Abstract

Understanding how humans manage information and carry out actions provides a foundation for the software engineering of intelligent control systems. The Real-time Control System (RCS) design methodology and reference architecture, founded on human information management concepts, provides a domain independent approach to the acquisition and representation of expert knowledge and supports implementation in a form conducive to maintenance of the knowledge base. Its architecture provides a structured framework for sensory, semantic, episodic, and procedural knowledge.
