This paper provides introductory discussion on the M system. M is a study of an architecture that supports integrated multiple reasoning processes and representations. This architecture has been applied and evolved through a series of different domain problems: 1. Wolfgang, a system that learns to compose music (Riecken 1989,1992a), 2. adaptive user interfaces (Riecken 1991a, 1991b, 1992b), and 3. the M system (Riecken 1994), a software program that acts as an assistant to a user by classifying and managing domain objects in a multimedia conferencing system.
