    International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Greetings from the ICASSP-96 Technical Committee,

UPDATE:
******

    1)  The ICASSP '96 technical program is now on the WWW in a searchable
        form, complete with abstracts.  While you search, you can also create
        a personalized schedule of papers to attend.  Check it out on the
        ICASSP '96 website at

                http://www.ee.gatech.edu/conferences/icassp96/

    2)  There are still some rooms available at the Marriott Marquis.  Some
        nights, however, are close to being sold out.  If you would like a
        room at the hotel and have not yet made your reservations, we encourage
        you to do so immediately.  When phoning, please make sure to identify
        yourself as an attendee to the IEEE International Conference on
        Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing.  There has been some
confusion,
        at times, with ISCAS, which is the week following ICASSP.  Since ISCAS
        has no rooms available for the week of ICASSP, some people have been
        told that the rooms for ICASSP were sold out.

    3)  If you ordered a paper copy of the proceedings and requested it to be
        mailed, you should be receiving it soon.  Mailing began on Friday,
        April 19, and is scheduled to be completed by Monday, April 22.


We are looking forward to welcoming all of you that will be coming to
ICASSP-96.
