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.
