This Presidential Young Investigator Award is for support               of Bruce Porter at the University of Texas at Austin.  Porter's                 research is focused on the construction and use of computer                     programs which are capable of learning and solving problems with                considerable autonomy.  Such programs are capable of acquiring                  significant knowledge and evolving into effective "expert systems."                     The significance of this research is that effective                     computer systems in a wide variety of applications must utilize                 extensive and specific knowledge about the application - not just               general algorithmic or problem solving techniques.  Computer                    systems such as those developed by Porter, capable of learning and              acquiring knowledge independently, will play a key role.  The                   Presidential Young Investigator Awards provide research funding to              attract and support young researchers of the highest quality in                 the university environment.
