Abstract
The Fifth Annual Computer Personnel Research Conference was sponsored by The Special Interest Group on Computer Personnel Research (SIGCPR) of the Association of Computing Machinery (SIGCPR was formerly the Computer Personnel Research Group) in cooperation with the Computer Science Center of the University of Maryland. The Conference was held at the Center of Adult Education at the University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland, June 26-27, 1967.The purpose of the annual computer personnel research conferences is to identify and discuss the common problems and needs of those individuals concerned with the selection, training, evaluation and other aspects of computer personnel management. Research and problems reported are of interest to personnel managers, computer installation managers and researchers involved with personnel administration of computer centers.Representative papers are presented throughout the Conference followed by open discussion. The papers are published in these Proceedings and constitute what is considered by the SIGCPR Steering Committee to be the most significant work brought forth this past year.SIGCPR seeks to explore computer personnel problems and provide access to a constantly growing body of computer personnel data gathered nationally at all levels in the computer field. Its membership includes representatives of large corporations, university groups, government organizations, small companies and service bureaus whose interests include scientific, business, and research programming and computing. Further information on the group's activities may be obtained from Mr. Robert A. Dickman, Applied Physics Laboratory, The Johns Hopkins University, Silver Spring, Maryland, 20910.
