Simon REFERENCES This project is an attempt to build the catalogue for Artificial Intelligence books. I would proudly say I used Internet as a least preferable source for getting information, although I know I could have found many more on internet. What I tried to do was to collect all books that exist in the CUNY (City University of NY) library database. So that it would make students and readers to know range of books that exist in CUNY and also provide them exact location to find those books. Other than that what I tried to do, was to get the reference books usually found at the end of each books as references. This was a much better source as it gave me the exact books related to the research topic. In this assignment I tried to avoid the duplication of records, if in case there exist one, I am sorry for that. Enjoy!

Simon focuses mainly on the human thinking and information processing. Human system is considered, as a system constitute of many parts like sensory subsystems, memory, effectors, arousal subsystems, and so on. It shows many of the dimensions along which the total human system can vary. Mainly three issues are put under consideration in this research. These are: Task dimension Human behaves in different classes of situations. For example walks, talks, reads etc. Performance learning development dimensions By keeping the task environment control, one can distinguish in performing a task, earning a task, and devel
