Analyst-independent technologies (AITs)
● NASA needs AIT’s for manned and unmanned
space exploration.
● Autonomous robots can fly on their own or help the
astronauts.
● All our current technolgies are analyst-dependent.
● Extricating the analyst from software requires
understanding the analyst.
● Understanding the analist means understanding the
brain.
The brain
AND
The brain is a computer
● Cognition
● In host-guest systems: guest
● We learn
● We remember
● We know
● We decide
● Do we think?
● Do we reason?
I believe that cognition is a giant memory of
behaviors, stored as a hierarchy of
structures. Then, an unconscious
mechanism that von Helmholtz called UI and
I call EI generates new structures, and again
stores them as behaviors in our cognition for
us to use.
The brain is an organ
● Unconscious
● In host-guest systems: host
● Where is the unconscious?
● What does it do?
● Hermann von Helmholtz
● Sigmund Freud

The Great Unsolved Automation Problems
of Software Engineering (GUAPs)
The automation of:
● Object generation (80’s)
● Refactoring (90’s)
● Integration (2000’s)
● Self-programming (2010’s)
● Parallel Programming
● Image Recognition
● Semantic Web
● Ontologies
● Robots
● ... and counting.
All these problems have exact mathematical
solutions that can be found by emergent inference.

Plan and Conclusions
● All current technolgies are analyst-dependent.
● Anayst-independent thecnologies are needed for
space exploration, both manned or unmanned.
● EI provides the only way to extricate the analyst.
● EI should be developed in USA.
● NASA may develop EI.
● Step 1: independent verification.
● Step 2: development.
● Step 3: application in robotics.
