Now here in Part 2 we plunge deep into the nitty-gritty, and describe the multiple aspects of the CogPr

ts. Each instance of a MindAgent has its own AttentionValue, which is used to schedule processor time within the Unit. That scheduling is done by a Scheduler object which controls a collection of worker threads, whose size is a system parameter. The Scheduler aims to allocate worker threads to the MindAg

to discuss the explicit role of MindAgents in economic transactions. This has to do with the integration of economic attention allocation with the Scheduler that schedules the core MindAgents involved in the basic cognitive cycle. This integration may be done in many ways, but one simple approach is: 1
