Generic functional requirements for this task include : integration of perception, reasoning , and action; integration of multiple reasoning activities; reasoning about complex, timevarying systems; coordination of multiple response modes; dynamic allocation of limited c omputational resources . We illustrate these re quirements in the domain of patient monitoring in a surgical intensive care unit (SICU). We propose a generic architecture, designed and implemented in layers: top-level system organization ; reasoning architecture; generic reasoning skills and knowledge representation; firstprinciples knowledge of physical systems; domain knowledge . We illustrate the architecture in the \" Guardian\" system for SICU monitoring and describe Guardian's performance on an illustrative scenario . Finally, we discuss the generality and limitations of the proposed archite c ture.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1989/39","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1989/0039.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1989/39.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1989/bibtex/39","volume":{"slug":"1989","title":"Proceedings of the Eleventh International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1989","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1989/","year":1989,"location":"Detroit, Michigan, USA","dates":"August 20-25 1989","editors":"N.
