Simulated rubble field tests search and rescue robots, by
Byron Spice, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Science Editor. Nourbakhsh and his CMU colleague Katia Sycara, along with Michael Weiss, an information technology scientist at the University of Pittsburgh, have received a $1.4 million, four-year grant from the National Science Foundation to examine how robots, humans and intelligent agents can best work together.

Mobile Intelligent Agents, by John Geirland, in TheFeature, Dec 11 2002. "Meanwhile, university and corporate research labs are quietly developing infrastructure for a new generation of wireless agents. The Intelligent Software Agents Group at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania has developed a domain-independent toolkit for agent development called RETSINA (as in the Greek wine). Research professor Katia Sycara and her colleagues are building agents they hope will keep your car safely on the road and your social life securely on track."

Cyber-attack fears focus of national security forum, by Michael Yeomans, Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, October 10, 2002. One technology displayed was a new software program from the CMU Robotics Institute designed to trip up cyber-terrorists who attempt to shut down computer networks through so-called "denial-of-service" attacks by changing Internet addresses on the fly when an attack is detected. "We move the victim out of harms way," said Joseph Giampapa of the Robotics Institute. "It's a cat-and-mouse game."

The True Meaning of Service, by Kendall Grant Clark, in XML.com, July 17, 2002. "The idea is that high-level ontologies of web resources can be very useful things and, here's the kicker, web services are just a kind of web resource."

  • Katia Sycara was elected a Fellow of the American Association for Artificial Intelligence (AAAI) for her "significant contributions to case-based reasoning, autonomous agents, and multi-agent systems." One of a small select group of individuals elected each year, Sycara was recognized at the Fellows Dinner on July 30, during AAAI 2002 in Edmonton, Alberta Canada.
  • Katia Sycara of Carnegie Mellon University has been awarded the ACM SIGART Autonomous Agents Research Award for 2002. Dr. Sycara has made significant contributions to a number of subareas of agent research, including agent architectures, middle agents, and multi-agent negotiation.
  • Katia Sycara has been named representative of the DAML Service Coalition to the WWW consortium (W3C) Working Group on Web Service Architecture.
  • Semantic Web Challenge, the Semantic Web Working Symposium, Stanford University, Palo Alto, CA. July 2001. Winner: Rahul Singh, CMU Intelligent Software Agents Lab.
  • "Innovative Enterprise Decision Support System." Presented to the Office of Naval Research, our MURI sponsor, for Agent Storm.
