Title of the communication: Automatic Optical Monitoring of Blazar at Perugia Observatory
Preliminary abstract (12 lines max.): We report a summary of three years of CCD optical monitoring of a sample of about 30 blazars. The program is carried out with an Automatic Imaging Telescope which is able to observe every time the sky is clear. For a subset of the objects currently under monitoring, we present the light curves obtained during October 1995 to evidentiate the differences in the behavoir of the flaring activity between X-selected and Radio-selected BL Lac objects.
