of this final version gratefully acknowledge the contribution of a large number of other people at all stages in the preparation of the report. Note Following this presentation of the report there is a position paper on the crisis in experimental computer science written by the ACM Executive Committee.
