COGNITIVE COMPUTING
Abstract
(U) The Cognitive Computing project will develop core technologies that enable computing systems to learn, reason and apply knowledge gained through experience, and to respond intelligently to new and unforeseen events. These technologies will lead to systems with increased self reliance, cooperative behavior, and the capacity to reconfigure themselves and survive with reduced programmer intervention. These capabilities will make the difference between mission success and mission degradation or failure, even in the event of cyber-attack or component attrition resulting from kinetic warfare or accidental faults and errors. Systems that learn and reason will reduce the requirement for skilled system administrators and dramatically reduce the overall cost of system maintenance. As the military moves towards a dynamic expeditionary force, it is critical for systems to become more self sufficient.
