AI is still comparatively young, and like every young interdisciplinary area, it evolves as new ideas and insights are revealed and new methods and techniques become available. IHMC researchers James Allen, Kenneth Ford, Clark Glymour, Patrick Hayes, Choh Man Teng, Brent Venable, and Yorick Wilks actively are interested in clarifying the philosophical foundations of AI and cognitive science. Rethinking the aims of AI Traditionally, the goal of artificial intelligence was the creation of a ‘human-level’ mechanical intelligence, a kind of simulated human being that could pass the Turing Test...

IHMC’s has pioneered the notion of Agile Computing – an approach to creating distributed networked systems that are adaptive, resilient, and opportunistic. Research in this area has ranged from intelligent network transport protocols to novel distributed coordination algorithms.

IHMC’s has pioneered the notion of Agile Computing – an approach to creating distributed networked systems that are adaptive, resilient, and opportunistic. Research in this area has ranged from intelligent network transport protocols to novel distributed coordination algorithms. Much of this research has been in support of austere networking environments such as disaster recovery and tactical military networks. Exploiting research in intelligent systems and software agents contribute significantly to enhance performance of the overall system. At IHMC, this research is led by Niranjan Suri. Research in software agents and mobile agents were the foundation...
