AM

   1. <communications> {Amplitude Modulation}.

   2. <artificial intelligence> A program by {Doug Lenat} to
   discover concepts in elementary mathematics.  AM was written
   in 1976 in {Interlisp}.  From 100 fundamental concepts and
   about 250 {heuristics} it discovered several important
   mathematical concepts including subsets, disjoint sets, sets
   with the same number of elements, and numbers.  It worked by
   filling slots in {frames} maintaining an agenda of
   resource-limited prioritised tasks.

   AM's successor was {Eurisko}.
