Abstract

Tareski briefly outlines his education and recounts his decision to go to the National Science Foundation before discussing his work in the theoretical computer science program. In this context he describes the artificial intelligence orientation of the military agencies that funded computer science research and details the duties of a program officer. Tareski describes at length the proposal review process and the role of NSF in developing theoretical computer science. He concludes with some thoughts on Kent Curtis's management style.
