ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a knowledge machine method and apparatus for processing information and evolving knowledge. The apparatus includes at least one processor; a knowledge machine including a main memory operatively connected to the processor(s), and a plurality of knowledge machine hardware modules at least indirectly connected to the main memory. The modules include a communication module, a switching module, an administrative module and at least one knowledge base module. There is also hardware, firmware and software in the knowledge machine hardware modules to enable the modules to perform at least the following functions: for the communication module, to control all functional processes of the other modules, the main memory and the processor(s); for the switching module, to select and switch between selected information; for the administrative module, to perform housekeeping functions, including multitasking control with resource allocation, real-time multitasking and scheduling of tasks; for the knowledge base module(s), to operate knowledge processing functions and to store knowledge data banks. In some preferred embodiments, the knowledge processing functions of the knowledge base module may be logical, inductive, associative, inferential and deductive reasoning type functions.
