Past CIMDS Projects

AMC Barrelmaster Scheduling - Integrated management of airlift and tanker missions at the USAF Air Mobility Command.
Activelets: Web-Based Planning and Scheduling Services - We are developing planning, scheduling and user interface components that enable real-time collaborative planning and scheduling by mobile decision agents.
Agent Transaction Language for Advertising Services - A DAML-based language for advertising and locating agents, ontologies, and other Web entities.
AutoBrief - Generation of coordinated multimedia (natural language and information graphics) explanations from large and complex data sets.
Autonomous NonDestructive Inspector - Eddy current inspection of aircraft, precursor to CIMP
Backgage Hardware
Barrier-Based Stereoscopic Image Display System - variations on time-multiplexed parallax panoramagrams
CABINS - Case based scheduling.
CONCE - Concurrent Engineering
CORTES - CORTES is an integrated framework for production planning, scheduling and control (PSC). CORTES uses Constrained Heuristic Search to make PSC decisions.
Case-based Design Tool - Case-based design using influence graphs.
Computer-Assisted Seating System - investigate the relationship between seating surface shape and soft tissue distortion using direct measurements
Coordinated Reactive Agents - Problem solving through Coordinated Reactive Agents.
Crown Inspection Mobile Platform - Remote enhanced stereo visual inspection of aircraft
Daml-S - We are developing DAML as part of the Semantic Web initiative.
Daml-S (Semantic) Matchmaker - We have developed our Semantic Matchmaker, an entity that will allow web services to locate other services, using DAML-S, a DAML-based language for describing service capabilities.
Dirk's "J" Toolkit - Custom JAVA toolkit, user-interface for DITOPS/OZONE
Distributed Coordination of Resources - This project is investigating the issues associated with multi-agent resource coordination.
Dynamics of Complex Engineered Societies - in this project, researchers deal with scaling of the evolutionary search
Enterprise Integration for Global Manufacture for the 21st Century - An industrial project aimed at creating the new processes and technologies for managing and operating global manufacturing businesses in the dynamic market environment of the 21st century.
Generating Explanatory Captions for Information Graphics
HSTS Space Observatory Scheduler - HSTS has been developed and applied principally in the context of space-based observatory scheduling problems.
Headlamp Light Distribution Mapping - headlamp light distribution project for General Motors
Integrated Planning and Scheduling - We are investigating the development of techniques for tighter integration of planning and scheduling processes.
Integrated Process Planning/Production Scheduling - A blackboard-based agent architecture for supporting mixed-initiative decision-making and integration functionalities.
Integrating Intelligent Assistants into Human Teams (Joccasta) - A multi-disciplinary research project designed to increase the effectiveness of team decision making in joint planning tasks.
Intelligent Combinatorial Optimization - We are developing adaptive mechanisms to speed up Simulated Annealing search.
Intelligent Frame Buffer - A ring of networked computers, each of which has the ability to write to the same screen in real time.
Interoperability of Future Information Systems - We are developing techniques to help users diagnose and remedy network interoperability problems.
Micro-Opportunistic Scheduling - Work involving Micro-Boss: a dynamic finite capacity scheduling tool for supporting efficient just-in-time operation in complex manufacturing environments subject to rapidly changing conditions.
MokSAF - A software environment for route planning and team coordination.
Nesting Project
OZONE/DITOPS - Configurable/mixed-initiative scheduling systems
Object Systems for Knowledge Representation - We have developed object systems that help us use frame-like features in our software.
PERSUADER - A framework for intelligent computer-supported conflict resolution through negotiation/mediation.
Planning and Coordination in Virtual Extended Enterprises - A blackboard-based agent architecture for supporting flexible multi-level lateral and vertical planning and coordination functionalities across extended and virtual enterprises.
RETSINA Configuration Manager - We present the RETSINA Configuration Manager, RECoMa, which uses agent infrastructure to assist the multi-agent system administrator in allocating, launching, and monitoring a heterogeneous distributed agent system.
RETSINA Semantic Web Calendar Agent - We are Retsina Semantic Web Calendar Agent to assist in organizing and scheduling meetings between several individuals, and coordinating these meetings based on existing schedules maintained by MS Outlook.
Scheduling and Visualization - This project is investigating the development of next-generation environments for collaborative analysis and management of large-scale schedules.
Selective Dynamic Manipulation - A paradigm for interacting with visualizations that is based on the notion of physicalization, which uses the metaphor of creating ""physical"" objects to represent abstract data objects
Supply Chain Modeling and Analysis - The development of tools and techniques that enable modeling and analysis of emerging supply chain management strategies and practices.
System for Automated Graphics and Explanation - Mixed-initiative presentation system that supports visualization creation
Thales - Satellite visibility forecaster
Three Camera Video & Synthesis - create high-definition stereoscopic images from one high-resolution color camera and two low-resolution monochrome cameras
Vehicle Sound Pattern Recognition - Vehicular and "tap test" sound recognition
Visage - Prototype software environment for exploring and visualizing large amounts of diverse information
