The Soar project is an interdisciplinary, multi-site, research group that is
attempting to build a system capable of general intelligent behavior.  Our
long-term goal is to build a system that is capable of working on the full
range of tasks -- from highly routine to extremely difficult open-ended
problems -- and of employing the full range of problem solving, knowledge
representation, learning, and perceptual-motor capabilities required for
these tasks.  In this talk I will describe the current status of the
project, including the version of the system currently implemented (Soar
4.4) and the results that have been generated to date, and describe our
research plans for the next couple of years.
