However, MOSES explicitly embodies evolutionary dynamics for the learning of new patterns and procedures that

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,

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.

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

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
