The Distributed Artificial Intelligence Research Laboratory is part of the Department of Software and Information Systems at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. The lab, directed by Professor Anita Raja, is concerned with the design and development of reasoning techniques for resource-bounded single and multi-agent systems.  Lab members conduct research in meta-cognition,  monitoring and control of computation, safety in multi-agent systems, reinforcement learning, resource-bounded reasoning, and reasoning under uncertainty.
