Three lions on the shirt, 22 robots on the pitch
Article Abstract:
The RoboCup 98 initiative, which is running at La Cite des Sciences et de l'Industrie in Paris, France, is designed to give a focus to artificial intelligence and robotics researchers. It will involve robots playing in around 100 teams in four different leagues, and will allow researchers to test their technologies against those developed by their counterparts in other countries. It has been necessary to simplify the rules of football, but the initiative's organizers aim to produce a robotic team able to beat the human world champions.

Virtual happiness for all
Article Abstract:
Electronic mail is revolutionizing the way travellers communicate. Travellers have traditionally had to rely on uncertain Poste Restante arrangements, but electronic mail now allows them to establish immediate contact with members of their family and with others with whom they need to communicate. Electronic mail allows travellers to be more casual in making arrangements, as they do not need to be in a particular place at a particular time to collect their Poste Restante.
