Abstract
A brief description and history of the SMAC computer program, including its relationship to CRASH, is presented. The rationale for a continued interest in the SMAC approach to reconstruction is discussed. Modifications and refinements that have contributed to the current capabilities of SMAC-87 are briefly described, representative results of applications are presented and planned future developments are defined.
