Abstract

A thinking system and method is provided by the present invention. In the present invention, the “thinking” system is capable of accepting information from outside environment, analyzing the information, requesting additional information, and then resulting the problem. More particularly, the system can make new rules according to the information within the system and the new information received and requested. The rule making process is not controlled by outside command, but by an internal controlling mechanism that can be modified by the outside commands. Further, the system comprises a knowledge structure that can be used by the system for analyzing the inputted information, making request for additional information, making new rules, and solving problems, wherein the knowledge structure comprises element files include direct link information of the elements with other elements of the element files in the knowledge structure.

Dependent claims

A method for operating a human-made thinking system including one or more CPU's, one or more I/O devices, and one or more memories, comprising the steps of :

(a) establishing in said one or more memories a knowledge structure comprising a file organizing mechanism, and more than one element file wherein each element file individually and separately includes identifying information and knowledge information corresponding to only one element;
wherein the identifying information categorizes and identifies the corresponding element, wherein the knowledge information includes knowledge about the corresponding element, wherein the knowledge is information related to at least one direct link of each element with one or more elements of the knowledge structure thus connects element to at least one other element;
(b) establishing a process structure comprising at least one process file;
(c) establishing an execution system comprising an internal control mechanism, and at least one thinking mode;
wherein the internal control mechanism includes at least one internal control rule, and at least one structure rule, wherein the thinking mode includes at least one corresponding thinking rule;
(d) running the executing system wherein the internal control mechanism can operate without human intervention wherein the thinking mode can be activated according o the internal control rules of internal control mechanism;
wherein according to the thinking rule, a direct link between a first existing element and a second existing element can be used to establish one or more new direct links between said first existing element and at least one other existing element that has an existing direct link with said second existing element;
wherein according to the thinking rule, process files can be used to establish new direct links between the existing elements, and store or output said new direct links as desired.
