2.4.2 Analysis of other domains. Identification of Layers 0
This task is concerned with establishing the specific variables and parameters
defining continuous process, web and biological domains. The collection of entities
identified will constitute a specification of the corresponding Layer 0 for these
domains.
2.4.3 Construction of a Layer Model Specification (LMS)
This task will be devoted to clearly defining criteria and/or procedures for classifying
concepts and functions into a specific layer.
It is envisaged that the definition of Layer 1 resulting from Line I, centered in the
robotic domain, will yield a taxonomy of cognitive functions which will be of
application to the major part of systems, not only robotic, but cross-domain.
However, it may occur that new cognitive functions, not present in the original Layer
1 specification, could appear when exploring the other domains considered. This task
will consist on integrating these eventual new entities coherently with the existing
Layer 1.
2.4.4 Programming of extended Layer 1
A complete and appropriate cognitive framework will result from II.2. Analogously to
I.3.3., this task will consist on implementing the definitive Layer 1 (constructing the
transition between Layers 1 and 0).
2.4.5 Constructing Virtual Physical Platforms
Analogously to the robotic simulator, building a virtual continuous process plant, an
informational simulator, and a virtual rat, namely ICEAsim. |
