SPECIAL ISSUE ON: COGNITIVE ARCHITECTURES FOR ARTIFICIAL MINDS Journal of Cognitive Systems Research http://www.journals.elsevier.com/cognitive-systems-research/call-for-papers/special-issue-on-cognitive-architectures-for-artificial-mind INTRODUCTION The design and adaptation of Cognitive Architectures (CA) is a wide and active area of research in Cognitive Science, Artificial Intelligence and, more recently, in the areas of Computational Neuroscience, Cognitive Robotics, and Computational Cognitive Systems. Cognitive architectures have been historically introduced i) to capture, at the computational level, the invariant mechanisms of human cognition, including those underlying the functions of reasoning, control, learning, memory, adaptivity, perception and action, ii) to form the basis for the development of cognitive capabilities through ontogeny over extended periods…
