A Framework of Cognitive Situation Modeling and Recognition

This paper scopes the issues of situation management in dynamic systems, defines the basic concepts, and identifies several key enabling technologies. Particular focus of the paper is given to situation modeling. The paper reviews the major aspects of situation modeling and discusses associated technologies, including situation calculus, situation semantics, situation control, situation awareness and others. In more detail, we present an approach to situation modeling and management which is based on combining multi-agent systems and event correlation
