1. A method of simulating human behavior for interacting with environment, comprising:
- defining resources that simulate the human behavior based upon resource definitions, said resource definitions defining at least cognition, sensory, motor and metacognition based upon attributes;
representing certain internal aspects of said resources in symbolic knowledge;
storing said symbolic knowledge in a predetermined metacognitive memory;
updating said symbolic knowledge for each of said resources in response to any change that is related to said resources; and
managing said resources for at least one cognitive task based upon said symbolic knowledge.

Abstract
The human behavior simulator and method with metacognitive capability enhances the quality of simulation for behavioral simulation and decision making processes by generating, storing and updating information on internal aspects of the resources that are involved in processing cognitive tasks. A cognitive proprioception unit detects any internal change among the resources and updates symbolic knowledge that represent the internal aspects of the resources.

26. A computer program for providing real-time adaptive decision support, comprising:
-
a predetermined set of resources for accomplishing a set of predetermined tasks;
a cognitive module connected to said resources for executing at least one of the tasks, said cognitive module further including a cognitive scheduler, the task being defined by a task control declaration and being managed by said cognitive scheduler; and
a metacognitive module operationally connected to said cognitive module and having a metacognition process control module, a metacognition memory and a metacognition scheduler, in response to said cognitive module said metacognitive module updating symbolic information on self-awareness of said resources in said metacognition memory in response to any change that is related to said resources, said metacognition process control module reordering the tasks in said cognitive scheduler based upon said symbolic information and said metacognitive scheduler module. - View Dependent Claims (27, 28, 29)
