Here, several leading experts in the area of cognitive science summarize their current research programs, tracing Herbert A. Simon's influence on their own work -- and on the field of information processing at large. Topics covered include problem- solving, imagery, reading, writing, memory, expertise, instruction, and learning. Collectively, the chapters reveal a high degree of coherence across the various specialized disciplines within cognition -- a coherence largely attributable to the initial unity in Simon's seminal and pioneering contributions.

This unique volume focuses on computing systems that exhibit intelligent behavior. As such, it discusses research aimed at building a computer that has the same cognitive architecture as the mind -- permitting evaluations of it as a model of the mind -- and allowing for comparisons between computer performance and experimental data on human performance. It also examines architectures that permit large, complex computations to be performed -- and questions whether the computer so structured can handle these difficult tasks intelligently.

Based on a symposium honouring the work of Allen Newell, one of the founders of artificial intelligence, cognitive science, human-computer interaction and the systematic study of computational architecture. This volume incorporates the work of research scientists, inspired by Allen's work.

This volume explores the concept of implicit memory, taking it to mean that prior experience affects behaviour without the individual's appreciation of this influence. It also examines the opposite concept, metacognition, and explores the inter-relationship between the two fields.
