Hi,
The
general BDI concept is hard to argue with -- minds need beliefs, desires and
intentions. Slide 6 of the www.cs.toronto.edu presentation you cite
below, is certainly applicable to Novamente. The goals are Goalnodes and
goal maps, the precompiled plans are composite schemata, the plans are schemata
and schema maps, the beliefs are declarative nodes and
links...
The
problem is that the BDI framework only tells you 10% of what's needed to make an
intelligent agent. And the simplistic BDI agents that have been
implemented seem to lack the other 90% ;-) So they're interesting toys
rather than serious AGI systems, in my view...

Existing agent models emphasize an intentional notion of agency – the
supposition that agents should be understood primarily in terms of mental
concepts such as beliefs, desires and intentions. The BDI model (Rao and
Georgeff, 1991, 1995) is a paradigm of this kind of agent, although some
attempts to include social aspects have been made.
yallara.cs.rmit.edu.au/~ldesilva/doc/cs435.pdf This document says BDI was developed by A. Rao and M.
Georgeff in 1991 based on work by Bratman 1987 and Singh 1991.

ferramenta X-BDI foi desenvolvida com a intenção de diminuir a distância que
existe entre teorias formais para especificação de agentes cognitivos e sua
programação.
