Program Chair, 2nd IEEE Workstation Conference

Dear Dr. Stewart,

I would like to submit the following paper to the 2nd IEEE Conference on Computer Workstations:

Title: An Overview of the Etherphone System and its Applications
Authors: Daniel C. Swinehart, Douglas B. Terry, Polle T. Zellweger
Authors' address: Computer Science Laboratory, Xerox Palo Alto Research Center, 3333 Coyote Hill Road, Palo Alto, CA  94304

Six copies of the paper are enclosed for review by the conference committee.
Please note: a very similar version of this paper appeared as "An Experimental Environment for Voice System Development" in the 
IEEE Office Knowledge Engineering Newsletter 1, 1, February 1987.  That publication is not refereed and holds no copyright to the 
paper.  The editor, Fred Lochovsky of the University of Toronto Computer Systems Research Institute, did not object to its 
resubmission to the workstation conference.  If the paper is accepted, we expect to make additional changes and updates.
Thank you for your efforts as conference organizer.
                Sincerely,



                Polle Zellweger
