The idea for another conference on the theme of Infrared Astronomy
with Arrays actually goes back to March 1987. At a party held in my
home at the end of the Hilo conference, excitement was running high
and everyone present was in favor of another meeting. I recall
suggesting to Al Fowler that the next meeting could be in Tucson.
Despite Al's reply to the effect that Hawaii was a much nicer
location, a meeting was held in Tucson three years later. That
meeting focussed more on the astrophysics which had been
accomplished with the detectors, rather than on techniques and
methods. However, it was already apparent in February of 1990 that
a new generation of larger m arrays would soon supersede the 64x64
class of devices and so, having just moved from the UK Infrared
Telescope unit in Hawaii to join with Eric Becklin in his move to
UCLA, it seemed to me that another Hilo-style conference was
appropriate, and Eric agreed.
