Intelligent Software Agents - Here, researchers explore multi-agent planning and scheduling, multi-agent learning, multi-agent negotiation, and decision support for human teams

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.	Adaptive Interoperability of Multiple Heterogeneous Agents - To enable requester agents to find provider agents in environments with heterogeneous and dynamic information services, we have developed middle agents which serve to increase agent interoperability.
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.
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.
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.	Matchmaker - A middle agent that facilitates conections among agents that provide services and agents that request services.
Pleiades - A project aimed at developing methods for automating negotiation among agents and implementing effective machine learning techniques.	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
WARREN - The WARREN system is a multi-agent application that is designed to help users monitor and manage their financial portfolio.
