It was started in 1963 by John McCarthy , after he moved from Massachusetts Institute Of Technology to Stanford. From 1965 to 1980 , it was housed in the D.C. Power building (named after an executive of GTE ), in the foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains overlooking Stanford. During this period it was one of the leading centres for AI research. In 1980, its activities were merged into the university's Computer Science Department and it moved into Margaret Jacks Hall in the main Stanford campus. SAIL was reopened in 2004, with , Cognition , Computational Geometry , Computer Vision , Decision Theory , Distributed Systems , Game Theory , Image Processing , Information Retrieval , Knowledge Systems , Logic , Machine Learning , Multi-agent Systems , Natural Language , Neural Networks , Planning , Probabilistic Inference , Sensor Networks , and Robotics . EARLY YEARS The old SAIL building Photos of SAIL places and people , the D.C. Power Building, was located about 5 miles (8 km) from the main campus at 1600 Arastradero Road, midway between Page Mill Road and Alpine Road. The site was on a hill overlooking .

At one time, the SAIL system was a triple processor KL10/KA10/PDP-6. The SAIL system was shut down in 1991. . SEE ALSO REFERENCES EXTERNAL LINKS |
