We assert that there exists a broad range of applications for computational cognitive modeling that have been largely unexplored. In some cases, data mining and expert systems approaches have been utilized to accomplish similar objectives. However, there are distinct advantages that come from basing technologies on human-like computational cognitive models. This paper describes several illustrations of the technologies that may be created based on realistic computer models of human knowledge and cognitive processes.
