Question

The approach by ___ (with a few minor refinements) was implemented 2300 years later by Newell and Simon in their GPS program, about which they write (Newell and Simon, 1972). The main methods of GPS jointly embody the heuristic of means-ends analysis.

Answer 1

Answer:

The approach by Aristotle (with a few minor refinements) was implemented 2300 years later by Newell and Simon in their GPS program, about which they write (Newell and Simon, 1972). The main methods of GPS jointly embody the heuristic of means-ends analysis.

Explanation:

Aristotle’s approach (with a few minor refinements) was implemented 2300 years later by Newell  and Simon in their GPS program, about which they write (Newell and Simon, 1972):

The main methods of GPS jointly embody the heuristic of Means–ends ANALYSIS , typified by the following kind of common-sense argument, sorting between what one has and what one wants, needs, or the difficulty implied,  classifying things according to the functions they give solution to and oscillating  among ends, functions required, and means that perform them. This  analysis does not indicate what to do when the actions will achieve the  goal, though, or when no achievement will be reached by the action.
