This talk will comprise a review of AI research and other AI
activities that have and are being pursued at Edinburgh.  I will start
with a short history of the early days of AI in Edinburgh in the 1960s
and 1970s, the transition period in the mid to late 1970s and the
revival in 1980s.  Then, I will stress the basic research currently
being conducted within the Dept. of AI at the University of Edinburgh.
Some of the activities conducted within the AI Applications Institute
also in Edinburgh will also be discussed.  Finally, some thoughts on
the future of AI research at Edinburgh.
