• One node per concept
• Spreading activation, constraint satisfaction, settling
• Normally hard-wired
• Variable-binding problem: markers, phases, etc. as a way of implementing binding
• Instantiation: activation across existing concept nodes (problem of multiple instantiations) or new network structure
• Use in disambiguation
