These include the potential for general self-augmentation (i .e ., learning of new behavior) and the ability to function in complex environments. The production system language, OPS, was implemented to lest these claims. In this paper we explore some of the issues that bear ·on the design of production system languages and try to show the adequacy of OPS for its intended .purpose.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1977/220","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1977/0220.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1977/220.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1977/bibtex/220","volume":{"slug":"1977","title":"Proceedings of the Fifth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1977","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1977/","year":1977,"location":"Cambridge, MA, USA","dates":"","editors":"Raj Reddy","isbn":"","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence","doi_prefix":""},"section":"Languages and Systems","track":"Languages and Systems","number":220,"pages":{"first":933,"last":938},"keywords":[],"videos":[],"references":[],"license_note":"Copyright International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence."}
