Agent migration, and machines joining or leaving the CogPrime cluster. So, at the Unit level, attention allocation in CogPrime has two aspects: how MindAgents and Tasks receive attention from CogPrime, and how Atoms receive attention from different MindAgents and Tasks. The topic of this Section is the fo

TruthValues are context-dependent, and useful Atoms will typically have multiple TruthValues. indexed by context. • Some Atoms are nodes, and may have names.

The CogPrime design gravitates more toward the latter approach. though also with some specific mechanisms within various MindAgents; and efforts have been made to have these specific mechanisms modulated by the generic attention allocation structures and dynamics wherever possibl

This allows the system to separately account for the frequency of a given percep- tual item in a given interaction channel. However, no specific mec

sambigua- tion that needs to be done to get the structure of the resultant Atom-set correct. Any further disambiguation is left to be done later, by MindAgents acting on the Atom-sets after they've already been placed in the AtomSpace. • In the old approach, the RelEx2Frame rules attempted, in many cases,

MindAgents operating primarily on one kind of knowledge (e.g. MOSES, PLN) may for a time seek to follow the shortest paths within their particular correspondin
