Abstract

This paper examines the CLARION cognitive architecture as a framework for constructing IVAs. CLARION is a unified, comprehensive theory of the mind based on a hybrid architecture able to represent both implicit and explicit knowledge. We examine several features of CLARION as they relate to the construction of IVAs.
