Experience with INTELLECT: Artificial Intelligence Technology Transfer

Editor’s Note: At the 1983 National Conference, there was a special session on Technology Transfer. Six speakers from different industrial organizations presented their personal views on the process of turning the results of AI restarch and development into commercial practice. Unfortunately there was not time to produce and distribute a written record of the Symposium for the attendees. To correct that problem, we will publish edited versions of the six oral presentations, at the rate of one or two per issue. The following two articles, by Larry Harris of Artificial Intelligence Corporation and S. Jerrold Kaplan of Teknowledge, inaugurate the series Other speakers at the Symposium were Reid Smith (Schlumberger), Stephen Polit (DEC), Ed T yl a or (TRW) and Earl Sacerdoti (formerly Machine Intelligence Corporation, now with Teknowledge).
