d reasoning, but also a process of acting on the real world. We deem these powerful processes and functions as cognitive functions. In this section, we are willing to introduce our core research contributions- Cognitive NGSDP. Cognitive Science and Cognitive Networks are introduced first to further explain and understand cognitive functions. After that, domain design patterns are discussed to better understand how we can make it work for practical applications. Then the whole Cognitive NGSDP, including the model, relevant theories and technologies, and feasible solutions, are finally described this section. We hope our research on Cognitive NGSDP can contribute to actual performance and intelligence considerations for NGSDP. 6.3.2 Cognitive Functions 6.3.2.1 Cognitive Science Cognitive intelligence comes from the discipline of cognitive science [41-45]. As indicated by Wikipedia, cognitive science is the study of mind or the study of thought. It embraces multiple research disciplines, including psychology, artificial intelligence, philosophy, neuroscience, linguistics, anthropology, sociology, Overview of Cognitive NGSDP Model and biology. It relies on varying scientific methodology (e.g., behavioral experi- mentation, computational simulations, neuro-imaging, statistical analyses), and spans many levels of analysis of the mind (from low-level learning and decision mechanisms to high-level logic and planning, from neural circuitry to modular brain organization, etc.). In the beginning, research on cognitive science focused more on human behavior learning, analyzing, and stimulating, while more recently, cognitive science can be applied to several application areas for practical usage, such as Language processing, perception and action, computation model- ing, and SO on. At the same time, numerous emerging words, such as Cognitive Learning, Cognitive Modeling, Cognitive Networks, have been debated and researched to serve for real-world problems. From our group's perspective, cognitive intelligence can be considere
