Hi Sandra,

In the course of doing some work on action recognition in video, I 
implemented a bridge between ACT-R and Scott Fahlman's SCONE knowledge 
base system (http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~sef/scone/). One advantage of this 
is that both systems are written in Lisp, so integration is extremely 
straightforward. SCONE is flexible enough to encode a wide range of 
conceptual knowledge, if you choose to use it that way. Let me know if 
you would like more details and I can send you the implementation of my 
bridge.

best,
Jerry
