ARCOE aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners from core areas of Artificial Intelligence (Knowledge Representation and Reasoning, Contexts, and Ontologies) to discuss these kinds of problems and relevant results.

The journal serves as a forum favoring the dissemination of interdependent and interdisciplinary research involved in information retrieval, database, human-machine communication and artificial intelligence. The recent developments in these fields call for cross-discipline collaborations and perspectives. The I3 journal intends to promote inter-disciplinarity working at the development of common terminology, concepts, typologies, methods and ontologies and aiming at the identification of a unified perspective on research issues. The journal is disseminated both as a traditional paper publication (published by Cépaduès http://www.cepadues.com/) and as an electronic journal on the web (http://www.journal-i3.org/).

OpenCyc is back and better than ever! OpenCyc 2.0 is now available for download from SourceForge. You can also download OWL versions of the OpenCyc ontology, or search for and access OpenCyc content on the semantic web, accessing Cyc concepts via their URIs, at sw.opencyc.org.

Cyc is an artificial intelligence project that attempts to assemble a comprehensive ontology and knowledge base of everyday common sense knowledge, with the goal of enabling AI applications to perform human-like reasoning. The project was started in 1984 by Douglas Lenat at MCC and is developed by company Cycorp. Parts of the project are released as OpenCyc, which provides an API, RDF endpoint, and data dump under an open source license.

KSL conducts research in the areas of knowledge representation and automated reasoning in the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory of the Department of Computer Science at Stanford University. Current work focuses on enabling technology for the Semantic Web, hybrid reasoning, explaining answers from heterogeneous applications, deductive question-answering, representing and reasoning with multiple contexts, knowledge aggregation, ontology engineering, and knowledge-based technology for intelligence analysts and other knowledge workers.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE Participate in cutting-edge artificial intelligence, machine reasoning, knowledge modeling, and natural language processing research initiatives.

The DARPA Agent Markup Language (DAML) Program officially began in August 2000. The goal of the DAML effort is to develop a language and tools to facilitate the concept of the Semantic Web. Michael Pagels is the DARPA Program Manager for DAML. The DAML program will end in early 2006.
