Abstract
This paper provides an overview into the use of ACT-R as a cognitive architecture in the military. ACT-R stands for Adaptive Control of Thought - Rational. It is a cognitive architecture, a framework for a human like AI program, that models the human mind. In this paper its use will be examined in the military. Through this literary survey an overview will be created of the military’s usage of ACT-R. The overview will answer the questions in which applications the military uses ACT-R and why they use ACT-R. It will bring understanding to the people of how ACT-R is used in the military. It will also give insight into where their tax money is being spent on. For the military an overview will come in handy in case ACT-R gets outdated. They will know what programs will need an update. The overview consists of three parts. A robotics operator manager, a test to determine the value of an officer managing multiple robots. The creation of intelligent tutoring systems for ship navigation and aircraft recognition. A supporting tool for analysts to help determine the value of information.
