"MUSIC INFORMATION PROCESSING -- a new application for operations research"
by Elaine Chew (echew@usc.edu)

ABSTRACT: The goal of the article is twofold: first, to introduce the
topic of computer modeling of music information processing by humans
and the potential impact of Operations Research methods in various
aspects of this endeavor; and second, to introduce the Spiral Array
model, a mathematical model for tonality, and to summarize some recent
work on algorithms for problems in music perception and cognition
based on the Spiral Array representation.
