Abstract:

A working memory model based on a semantic network is described in detail. Some advantages and disadvantages of such a model are discussed. An attempt is made to enable a reader to learn to perform the formidable task of representing data in the memory format. Since the actual memory is not easily read or written, a set of LISP programs are included which make these tasks manageable.
