Motivated Thinking
At one time or another, every one of us has engaged in “wishful thinking,” or “let our hearts influence our heads.” That is, every one of us has felt the effects of our motivations on our thought processes.

متن کاملMotivated Action Theory: a Formal Theory of Causal Reasoning
When we reason about change over time, causation provides an implicit preference: we prefer sequences of situations in which one situation leads causally to the next, rather than sequences in which one situation follows another at random and without causal connections. In this paper, we explore the problem of temporal reasoning—reasoning about change over time—and the crucial role that causatio...
متن کاملInformal DEVS Conventions Motivated by Practical Considerations
The formalism known as the Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS) provides a set of mathematical elements for modeling time-varying systems. When DEVS is applied in the form of an executable representation, however, some deviation from the formalism is unavoidable. By proposing a set of informal DEVS conventions, we show how certain changes to the formalism, some previously adopted, others ...
