From a workshop sponsored by Sandia National Laboratories and the U. of New Mexico in Santa Fe, New Mexico in 2003, this publication features chapters from 11 of the 26 presenters plus four on the discussion sessions. Researchers from the US provide expanded chapters on the theoretical and empirical bases for systems that have humanlike qualities and interact with humans, namely physiological indicators of the cognitive state, computational cognitive modeling, automated knowledge capture, augmented cognition, and product applications. Language, comprehension, and memory are studied as well as text analysis, attention-centric notification systems, interactive narrative, and tutor simulation. The book is intended for those in the fields of cognitive science, computational modeling, intelligent systems, artificial intelligence, and human-computer interaction.

The leading thinkers from the cognitive science tradition participated in a workshop sponsored by Sandia National Laboratories in July of 2003 to discuss progress in building their models. The goal was to summarize the theoretical and empirical bases for cognitive systems and to present exemplary developments in the field. Following the workshop, a great deal of planning went into the creation of this book. Eleven of the twenty-six presenters were asked to contribute chapters, and four chapters are the product of the breakout sessions in which critical topics were discussed among the participants. An introductory chapter provides the context for this compilation.
Cognitive Systems thus presents a unique merger of cognitive modeling and intelligent systems, and attempts to overcome many of the problems inherent in current expert systems. It will be of interest to researchers and students in the fields of cognitive science, computational modeling, intelligent systems, artificial intelligence, and human-computer interaction.
