• Cognitive Computing is the simulation of how the Human Brain works (gets information by its senses -images, tastes, touches, sounds,etc-, then it study that information (process), then associates that information to a patterns, analyze it, then establishes a conclusion of what that information is a what action should taken in order to learn and save the learning pattern, protect, answer, react or calm down and relax, depending on the conclusion determined after information have been processed.
• Every brain interaction is a learning experience, no matter how relevant it is. The brain does not save all the processed information it receives from its natural senses, it only saves the learning patterns that helps it to remember the previous experience and use it in the next similar experience.
• In a certain way Cognitive Systems do the same: analyze, reason, and learn every time more and more. If a new Computing System includes this three basic human brain features, it is considered a Cognitive System. This new way of creating things will affect humans a lot, obviously. A new era for Hardware, Firmware, Software, Infrastructure, and other existing computing technologies, is just starting.
• IBM Cognitive Computing Technologies is very powerful to create new ways of Programming, Information Systems, and Unstructured Data Processing. Now the Hardware, Software, and Data are only the fundamental basis for Cognitive interactions with Human beings.
