Architecture for Socio-Cultural Modeling (original) (raw)

Abstract

The proposed architecture for socio-cultural modeling is based on the concept of social object that has been instantiated in the form of scenarios. Players of these scenarios are called agents who/that have cognitive functions. Anytime a scenario is developed with domain experts, emergent cognitive functions are generated. It is the incremental inductive generation of cognitive function networks that progressively shape purposeful social objects.
