Current Projects

	Neptune A user-centric, integrated planning and scheduling system that assists the user in exploring the rich space of plans and associated resource assignment options in complex, real-world domains. Each component of the system (user, planner, and scheduler) reacts to the actions of the other, resolving conflicts, and iteratively refining the solution until acceptable.
	Task Assistant Task Assistant is a flexible, web-based workflow application that enables an organization to move its operating procedures from manuals and human memories into living collaborative artifacts. Task Assistant is fully collaborative, allowing multiple users to simultaneous edit, build, or execute workflows.

Past Projects

	Cognitive Assistant that Learns and Organizes As part of DARPA’s Personalized Assistant that Learns (PAL) program, SRI and team members are working on developing a next-generation "Cognitive Agent that Learns and Organizes" (CALO).
	TransPAL: Transitioning PAL Technologies The TransPAL project is transitioning a number of technologies developed on the DARPA PAL program for use by various members of the Armed Services.
