John MaraistFaculty

Researcher and developer of artificial intelligence applications, in particular planning, scheduling and plan recognition. Areas of expertise also include formal techniques for programming languages and software engineering. I've worked on several large DARPA programs including: ``Mission-Oriented Resilient Cloud'' (2011-14) for robust computer networks, ``META'' (2010-11) for probabilistic formal verification of hardware systems; ``National Cyber Range'' (2009-10) for developing a standard national testbed for computer and network security; ``Integrated Learning'' (2006-2010) for recognizing and learning user intent from single-shot observation of actions; ``Deep Green'' (2008-2009) for augmenting in-progress battlefield tactical analysis with scenario simulation, and ``Self-Reconfiguring Systems'' (2006-2007) for defense against insider threats on computer networks. Have also participated in a number of SBIR programs, including the Phase II DARPA SBIR ``ELADIS'' (Extremely Low Attention Demand Information Systems, 2009-2010). Developed a generalized logic engine for rapid deployment of specialized scheduling solutions. Have also worked on university faculties pursuing research in programming language semantics. Specialties: Planning & scheduling, plan recognition, constraint processing systems, software engineering, design patterns. Programming languages: Lisp, Perl, Java, Haskell, C, ML, SQL dialects. Other programs: Emacs, LaTeX/BibTeX, Allegro Lisp/Prolog, CVS, SVN, Wordpress, gnuplot.
