Laboratory Logo


The Computational Intelligence Research Laboratory (CIRL) of the University of Oregon has a research focus on basic questions in artificial intelligence including search, knowledge representation, and reasoning. Emphasis is on planning, constraint satisfaction, and commonsense reasoning. Laboratory faculty members participate in some Computer and Information Sciences Department activities and shared recreational activities.

The laboratory is affiliated with On Time Systems, a spin-off company commercializing some of the technology developed at CIRL. CIRL provides financial support for students and fosters an intimate relationship among a small group of researchers working in closely-related areas and the graduate students they supervise. CIRL currently has openings for talented students. In the long term, we are committed to having no more than twice as many students as faculty members.

Development

CIRL is a research laboratory, and doesn't undertake development projects, per se. However, On Time Systems, Inc. is a startup company that is developing practical, fielded, applications of CIRL's optimization technology in areas ranging from aircraft routing to scheduling of ship construction.
