Hi,

I assume you're referring to the Soar cognitive architecture?  The name
"Soar" stands for "State, Operator And Result", and is derived from the basic
execution cycle in Soar of taking a state, applying an operator and
generating a result.

Incidentally, the name "Soar" is now a proper name and not an acronym.
