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

nic Atoms have natural names. For instance. the Schemallode corresponding to the ele- mentary schema function + may quite naturally be named "+". The NumberNode corresponding to the number .5 may naturally be named ".5", and the CharacterNode corresponding to the character c may naturally be named "c". Thes

d effort management frameworks attempt to enforce this, via minimizing the amount of effort spent by the system in getting to a certain conclusion. 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
