Entrepreneurial Aspirations

After forming the new company, Recom was awarded NASA contracts, which eventually grew to 50 percent of the company's business. Two companies have spun-off from Recom, both of which have their basis in NASA technology. The first is Attention Control Systems, Inc. with utilizes intelligent planning software that Recom developed for NASA Ames Computational Sciences Division in a hand-held planner used as an aid in cognitive rehabilitation of brain injury patients. The second is MiraNet, Inc. who uses CLIPS as the foundation for WEXpert, the first rules based help system on the Web.
