[comp.ai.shells] Looking for SOAR and CLIPS

manli@cs.uh.edu (Man L. Li) (04/06/89)

We are looking for SOAR and CLIPS for our research project.  Can somebody
let us know how to obtain them.  Hopefully they are free or at minimal cost
for educational purpose.  Thanks a lot.

According to my most recent information, CLIPS is available from NASA. 
You can contact them at: 


	 COSMIC
	 382 E. Broad St
	 Athens, GA 30602
	 (404)-542-3265

  The last information that I have indicates that CLIPS is free to Govenment 
  Agencies and is available to others for a fee.  I'm not sure how accurate 
  this information is, as it is approx. 1 year old, so contact them to be 
  sure. (I work for the Government, so we were able to get the free copy:-)

CLIPS, the shell developed by NASA, is distributed and
supported by COSMIC.  The address and phone number are:

University of Georgia
382 East Broad Street
Athens GA 30602
Phone: 404-542-3265 / Telex: 490-999-1619

The fee for a commercial company is around $200.  I don't
know about educational discounts.

>CLIPS:

I normally don't read the ai groups, but I follow them for a couple
dozen postings then 'u'.

COSMIC isn't on the net, but one of their employees is.  You can send email
to him: Al Lester : alester@uga.bitnet (assuming you have a mailer which
understands domains).  COSMIC needs to get a demand.  But they can't
just mail or use anonymous FTP due to technology trade restrictions placed
on it (and I am afraid AI shells is one of those technologies).

CLIPS is relatively cheap: $200 on an IBM PC disk, documenattion is $54.
Written in C.  I can OCR the description if you want it.

Another gross generalization from

  resident cynic at the Rock of Ages Home for Retired Hackers:
  "Mailers?! HA!", "If my mail does not reach you, please accept my apology."

According to our copy of SOAR, email to soar@h.cs.cmu.edu
for requesting a copy of soar or general help.
