VII. External
Relations 1973-1992
Records
History
Through his international consulting work and computer industry
and academic associations, Habermann developed a network of sources for funding
CMU academic programs and graduate student research in computer science applied
toward corporate or governmental contracting. This network was instrumental in
the establishment and maintenance of CMU's Software Engineering Institute. Represented
associations include contacts with ASCII and other Japanese corporations regarding
the foundation of a CMU computer science institute in Japan (see especially the
folders on CMU president Richard Cyert's fact-finding mission to Japan); proposed
founding of CMU institutes in robotics and computer science research by Westinghouse
and the National Science Foundation, respectively; and Siemens' interest in the
Micon system, Gandalf software, and neural networks research. Other CMU external
relations are represented: the university's joining the Computing Research Board
in an effort to give the computer science research community a stronger voice
in national policy; a proposed association with the Intergrand company to develop
and distribute CMU software; and the Open Software Foundation, a leaguing of seven
leading computer companies toward a standard software environment, from which
CMU sought exportability of the MACH system.
Scope and Contents
Notes
The External Relations series (three-quarters of a box in length)
was assembled from folder sets titled Funding and External Relations in Habermann's
office files. The series is arranged in alphabetical order by title of corporation
or government agency, then by date of association. Researchers examining CMU's
external relations with sponsoring agencies should review the Teaching series
for evaluatory materials regarding externally funded academic programs. See also
the Talks series for presentations given at meetings of CMU's Industrial Affiliates
Program in 1986 and 1987.
