Electrical and Computer Engineering will give you the power to change the world. From providing clean, efficient energy to controlling digital data, from global communication to nanotechnologies, from robotics to entertainment, the future is being created by our graduates today. If you want to make a difference, study Electrical and Electronic Engineering or Computer Engineering at UC - the future is in your hands.

"This report describes some experiments in constructing a compiler that makes use of heuristic problem~solving techniques such as those incorporated in the General Problem Solver (GPS). The experiments were aimed at the dual objectives of throwing light on some of the problems of constructing more powerful programming languages and compilers, and of testing whether the task of writing a computer program can be regarded as a "problem" in the sense in which that term is used in GPS. The present paper is concerned primarily with the second objective--with analyzing some of the problem-solving processes that are involved in writing computer programs. At the present stage of their development, no claims will be made for the heuristic programming procedures described here as practical approaches to the construction of compilers. Their interest lies in what they teach us about the nature of the programming task." JACM, 10, 493-506.
