Multiple issues one source November 2008 cleanup November 2008 refimprove November 2008 Metaknowledge or meta knowledge is knowledge about a preselected knowledge. For the reason of different definitions of knowledge in the subject matter literature, meta information is or is not included in meta knowledge. Detailed cognitive, systemic and epistemology epistemic study of human knowledge requires a distinguishing of these concepts. but in the common language knowledge includes information, and, for example, bibliographic data are considered as a meta knowledge. Meta knowledge is a fundamental conceptual instrument in such research and scientific domains as, knowledge engineering , knowledge management , and others dealing with study and operations on knowledge, seen as a unified object philosophy object entities, abstracted from local conceptualizations and terminologies. Examples of the first level individual meta knowledge are methods of planning, modeling, knowledge tags tagging , learning and every modification of a domain knowledge . Of course, universal meta knowledge frameworks have to be valid for the organization of meta levels of individual meta knowledge. Put simpler, metaknowledge may be linked to knowledge you need but you don t yet possess it is a cluster of definitions and methods aiming to guide you in gathering the pertinent knowledge with regard to your activity.

The transaction is logically smooth but unpredictable if the father guesses that the child will be returned, but a dilemma arises for the crocodile if he guesses that the child will not be returned. class wikitable If the Crocodile decides to KEEP the child, and the Father predicted the child would be KEPT then the outcome is A PARADOX. If the Crocodile decides to KEEP the child, and the Father predicted the child would be RETURNED then the outcome is THE CHILD IS KEPT. If the Crocodile decides to RETURN the child, and the Father predicted the child would be RETURNED then the outcome is THE CHILD IS RETURNED. If the Crocodile decides to RETURN the child, and the Father predicted the child would be KEPT then the outcome is A PARADOX. The question of what the crocodile should do is therefore paradox ical, and there is no justifiable solution. ref name lect cite book title Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence publisher Springer Verlag year 1989 isbn 3540530827 page 14 editor J.

In artificial intelligence , a procedural reasoning system PRS is a framework for constructing real time reasoning systems that can perform complex tasks in dynamic environments. It is based on the notion of a rational agent or intelligent agent using the belief desire intention software model . A user application is predominately defined, and provided to a PRS system is a set of knowledge areas . Each knowledge area is a piece of procedural knowledge that specifies how to do something, e.g., how to navigate down a corridor, or how to plan a path in contrast with robotic architectures where the computer programmer programmer just provides a model of what the states of the world are and how the agent s primitive actions affect them . Such a program, together with a PRS interpreter computing interpreter , is used to control the agent. The interpreter is responsible for maintaining beliefs about the world state, choosing which goals to attempt to achieve next, and choosing which knowledge area to apply in the current situation. How exactly these operations are performed might depend on domain specific metaknowledge meta level knowledge areas. Unlike traditional computer planning AI planning systems that generate a complete plan at the beginning, and replan if unexpected things happen, PRS interleaves planning and doing actions in the world. At any point, the system might only have a partially specified plan for the future. PRS is based on the BDI software agent BDI or belief desire intention framework for intelligent agents. Beliefs consist of what the agent believes to be true about the current state of the world, desires consist of the agent s goals, and intentions consist of the agent s current plans for achieving those goals. Furthermore, each of these three components is typically explicitly represented somewhere within the memory of the PRS agent at runtime, which is in contrast to purely reactive systems, such as the subsumption architecture .
