Abstract:
The current state of work in ‘Swarm-array computing’ requires the theoretical concepts proposed in the framework to be formalised. As a preliminary effort to this end, a recently proposed computational intelligence based hierarchical layered architecture for cognitive agents is mapped onto the intelligent agent based approach of swarm-array computing. The cognitive capabilities of two components of the intelligent agent based approach, namely an agent and a swarm, are considered and the components view of perception, reasoning, judging, response and learning are presented. The layered cognitive architecture maps well onto the microscopic or agent level than on the macroscopic or swarm level of the intelligent agent approach.
