  1. An Uncoupled Interface to Soar using SML Pearson, Marinier, Stokes Dunham, Voigt

  2. System Architecture Soar Kernel Soar 8.6 Kernel (C) gSKI Higher-level Interface (C++) Encodes/Decodes function calls and responses in XML (C++) ElementXML SML Soar Markup Language Encodes/Decodes function calls and responses in XML (C++) ElementXML Client-side gSKI interface (C++, with wrapper for Java, etc) Client gSKI Application Application (any language)

  3. Features • All the advantages of gSKI • Embedded or socket connection • Multiple language support for applications • Tools should “just work” with new versions • No need to recompile or relink • Graceful degradation of functionality

  4. Why SML + gSKI? • Why not SGIO? • SGIO is not gSKI • Why not C API • Not robust, poor encapsulation • Doesn’t hide enough details from user • Not much easier than directly working with raw kernel calls

  5. Status • Identified 26 common gSKI functions for environments (Tic-Tac-Toe, Eaters, TankSoar, and even UT) • Kernel-side ElementXML support mostly finished • Client-side gSKI layer in progress • Socket implementation in progress

  6. Future • Java wrapper for Client-side gSKI • Expand gSKI support to include functions necessary for debugger • Applications • Java Eaters • Java TankSoar • Java debugger
