Current CIMDS Projects [Past Projects]

A-Match - A-Match, the interface to the RETSINA Matchmaker, provides a web interface for users to advertise their agents, customize agents, find other agents, and query them.
AFOSR PRET: Information Fusion for Command and Control: The Translation of Raw Data To Actionable Knowledge and Decision - We are conducting a multidisciplinary research effort to develop the next generation of information fusion systems.
AMC Barrelmaster Scheduling - Integrated management of airlift and tanker missions at the USAF Air Mobility Command.
Adaptive Web-Based Information Gathering and Filtering
Agent Storm - Agent Storm is a scenario where agents autonomously coordinate their team-oriented roles and actions while executing a mission.
Agent Transaction Language for Advertising Services - A DAML-based language for advertising and locating agents, ontologies, and other Web entities.
Agent-based Composition of Behavioral Models - This project focuses on accurately modeling human physical behaviors; these models are used 1) to create computer generated forces (CGFs) that exhibit human-like behavior and 2) to recognize physical behaviors performed by trainees in a MOUT (Military Operations in Urban Terrain) team training simulation.
Aircraft Maintenance - A wearable software system that uses RETSINA agents to assist in the process of documenting and making repairs to aircraft.
Bazaar - we are developing an adaptive, multi-issue negotiation model capable of exhibiting a rich set of negotiation behaviors for electronic commerce
Bend Sequence Planner - Finds the best sequence of bending operations and repositionings of the part in the robot gripper to make a bent sheet metal part.
BendCad Modeler - Sheet metal design system for the Intelligent Bending Workstation
COALA - We are developing a model of inter-organizational electronic commerce.
Cooperative Attack Munition Real Time Assessment - We are developing the algorithms required to achieve cohesive, flexible and robust coordination of large teams of autonomous Wide Area Search Munitions (WASMs) that can be controlled by a small number of human operators.
Coordinators - The DARPA COORDINATORS program defines a challenging multi-agent application, with agents operating in a highly dynamic environment, where no agent has a complete view of the problem.
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.
Discovery - We are developing an autoconfiguration mechanism for agents and infrastructures.
Electronic Commerce
Fine Motion Planner - The fine-motion planner computes a sequence of robot moves to safely unload the workpiece from the bending machine.
Grasping Planner - Sheet metal grasp planning for the Intelligent Bending Workstation.
IBM ITA: Human-Agent Teamwork Models - We are developing models of human-agent teamwork for implementation in software agent systems.
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.
Language for Advertisement and Request for Knowledge Sharing - A common agent capability description language (ACDL) for matching service-requesting software agents with service-providing software agents.
MIGSOCK - We are developing MIGSOCK, a Linux kernel module that re-implements TCP to make socket migration possible.
MINTEC - Supply chain management
MORSE - The MORSE project is a simulated range operation, designed to evaluate effectiveness of the cognitive models and agents, in order to improve individual and team performance.
Matchmaker - A middle agent that facilitates conections among agents that provide services and agents that request services.
Mobile Communications amongst Heterogeneous Agents - We are developing a multi-agent system for "Anyware" communications and display.
MokSAF - A software environment for route planning and team coordination.
Motion Planner
Pleiades - A project aimed at developing methods for automating negotiation among agents and implementing effective machine learning techniques.
Product Decomposition - a method of decomposing sheet-metal products into a few, easily manufactured parts
Profile-Based Scheduling Procedures - We are investigating approaches to constraint-posting scheduling.
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.
Reflective Agents with Distributed Adaptive Reasoning - The focus of the RADAR project is to build a cognitive assistant that embodies machine learning technology that is able to function without requiring expert tuning or specially trained users.
Reusable Environment for Task Structured Intelligent Network Agents - An architecture for developing distributed intelligent software agents that cooperate asynchronously to perform goal-directed information retrieval and information integration in support of a varie
Stacking Planner - Generates plans for polyhedral sheet metal parts.
Thales - Satellite visibility forecaster
Tooling Planner - Supports various decision making steps related to bending tools and press-brake setups.
Urban Search and Rescue - We are developing Hybrid Teams of Autonomous Agents: Cyber Agents, Robots and People (CARPs) to address the challenges of urban search and rescue.
WARREN - The WARREN system is a multi-agent application that is designed to help users monitor and manage their financial portfolio.
WebMate - A personal agent for World-Wide Web browsing that enhances searches and learns user interests.
