During World War I, the British Health and Munitions (2008)

Robert R. Hoffman, Patrick Hayes, Kenneth M. Ford, R. Hoffman, Patrick J. Hayes, Kenneth M. Ford

Afundamental stance taken in human-centered computing is that information-processing devices must be thought of in systems terms. At first blush, this seems self-evident. However, the notion has a...

James M. Nyce, R. Hoffman, Patrick J. Hayes, Kenneth M. Ford

So, what is an end user, really? And what do we really mean by the procurement process? Human factors researchers often take certain agendas, terms, and theories for granted or rely on them out of...

Human-Centered Computing The Sacagawea Principle Mica Endsley, SA Technologies (2008)

Robert R. Hoffman, Machine Cognition, R. Hoffman, Patrick J. Hayes, Kenneth M. Ford

Many software tools and systems restrict the availability of information and make information integration and exploration difficult. 1 Poorly designed tools are often brittle, because they prescribe...

Human-Centered Computing Keeping It Too Simple: How the Reductive Tendency Affects Cognitive Engineering (2008)

Paul J. Feltovich, Robert R. Hoffman, Machine Cognition, David Woods, Axel Roesler, R. Hoffman, ...

Certain features of tasks make them especially difficult for humans. These constitute leverage points for applying intelligent technologies, but there’s a flip side. Designing complex cognitive...

Editor Blurb Editor Blurb continued Email address Human-Centered Computing (2008)

Gary Klein, Karol G. Ross, Brian M. Moon, Klein Associates, Devorah E. Klein, Insight Product Development, ...

If we engineer complex cognitive systems on the basis of mistaken or inappropriate views of cognition, we can wind up designing systems that degrade performance rather than improve it. The results...

Towards Checking Hybrid Proofs (2008)

Patrick J. Hayes, Deborah L. Mcguinness, Richard Fikes, Priyendra Deshwal

The distributed and heterogeneous nature of today’s applications such as the Web implies that a variety of agents may participate in answering questions. Since multiple agents with various...

Human-Centered Computing Work-arounds, Make-work, and Kludges (2007)

Philip Koopman, Robert R. Hoffman, Machine Cognition, R. Hoffman, Patrick J. Hayes, Kenneth M. Ford

Paradigms are often defined partly in terms of what they are not, or in terms of what they are reacting against. The paradigm of human-centered computing is no exception. In response to an essay in...

The Giant: An Agentbased Approach to Knowledge Construction (1998)

Thomas R. Reichherzer, Alberto J. Cañas, Kenneth M. Ford, Patrick J. Hayes

The purpose of this paper is to report on a research project of a software agent, called the Giant, to support knowledge construction and sharing among learners. The Giant is embedded in an...

The Giant: A Classroom Collaborator (1998)

Thomas R. Reichherzer, Alberto J. Cañas, Kenneth M. Ford, Patrick J. Hayes

The purpose of this paper is to report on the research involved in the development of a software agent—the Giant — that collaborates with students in their construction and sharing of knowledge....

Why Gödel's Theorem Cannot Refute Computationalism (1998)

Geoffrey Laforte, Patrick J. Hayes, Kenneth M. Ford

Gdel's theorem is consistent with the computationalist hypothesis. Roger Penrose, however, claims to prove that Gdel's theorem implies that human thought cannot be mechanized. We review his...

On babies and bathwater: A cautionary tale (1994)

Patrick J. Hayes, Kenneth M. Ford, Neil Agnew

■ One should not throw out the baby with the bathwater, according to an old aphorism. Some popular recent positions in AI thinking have done just this, we suggest, by rejecting the useful idea of...

Modeling Our Adaptive Intelligence, Not God's (1993)

Hayes, Patrick J., Ford, Kenneth M.

Fetzer misunderstands our use of the term "frame problem", taking the term to refer to, contrary to the original definition (McCarthy, 1963), a larger problem of change, which is an instance of the...

Irrelevance Reasoning In Knowledge Based Systems (1993)

Alon Yitzchak Levy, Richard E. Fikes, Edward A. Feigenbaum, Patrick J. Hayes, Nils J. Nilsson, Yehoshua C. Sagiv

Speeding up inferences made from large knowledge bases is a key to scaling up knowledge based systems. To do so, a system must have the ability to automatically identify and ignore information that...
