Knowledge Representations+DAS (Distributed AtomSpace)

Responsible: André Senna

DAS is a high-speed, dynamic memory fabric for massive, mutable hypergraphs. It decouples vast persistence (Long-Term Importance) from immediate attention dynamics (Short-Term Importance in RAM), governed by an Attention Broker that constrains search space to relevant atoms.

Distributed query

Shows how DAS queries leverage the Attention Broker to efficiently search across distributed Atomspaces.

; DAS distributed hypergraph query ; Attention Broker constrains search !(das-query (pattern (Inheritance $x Animal)) (importance-threshold 0.7) (max-results 10)) ; Returns atoms with STI > 0.7 ; matching the inheritance pattern
